Valachi Downs Royal Stakes (G2)

Age: 3yo Sex: F Type: OPEN

This G2 3yo filly only 2000m went to the odds on Two Illicit very comfortably and maintain her record of yet to miss the top three The winners and where they turned for home in race order were third (four-off the inside and two lengths from the leader), fifth (four-off the inside and two lengths from the leader), third (eight-off the inside and three lengths from the leader), led (six-off the inside and a length clear), second (three-off the inside and a neck from the leader), fifth (four-off the inside and six lengths from the leader), fourth (six-off the inside and a length from the leader), third (six-off the inside and length and a half from the leader), second (three-off the inside and a neck from the leader) and seventh (eight-off the inside and three lengths from the leader). Two Illicit had a nice run sixth the outer and moved wide before the home turn before striding up to lead 400m out and never ever looked like getting beaten scoring by over a length in 2:05.23. Today was her third win five starts (once at Listed and now at G2) and she also has a second at G2 and placing in a maiden on debut. After today she would race twice more for a G2 win (by seven and a half lengths) at 2000m beating the boys as well and then ran second in the G1 NZ Derby (2400m) as an even money favourite. Bergamot fought well for second after doing a bit of work to go up outside the leader while Lilikoi ran an honest third after racing handy the outer and having every chance. Coci Baci ran a good fourth and the Australian bred filly has some upside. Darci Que had every chance from the trail while Kaipaki Road was an eyecatching sixth. Celestial Nymph ran home well for seventh beaten six lengths at $60 and Diamonds Galore at $55 was not bad either after getting back and being angled wide. This was not a strong field outside the winner Two Illicit which has made this an even stronger result since with her exploits. The form of those that finished behind Two Illicit today has not stood up that well since but some of these were bred to want a mile and a half or many need give in the ground or were sprinter-milers having a two furlong throw at the stumps. Two Illicit outclassed her opposition that in the main should win their share of races as 4yo mares but today they were in a lower division than her.
