Stakes Goal for Onemorenomore Filly

Media Release - Friday July 25
Craig Grylls is chasing a "purfect" result in Saturday's Listed $50,000 Courtesy Ford Ryder Stakes (1200m) at Otaki with exciting filly Purcentage, an unbeaten daughter of Australian first season sire Onemorenomore.

The leading Matamata jockey will take his chances with the Graham Richardson-trained Purcentage, who created a big impression with an ever-increasing three and a-half length win at Avondale on debut earlier this month.

Purcentage as a yearling"She looks a really nice filly," Grylls said. "It was a top win the other day. I knew she wasgood from riding her at the trials but that was still a pretty good effort.

"Her work has been top class since then and she should be pretty hard to beat. I'm pretty confident actually."

Purcentage was a $250,000 NZB Premier Yearling and was the most expensive yearling filly from the first crop of her Group I winning sire.

TAB bookmakers have Purcentage as a $3.00 favourite for the two-year-old feature, ahead of fellow unbeaten youngsters Bel Sorriso at $4.60, Niki Piki Milo at $6.00 and Lincoln Street at $7.50. Also at $7.50 was Elusive Catch, who has won her last two starts.

Grylls rated the Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young-trained Wowowow as the next best of his five rides at Otaki.

Meanwhile, Grylls was excited about the prospect of reuniting with his Group One-winning mount Viadana for next month's Gr.3 Foxbridge Plate (1200m) at Te Rapa.

The Lance Noble-trained Viadana is set to resume in the weight-for-age sprint before tackling the Gr.1 Windsor Park Plate (1600m) at Hastings in September.

"She's coming up really well. I've ridden her in a couple of gallops and she feels very good. I can't wait to get back on her raceday,"Grylls said. – NZ Racing Desk.
