TSR Weekly Wrap | 9 May 2022
What a night it was for us at Menangle on Saturday.
This was one to savor with a group 1 double thanks to the performances of Tough Tilly and Beyond Delight in the APG Gold Bullions Series finals for four-year-olds.
Tough Tilly lived up to her name with a tough run facing the breeze and then holding out Ladies In Red by a neck in 1:53.
What an exciting finish it was.
And to round out a memorable race, Joanna stuck on for third after leading.
Look at the record of all three mares:
Tough Tilly – 23 starts, 11-7-1, $467,633. Three group 1 wins, as a 2yo, 3yo and now 4yo.
Ladies In Red – 22 starts, 18-4-0, $610,000. Four group 1 wins as a 2yo and 3yo.
