Super Seth’s Frosty Girl makes impression on debut
Patience paid off at Warwick Farm on Wednesday when the Chris Waller-trained Frosty Girl (ex Oh So Chilled) produced an eye-catching debut to land the 1300m maiden.
The three-year-old daughter of Super Seth was taken to the rear of the field by James McDonald before unleashing a sweeping run down the outside to score by just over a length and a half. She is raced by prominent Kiwi owner Glenn Ritchie, Frosty Girl had been given time to mature, trialling on six occasions before her raceday debut.
“It was a good win,” Waller said. “She is still learning as you can see. We intended to be a little bit closer to the pace, but she was a bit slow away.”
“James didn’t panic. He got her into a good rhythm and got her out to the right part of the track and finished off without any interruptions, so it was good.”
“Like most New Zealand-bred horses, if you look after them, they will look after you.”
“Super Seth from Waikato Stud is doing a fantastic job, so it’s good to see New Zealand with another really promising stallion on the way. We will have to pay a bit more for them, but we will be buying a lot more of them.”
Bred by Waikato Stud in partnership with Gary Wallace, Frosty Girl is out of the O’Reilly mare Oh So Chilled, a half-sister to Listed winner Savacool. She was purchased by Chris Waller Racing and Mulcaster Bloodstock for $150,000 from Waikato Stud’s 2023 New Zealand Bloodstock Karaka Book 1 draft.
With his oldest progeny now three-year-olds, Super Seth has sired three Group 1 winners and six individual stakes winners to date.
Frosty Girl becomes his 41st individual winner and adds to the growing list of exciting performers by the young Waikato Stud stallion.
Wee Nessy breaks her maiden in style
Savabeel’s three-year-old filly Wee Nessy impressed at Ellerslie, charging home to break her maiden in dominant fashion. The win marked Savabeel’s 1057th individual winner, with his progeny earnings surpassing $208 million as his legacy continues to grow.
