So Seductive Wins Six Straight Taking Out Staying Final
So Seductive stamped herself as the dominant stayer of her generation with a brilliant win in the Group 1 Bold Trease Carnival Cup at Sandown Park tonight.
Sent to the boxes a $1.90 favourite, So Seductive jumped only fairly before railing through to lead through the first turn and from there was never in danger, winning her sixth race from as many starts over the Sandown Park 715m trip and secure the $50,000 first prize.
Trained by Pearcedale trainer Kel Greenough, So Seductive finished ahead of the evergreen Jarvis Bale ($31.20), who finished 1.5 lengths adrift in his 26th Group race final, with Slick Lee ($46.20) a further 1.25 lengths away third.
Run at Group 1 level for the first time in 2010, the Bold Trease Carnival Cup brought together the best stayers in the country, the eight finalists combining for 156 race wins and over $1m in prizemoney.
It was So Seductive's 17th career win – and second at Group level – and took her career prizemoney to $139,300.
