Fearless Fury returns

…faces tough rivals in Flossie McNeil feature

The presence of Yoga, Raising The Bar and Love Train are just a few who have done enough in their short racing careers to receive favourable attention going into the Flossie McNeil Memorial Cup highlighter at Caymanas Park today.

However, the presence of the undefeated fresh-foot filly, Fearless Fury, a winner in her only race to date (December 20 2014) could prove a handful for these and keep her winning momentum ticking without raising much of a gallop in the Restricted Allowance II call for native bred three-year-olds and upward, fillies and mares, going 1,200 metres for a purse of $768,000.

The second to last race on the card, the Flossie McNeil is scheduled to go to post at approximately 4:25 pm with first post at 12:10 pm.

Fearless Fury, a nicely bred chestnut by Fearless Vision out of Raging Fury (Al’s River Cat) owned and trained by Fitzroy Glispie showed up as a respected candidate for the three-year-old Classics following her impressive performance in the Sunny Side Stakes as a two-year-old, but alas, missed her date with destiny through injury.

The promising filly is now in the process of resuming her racing career as a three-year-old and how well she has recovered from her injury in order to return to competitive racing and make a positive response to the improvement of her more experienced rivals, will be played out in her second career race against a good field of 15.

Judging by her preparation report, Fearless Fury has gone well. On the other hand, it is well known that racing in a competitive situation and decent exercise work is not synonymous to automatic success. In competitive racing, a number of precarious happenings can develop during the race that will not take place in training that could lead to a change of the best-laid plans. Trainer Glispie is apparently not taking any chances and has called to the saddle the experience lightweight jockey Wesley Henry to take charge and pilot the filly in a race that features all the leading riders who will be aboard hopeful rivals.

Dash Board, the mount of Ruja Lahoe, who was a front-running winner going 1,300 metres on debut, comes in good mention. In her next race going 1,800 metres, she put in a clinker. Then the filly’s next race over 1400 metres she was seen putting in a good late run to indicate that she was in fine trim and could have been preparing for a race such as this.

The chestnut progeny of former top sprinter Deputy’s Report has trained well coming into the race and being saddled with 53.5 kg should not prevent her from turning in a very good performance among these, as she has been well drilled by trainer Tensang Chung for a competitive effort.
