Black-Type Ahead for Speedy Fast ‘N’ Famous Filly

4 August 2011

It’s black-type racing ahead for the Kevin Gray-trained Fast’N’Famous 3YO, Scarlet O’Hara (pictured left).

Scarlet O’Hara, who was successful at two, is set to receive her classic term’s pipe-opener in the Listed Fordell O’Leary Fillies’ Stakes (1200m) at Wanganui on September 3.

“She’s really exciting this filly,” said Gray. “She’s done very well during her break and I really like her. She’s a speed machine.”

Evidently, Scarlet O’Hara is not the only Fast’N’Famous galloper impressing the master conditioner.

“I’ve got another one named Super Bod who’s coming along very nicely,” he said. “Like Scarlett O’Hara, she’s got good gate speed and her work has been very pleasing.”
