We saw Bradbury's Luck filly RINGA RINGA ROSIE resume yesterday. Before her break she'd run a great 2nd to one of Australia's best 2YOs in PRESSDAY.

Yesterday's was her 8th run and she took on the older mares. While she wasn't opposed to champions, she picked them up in a twinkling and raced away for a resounding win.

She'll win plenty more in the best company.

Quite a few times she's made up a stack of ground in the last 200m, even her early runs did the same. Quite exciting to watch the way she accelerates.

Yes, Munce was shaking her up coming to the turn, but she once again produced a withering burst and beat them in a few strides.

Will be interesting to see what she does over longer. chin

Maybe she'll get up to a mile? A lot of sprint horses can't reproduce the explosive burst when they get over a mile.

She was ultra impressive, she seems to have an enormous stride, she looks a big mare(filly) my only worry is how she will handle herself in a big field, once out and rolling she is impressive

The talk before the race, was, why is she so short, the mares she was up against, were not walkers, with some nice form, around plain magic, and the likes, but she treated them with contempt, stepping up from her own age.

She is the real deal noteworthy

Fk what a crock I thought she was a cert and backed her accordingly - DD tipping her just confirmed my confidence. They were no good mares, hence I'm not getting overly excited about her just yet but I'll certainly keep following Thumb Up

She excites me.

Surely they have her on the next plane out of Queensland and run her in the Danehill ?

$3.80 was available on betfair.

I think she runs a mile okay - jock may have pulled the trigger a touch early in the T J Smith.

Trainer seems pretty keen on her.

From horseracingonly.com.au

Ringa Ringa Rosie could not have been more impressive when posting an emphatic first-up win over 1200m at Doomben on Saturday.

The manner in which Ringa Ringa Rosie achieved victory had trainer Bevan Laming, who is not prone to excitement or exaggeration, declaring that the daughter of Bradbury’s Luck could be the best horse he has trained. He qualified that by saying, ‘certainly the best filly.’

Few would argue that Ringa Ringa Rosie has champion potential. The filly didn’t need this result to have that rating.

In the three starts which comprised her previous campaign (her last as a two-year-old) Ringa Ringa Rosie won the Listed Hampden Stakes over 1200m, she finished third 0.30 lengths behind Run For Levi in the Listed Doomben Slipper over 1350m and she claimed second place, just 1.30 lengths behind Pressday (who was the find of the Carnival) over 1600m in the Group 1, T J Smith.

That Ringa Ringa Rosie came out firing in such convincing fashion fresh after a rest only cemented her standing.

Jockey Chris Munce settled Ringa Ringa Rosie towards the rear of the field in the early part. The filly raced in eighth place some six lengths off the front-running Falvelina. She improved up to seventh place and a little over five lengths back approaching the turn, but traffic problems now came into play.

Ringa Ringa Rosie was racing on the inside in behind runners. She quickly became cramped for galloping room and it looked momentarily that the gridlock in front of her would compromise her chances.

As Falvelina rallied and kicked on again early in the straight with Beyonce’s Star in tow, Munce angled Ringa Ringa Rosie away from the rail, still six lengths in arrears. It took a moment for Munce to balance up his mount. There was another brief delay while Munce weighed up his options before deciding on his run, but there was no hesitation once the rider gave Ringa Ringa Rosie the green light to lengthen her stride.

Only a good horse can round up runners the way Ringa Ringa Rosie reeled in the opposition. Like all good runners, although he task looked enormous, the response seemed effortless as Ringa Ringa Rosie showed superb acceleration to cruise to the front, getting there as early as the 100m mark.

From there, Munce just punched her out hands and heels over the concluding stages, still widening the gap on the rest. Ringa Ringa Rosie eventually crossed the line a full three lengths clear of Beyonce’s Star who got up by a head to relegate Falvelina back to third place in the final few strides.

WINNER FEEDBACK:
Trainer Bevan Laming: “There is so much improvement there. This could be the best horse I’ve trained, I think. Certainly the best filly.

“This filly has a lovely attitude. You can see the way she races … she is still learning. I haven’t put any pressure on her.

“She’s off to Melbourne now for the 1000 Guineas. The Oaks will be the main mission though. I’m confident with the mile-and-a-half. Her grandmother ran second in the Oaks, so there is a good bit of stamina in the pedigree.”

Jockey Chris Munce: “That acceleration is certainly the mark of a good horse.

“I was just saying to Mr. Laming, I was in a little bit of an awkward spot there approaching the corner, but when the runs came she took advantage of them.

‘”You know, I suppose that’s one thing that’s great when you’re riding for Bevan (Laming) … he sort of leaves it up to me.

“If I make a blue he doesn’t sort of carry on. He’s pretty good to ride for. It’s good to ride for a trainer who understands racing. At the end of the day it’s nice to be able to go in a relaxed frame of mind and let the horses do the talking.”

PRICE FLUCTUATIONS:
Winner (Ringa Ringa Rosie): 2.20 out to 2.80.
The winner was the favourite.
