Pedicel (AUS) 2 f Redoute’s Choice – Cleanup by Dehere
Having her first start, Pedicel was eased from barrier nine and settled back in sixth place by James McDonald. The filly had to be coaxed along due to the quick early tempo before improving nearing the home turn.
She responded well, hitting the front at the 100 metre mark and fought back for a head victory in a time of 1:04.53. Click here to view the race.
The filly is out of the winning Dehere (Deputy Minister) mare Cleanup, whose other three foals to race have all been winners including Group Three-placed Nettoyer (Sebring).
Pedicel is a three-quarters sister to Tibbie Stakes (Gr 3, 1400m) winner She’s Clean (Redoute’s Choice).
Further back this is same family as Keltshaan (Pleasant Colony), who produced multiple Grade One winner Kinshasa No Kiseki (Fuji Kiseki) and the dam of Group One-winning pair Absolutely (Redoute’s Choice) and Abbey Marie (Redoute’s Choice) and Listed winner Runaway (Manhattan Rain).
Abbey Marie is due to be offered by Segenhoe Stud at the Magic Millions Gold Coast National Broodmare Sale next week and she will go through the ring catalogued as Lot 606. https://ecat.magicmillions.com.au/viewLot/219/606
