Mare serves further notice of ability

29 April 2013

A WS-bred mare with strong Australian ties furthered her record in Melbourne on Thursday with the third career win for Notice Received. The four-year-old, who has also placed a further three times from her 11 appearances, was successful in Rating 82 company at Flemington.

Trained at Caulfield by part-owner Andrew Noblet, Notice Received has come back from her summer break in fine fettle and two runner-up finishes preceded her victory in the hands of Craig Williams. She is out of the Royal Academy mare Classique Royale who was a dual winner herself.

She is also a half-sister to the Gr 3 Swettenham Stud Stakes winner Apple Danish, who also won four times at Listed level and was a multiple Gr 2 placegetter. Notice Received was purhased by Nobley for $Z135,000 from WS’s 2010 Sydney Easter Sale draft.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

Mary and I had a great weekend. As usual, Taupo Race Club put on a couple of days that encourage you to go to the races. The lead-in to the day was an hour or so at the iconic Yacht Club Bar – an easy place to be, perched above the lake: wine, beer and pizzas provided. A chance to meet and greet, bearing in mind the visitors that make the effort to attend.
