Sorrento Stakes – Grade II 6 1/2 Furlongs Dirt Stake Purse $200.000 Filly 2 Year Olds.

1^st Sneaky Fantastique, trained by Yahudi Stables

This filly just doesn’t seem to know how to lose. She is now three from three and she has yet to win a race by more than a length. Today as usual she got back early on but came with her customary late run to just get up by a head on the line. Bought for $350.000 after a debut maiden win she is beginning to look like a very good buy and must head to the BC a very strong fancy already.

2^nd Dogs Money Maka, trained by Teamf Racing

Whilst the winner cost $350.000 after a debut run this one cost just $10.000 after hers and as she was only beaten a head you have to say she looks a bargain. Just run out of it after making the lead inside the final furlong she ran a cracker and looks to have a bright future. I would imagine these two could meet again but I think this was just about the best of her whilst Sneaky Fantastique looks to be improving.

3^rd Technomin, trained by The Sidley Stud

Kept on well enough for third but always looked held by the first two. I have no idea how she started at such low odds compared to the two fillies that beat her in the My Dear but clearly she has improved since that defeat and this was a decent effort after her win in black type in her penultimate start.

4^th Level Moon, trained by Asgar

Got into a close stalk but looked as if she just didn’t last home in the end finishing a close fourth. Its been a while since her win in the My Dear so she may have just needed this run.

5^th Red Rose Of Texas

Got the lead but faded late in a fair effort at her first attempt at black type.

6^th End Of Secrets

Ran the trail but never got into it.

7^th Due Know How

Started well enough but faded badly and ran nowhere near her run in the My Dear
