Satin Ribbons powers home at Newcastle
A winner over the 900m distance at Newcastle on her second start last preparation, Satin Ribbons picked up where she left off this weekend back over the same course and distance. She again showed her customary brilliant speed to lead throughout and showed a great kick at the top of the straight to safely hold her rivals at bay.
She is the third winner from three to race for her dam, Satin Shoes, who was a JHB yearling purchase for her owners Edmund and Belinda Bateman and won the Group 2 Silver Slipper Stakes and was also third in the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes. She has already produced the Listed Gimcrack Stakes winner Satin Slipper (by Pierro) and the Sydney city winner Satin Socks (by Medaglia d’Oro) from her first two foals to race, both, like Satin Ribbons, trained by Peter and Paul Snowden.
Satin Shoes has an outstanding I Am Invincible filly on the ground who will be retained to race has a Zoustar filly on the ground and returns to I Am Invincible in 2021.
