Debut Victory for Equinox's Full-Sister
A full-sister to the great Equinox has begun her career with an impressive win in the 2000-metre 2YO Newcomer event on turf at Tokyo.
Trained by Tetsuya Kimura, who also trained Equinox, the filly named Exceed was favored to win at $1.70. With Christophe Lemaire riding, Exceed quickened in the home straight to win by a length and a half in 2:00.2.
She's well-built for a filly and shows sharp acceleration. Her gestures and sensitivity remind me of her brother when he was young, she's alert and quick to respond. She's a very exciting prospect with great potential.
According to stable representative Kimiya, Exceed has great potential and is an exciting prospect.
