Baby breaks through

A filly who is bred for a bit more ground, When My Bay looked good breaking her maiden over a sprinting trip at Mornington on Monday.

Having her first run since the spring and only her sixth start overall, the cleverly named daughter of Captain Rio (also sire of Ballymore's Oaks heroine Brazilian Pulse) settled back in the field for Ben Melham and really finished on well.

"She got to the line nicely," Melham reported, adding that "she gave me every indication that the further she goes the better she will be."

Raced by John O'Neill, Rupert & Cheryl Legh Racing, Adam Kirkwood-Scott, Carty Racing (manager Brett Carty), Matthew Dominello, Richard Starkins, Gary Ablett, Campbell Brown and the ARK Syndicate, When My Baby is a half sister to seven winners out of the Waikato winning Tights mare Jolly Tight.

Bred on a 4 X 3 cross of Nijinsky II, When My Baby can count amongst her siblings the metro winners Jolly talented and Zambria as well as the handy chaser Infusion.

Jolly Tight is a half sister to dual Gr.1 winner Jolly Old Mac (Australian Guineas, Goodwood Handicap) from the family of the stakes winners Zim Zam, Madhuri Dixit, Beau Cera, Avvocato, Rocky Murano, Hero's Honour and Perlisitic.
