Recent New Zealand 1000 Guineas winners
- There has always been a hint of something special about Molly Bloom, and that obvious potential turned into breathtaking Group 1 brilliance in the New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m) at Riccarton. Matamata trainers Lance O’Sullivan and Andrew Scott had been working backwards from the $500,000 fillies’ classic with Molly Bloom ever since her eye-catching third placing in her only two-year-old appearance in April. The spring campaign has been far from smooth sailing, with the highs of an outstanding maiden win at Taupo in September quickly replaced by the lows of luckless runs for fifth at Hastings and fourth in the Group 2 Soliloquy Stakes (1400m) at Pukekohe. But it was all about having Molly Bloom at the peak of her powers in the 1000 Guineas, and on Saturday she delivered in spectacular style. Rider Joe Doyle’s hopes of taking up a midfield position were extinguished within the first 200m of the race. Molly Bloom jumped only fairly from gate 11, then had a torrid time with multiple bumps and checks along Riccarton’s back straight. She dropped right out the back, eventually settling in third-last among a capacity field of 18. Molly Bloom still had only two behind her rounding the home turn, but Doyle brought her to the outside and turned on the turbochargers. With an exceptional turn of foot, Molly Bloom roared home out wide on the track.
- There was drama aplenty around Legarto’s triumph in the 2022 Group 1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas (1600m) at Riccarton – all of it before the field jumped. A hot $1.35 favourite for the three-year-old fillies’ Classic at Riccarton, Legarto proved difficult to load into the starting gates, and she gave her connections and backers an almighty scare when her bridle broke. The other runners were backed out of the gates as Legarto’s bridle was replaced, but she was still reluctant to take her place when the runners were loaded a second time and was a little fractious once she was in the gate prior to the field being sent on their way. However, everything went smoothly for both Legarto and jockey Ryan Elliot during the race itself. After settling back, she improved rounding the far turn and unleashed a devastating turn of foot 300m from the line, scoring by 4.75-lengths from Best Seller, with Blue Solitaire the best of the trio saddled by Shane Kennedy and Anna Furlong in third place.
- Trainer Jamie Richards added another milestone to his already storied training career when he provided the first four home in the New Zealand 1000 Guineas at Riccarton. Impeccably bred filly The Perfect Pink gave Richards his 50th Group One victory of his career and an elite level double at the carnival for he and jockey Opie Bosson, after the pair combined just seven days earlier to capture the Group 1 New Zealand 2000 Guineas (1600m) aboard Noverre. Bosson played a patient game aboard The Perfect Pink, sitting three wide in midfield with cover, before swooping to the outside of the track in the run home.
- The formidable combination of Jamie Richards and Opie Bosson proved to be a winner once again when the pair combined to help Kahma Lass take out the 2020 New Zealand 1000 Guineas. Having settled midfield with cover, Bosson had the Darci Brahma filly moving 400m out, and she produced a sharp turn of foot to hit the front with 100m to go and it was all over from that point. The Group 1 success came at Kahma Lass’ fourth career start and showed she is one to follow as she matures.
- Despite mixing form in the lead up to the New Zealand 1000 Guineas, Loire caused one of the biggest upsets in recent 1000 Guineas history when saluting at $30 in the feature event. The Tony Pike-trained filly settled in close to last, but with a well-timed steer from Michael mcNab she managed to finish over the top of her rivals and etch herself into 1000 Guineas history.
- Northern raider Media Sensation did the business for training due Peter and Dawn Williams in a race that unfolded beautifully for the filly despite a difficult lead in to the race. The training duo had to charter a special flight down south for their galloper, and it proved to be the right choice. Jockey Michael Coleman had Media Sensation travelling well beside pacemaker Wekaforce throughout the race before driving clear in the home straight to hold out the fast-finishing Valalie and race favourite Xpression.
- All the talk was with odds-on favourite Prom Queen, but former two-year-old star Hasahalo turned back the clock and recapture her best form. The Stephen McKee-trained filly came with a big run down the outside of runners to score an effortless win in the 1000 Guineas. Prom Queen was on the inside of runners, but it never looked likely. Dijon Bleu battled on well for second and outsider The Lustre boosted the trifecta payouts. Read report here.
- Short priced favourite La Bella Diosa justified the $2.50 price tag to take out the 1000 Guineas by over a length and a half. The filly went on to win its debut run in Australia just 15 weeks later but has yet to place in three subsequent races.
- Risque came into the 1000 Guineas in 2015 as a key market elect, and won the race easily as a $5.30 shot. Like La Bella Diosa, Risque went on to take out its Australian debut the very next start following the race but has yet to win since.
- It is not often that a long shot comes into the 1000 Guineas and takes out the race but that is exactly what Platinum Witness did in 2014. As an $11 shot the filly kicked away to win by over half a length, defying the recent trend of last start winners taking out the event.
