Promising 3yo filly STACKS ON  won the second race of her career when she defeated a smart mid week field at Ascot yesterday. The lightly raced daughter of last seasons leading first season sire, SAXON, was having her first start for this campaign and only her fifth lifetime start. The filly had previously won over 1000m at Belmont earlier in the season as well as running a very close second at her race track debut.

After being slightly slow away, regular rider Jason Whiting was quick to put the filly into a commanding position before the corner and when asked for an effort in the straight she quickly set up a comfortable winning margin. Whilst the stock of SAXON should get better with age and when they step up to 1400m and further, I feel that this filly will always be best placed in short course racing.

The filly is not overly big however she is strong and sound and has a terrific will to win which should ensure she can maintain her current winning strike rate for a good bit longer yet. She is likely to have her next start in Saturday company in a couple of weeks.
