New Environment Agrees With Ioane
A change of scenery has had the desired effect on the well-relatedSavabeel three-year-old Ioane.

Ioane made his debut on his home synthetic track over 1400 metres and romped to an effortless victory.
He was back in the early running before improving wide on the turn for apprentice Cody Collis and let down strongly in the run home to put his rivals away by a length and a-half.
Ioane was offered at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale by Sledmere Stud on behalf of breeder Waikato Stud and sold to the TFI Ladies syndicate for A$240,000.

Got It has an unraced two-year-old colt by Ocean Park and produced a son of Noverre last season and is back in foal to Ocean Park.
