Four of the five fillies in our 2019 filly partnership have won on debut, and, after a winning debut at Murray Bridge on 22nd July, Celestine took this to the next step at Morphettville on 15th August.
She again showed great speed to be up with the pace, and despite again running a bit green under pressure with Barend Vorster aboard, she powered away from her rivals to win in great style.
She next heads to the Flemington straight on 23rd September, which hopefully serves as a good grounding for her to tackle the black type races back there in November at the Melbourne Cup carnival. Big thanks go to her trainers Tony and Calvin McEvoy, who have been very patient in nurturing this Nicconi filly to produce her best.
Congratulations to her owners Rob Love, Gary Diamond, Wilf & Rosemary Mula, Kevin & Lesley Maloney, Mike Symons & Anna Grace, Mark & Jia Wizel, Josh Rutman, Kevin Tong, Nathan Mufale, Rorey James, Justin Dowers and Trent Weir.
