Three trials for juveniles were run at Warwick Farm on Thursday morning with winners for Ciaron Maher, Bjorn Baker and the Waterhouse Bott stable.
The quickest of the three was the Waterhouse Bott trained Miss Malice, who was having her second trial and showed sharp improvement on her first when she travelled deep and was held together to finish fourth. This time the daughter of Hellbent drew the fence and led easily for Regan Bayliss and when asked to accelerate gave an immediate response to win by three lengths.
2nd trial a good one for this unraced Hellbent filly. Miss Malice (2f Hellbent x Misteed) for @GaiWaterhouse1 $150k at @mmsnippets Gold Coast from @amarina_farm to @REDFOX_Racing. 4th at first trial. @yarramanpark https://t.co/pQ60PJvZJX

Miss Malice was a $150,000 Magic Millions purchase from Amarina Farm for RedFox Racing, who have had plenty of luck with Hellbent, the sire of their $2million earning Group winner Fully Lit, also trained by Waterhouse and Bott.
Miss Malice is the second foal of fast metro winning Exceed and Excel mare Misteed, so is bred for speed.
Hellbent is also the sire of the Bjorn Baker trained filly Lady Hellbent, who was having her first outing and did a nice job to win by a neck over expensive Snitzel colt River of Rome, who made big improvement on his first trial and did his best work through the line.
2 nice trials. 1st Lady Hellbent (2f Hellbent x Bidii Babe) $80k @inglis_sales Aus Weanlings from @yarramanpark to Kaha Nui Farm the $100k to @BBakerRacing & @ClarkeBstock at @KarakaChat Book 1. 2nd River Of Rome (2c Snitzel x Iffranesia) $1.5mil at @mmsnippets GC to @TomMagnier from @ArrowfieldStud

Lady Hellbent was a $100,000 Karaka Book 1 purchase for Bjorn Baker Racing / Clarke Bloodstock from Kaha Nui Farm, who pinhooked the filly from Yarraman Park at the Inglis Weanling Sale for $80,000.
She is a three-quarter sister to stakes-placed Countyourblessings from stakes-winner Bidii Babe, who is by Not a Single Doubt and it’s not hard to see the influence of that stallion in this filly.
The Ciaron Maher trained Written By filly The Last Word flew out of the gates at her first outing and then settled outside the leader for Sam Clipperton. She was ridden along to find the line and won by a long neck over the much bigger I Am Invincible colt El Fuerte, who was also having his first trial.
First look at this Written By filly. The Last Word (2f Written By x Tune Doubt) for @cmaherracing $450k at @inglis_sales Premier from @GilgaiFarm to @AstuteBldstock. Sire's highest priced this year. 2nd of all time. @widdenstud https://t.co/D7K9BRCSon

The highest priced yearling filly ever sired by Written By, The Last Word was a $450,000 Inglis Premier purchase for Astute Bloodstock from Gilgai Farm and is a half-sister to stakes-placed True Tone and two more winners.
She is from unraced Not a Single Doubt mare Tune Doubt, a three-quarter sister to G3 winner Jukebox from SW Jestatune with G3 winner Bruckner another close relation, so this girl is bred for speed.
