Embellish on board at Kranji

Embellish has sired his first winner in Singapore following a dominant front-running performance from Lim’s Everest.Our young Group 1-winning son of Savabeel has now produced 21 individual winners from 48 representatives with his flagship performer the Patrick Payne-trained Bold Soul, who has three stakes victories to his credit.

Lim’s Everest jumped well at Kranji and worked his way to the head of affairs under rider Mark Lerner before dashing clear in the run home to score with authority at the end of 1600 metres.

Bred by Alistair Scown and daughter Sonia Waddell, Lim’s Everest was purchased out of Kit Brooks’ KB Bloodstock draft at New Zealand Bloodstock’s Ready to Run Sale for $150,000 by trainer Dan Meagher and Lim’s Stable.

He is the second winner for the Road To Rock mare Meritaggio, who was successful on five occasions up to 1600 metres.She is a half-sister to stakes performer Adolay and they are granddaughters of the G1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas winner and G1 New Zealand Derby runner-up Clear Rose.
