Tacticall ended a grand first day of the Grand National carnival for the Can West Syndicates with victory in the closing event. They race the daughter of Scaredee Cat and also celebrated a victory earlier in the day with Cangowest, another daughter of the former WS resident.

Both mares are prepared by Lisa Latta with Tacticall now a three-time winner following her latest Rating 75 sprint success.

Their dam Aggressive is also the mother of the stakes winner On Call, who in turn left Savabeel’s Gr 1 Queensland Oaks and Gr 1 NZ Stakes winner Scarlett Lady.
