Mehzebeen completed a major staying double at Riccarton in outstanding style with a commanding victory in the G3 New Zealand Cup.
The five-year-old’s southern exploits also further emphasized what a source of high-quality distance performers our resident sire Almanzor continues to produce.
The Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson-trained Mehzebeen had been a dominant frontrunning winner on the first day of the Listed Metropolitan Trophy and she backed up waltz home in the Cup.
“It was a great ride by Craig (Grylls) to get one out and one back, she went to sleep and was strong through the line,” Bergerson said.
This is a massive thrill, it’s one of the iconic races in New Zealand racing, so it means a lot to have our names on the trophy.
“Thanks to all of our team, both at Matamata and down here. The start of her prep didn’t quite go to plan, but she’s just improved and improved.
“That win last week gave us the confidence to press on. She’s absolutely thrived and bounced through the run on the first day and then she came out and was really strong through the line.
“There are plenty of nice Cup races coming up, both here and in Australia.”
Mehzebeen lobbed along in fourth spot away from the fence before making her run wide out near the turn under jockey Craig Grylls.
The mare strode to the front and was far too strong in the run to the line to have three lengths on her nearest rival at the post.
“The plan was to get a bit of cover, and we managed to do that quite quickly,” Grylls said.
“She just travelled so well throughout. Coming up to the turn I thought that all she would have to do to get them all off the bridle would be to just quicken up a little bit, and she did that. She won easily in the end.”
The Pencarrow Stud-bred Mehzebeen has now five races and also finished runner-up in the G1 New Zealand Oaks during her classic season.

The progeny of our resident sire Almanzor were keenly sought-after during New Zealand Bloodstock’s Ready to Run Sale at Karaka.
An array of leading New Zealand, Australian and Asian buyers successfully chased down his two-year-olds with his highest-priced offering to cross the Tasman after he was knocked down for $325,000.
Trainers Annabel Neasham and Rob Archibald and Blandford Bloodstock signed the ticket for Lot 76, who was offered by KB Bloodstock.
The colt is a son of the G3 Lowland Stakes winner and G1 New Zealand Oaks runner-up Miss Selby, dam of the juvenile winner and G2 Matamata Breeders’ Stakes runner-up Lowe Flying.
The pedigree also features the former top mare Viadana, successful at Group 1 level in the Easter Handicap and New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes.
Te Akau chief David Ellis was taken by a well-credentialled Almanzor filly and he went to $150,000 for Lot 170.
Offered by Woburn Farm, she is a sister to the multiple winner Mary Shan, who finished runner-up at Group 2 level in both the Eight Carat Classic and Soliloquy Stakes.
They are out of the High Chaparral mare Shanzam and the family of the G3 Kingston Town Stakes winner She’s Ideel who was also a multiple Group 1 placegetter.
Lot 363 from Kilgravin Lodge’s consignment also changed hands for $150,000 with Hong Kong’s Cody Mo the successful bidder.
The colt is a half-brother to Scott Base, dual Group 2 winner of the Wellington Guineas and Japan-New Zealand International Trophy and the Karaka Million 3YO Classic.
Cambridge trainers Roger James and Robert Wellwood were the successful purchasers at $140,000 of Lot 160, a gelded juvenile by Almanzor presented by Chad Ormsby’s Riverrock Farm.
His dam is the Savabeel mare Savette, who was successful on two occasions and hails from the family of the dual Group 1-winninghalf-siblings Glamour Puss and Vision And Power.
Their half-sister Rare Insight won the G2 Stan Fox Stakes and produced Steps In Time, who triumphed in an edition of the G1 Coolmore Classic.

Improving mare Dujour ran her rivals ragged on her home track at Riccarton to open her winning account with a dominant performance that has earned her a break.
The Almanzor four-year-old was making just her fifth appearance and was coming off a previous third placing before she romped home over 1600 metres.
“I’m very proud of her, I knew she was fit and well and she definitely goes for a break now,” said trainer David Medcalfe, who races the mare with sister Jenny.
Dujour was quickly into her work from barrier rise to make the running under Donovan Cooper and after surging clear at the top of the straight she stayed on too strongly for her rivals.
“What a beautiful way to start Cup Week, she loved it out in front and I let her do it at her own tempo and she found the line really well,” Cooper said.
We bred Dujour who is out of the unraced Irish-bred High Chaparral mare High Vogue, a 110,000gns purchase at a Tattersalls October Sale.
She is a half-sister to the four-time Group 1 winner Luxembourg with top-flight winners Arcangues, Artiste Royale and Aquarelliste also members of this family.
High Vogue is due to foal to Sword Of State after produced acolt to the Group 1 winner last season, while her son of Ocean Park was purchased by John Foote for A$80,000 at the Inglis Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale earlier this year.
