Form Reversal for China Horse Club Filly

Tara Madgwick - Thursday September 3
Denman filly Alpina was the equal most expensive filly by her sire sold in 2014 when purchased by the China Horse Club at Inglis Easter and she scored an impressive win at Goulburn on Thursday to the great surprise of punters.

Alpina as a yearlingSpelled after a debut last in the Group II ATC Sweet Embrace Stakes won by Always Allison, she again finished last when resuming from a spell in a strong midweek maiden won by Serene Majesty.

Dropped back in grade for a 1200 metre maiden by her trainer John Thompson, Alpina turned it all around to lead throughout and win by more than three lengths.

Bred and consigned for sale by Sledmere Stud, Alpina fetched $300,000 at Inglis Easter and is a half-sister to Group III winner Politeness.

She is the third winner for Berengaria, a half-sister by Commands to Group II winner Thackeray and stakes-winner Fairytales, the dam of Group II winner Parables.

Berengaria has a yearling colt by Street Cry (IRE) and is due to foal to Snitzel.

Denman's classy sprinter Kuro is set to resume from a spell for new trainers Lee and Anthony Freedman this Saturday in the Group II MVRC McEwen Stakes at Moonee Valley on Saturday.

Denman stands at Darley at a fee of $27,500.
