First Stakes-winner for Poet’s Voice

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday September 1
Darley's young Dubawi shuttler Poet's Voice (GB) posted his first stakes-winner overnight in the UK with Whitman taking out the Listed Ripon Champion 2YO Trophy.

The Mark Johnston trained Godolphin runner scored a tenacious victory taking the six furlong sprint by a head and has now won three of five starts.

A homebred for Darley, Whitman is the best of four winners from Group III winning Sunday Silence mare Sundrop, who comes from the famed Flame of Tara family via the branch that has produced Group I Breeders Cup Turf winner Northern Spur and New Zealand Oaks winner More Than Sacred.

Whitman is one eight first crop winners for Poet's Voice, a brilliant Group I winning miler by global sire sensation Dubawi, who has over 13% stakes-winners to runners and a string of Group I winners this year including Arabian Queen, New Bay, Postponed, Erupt and Prince Bishop, not to mention Srikandi in Australia.

Poet's Voice

Poet's Voice is back at Darley Kelvinside again this spring at a fee of $11,000 and will have his first Australian runners this season.
