Rags-to-riches pacer Jadah Rose (pictured) must overcome the extreme front line draw to land back-to-back Vicbred Super Series titles this Friday night at Moonee Valley.
The Mark Thompson-trained filly will need to call upon all her courageous qualities to prove triumphant from barrier seven in the $100,000 three-year-old final.
The $3600 purchase capped her meteoric rise to stardom with victory over New South Wales stars Protikori and Lady Waratah in last year’s two-year-old final.
She will renew acquaintances with that pair in Friday night’s Group 1 feature, fresh from taking her earnings past $200,000 with a stylish victory in last weekend’s semis.
As was the case 12 months ago, the NSW raiders will again face second line draws with runner-up Protikori in barrier nine and Lady Waratah drawn on her inside in eight.
Despite lowering their colours in the semi finals, the duo – who filled the quinella in last year’s Breeders Crown final – are all class and cannot be underestimated.
The new kid on the block is the Larry Eastman-trained filly Dilinger Girl who impressed defeating Protikori in the quicker of the two semis and draws inside her main rivals.
