Reputabelle (NZ) (Pins) certainly knows how to find the line, this being her fourth win in a row and her second at Listed level. Bred by Waikato Stud, the full sister to the stakes-placed Florence Jean (NZ) and three-quarter sister to the G3 Victoria H. winner Stickpin (NZ) and the Listed winner The Bandito (NZ) (Pins), she is one of the 88 stakes winners for her late sire.

Getting up right on the line to record her second stakes race in a row, Irish Girl (NZ) (El Roca) is a homebred for G M Hackett and V J Roberts. She is one of the six stakes winners for her Westbury Farm-based sire and sadly the one and only foal for her two-time winning dam Aimees Babe (NZ) (Postponed {USA}) who died young. She is a granddaughter of the Listed Waikato Sprint H. winner Aimee's Idol (NZ) (Colombia {NZ}).
