27th July 2008

Irish bred filly Front House (3f Sadler’s Wells x Adjalisa, by Darshaan) scored her first Black Type success when taking out the Group Two Gold Circle Oaks over 2400 metres at Clairwood in South Africa on Saturday.

Trained by Mike de Kock for Mrs John Magnier and Wilgerbosdrift (Pty) Ltd, Front House was sent out a hot favourite and raced clear to score by a length in taking her overall record to four wins and two placings from six starts.

Front House is a half-sister to stakes-winner Access All Areas being from the Darshaan mare Adjalisa, a half-sister to stakes-winner Adjarelli.
