2024 Arrowfield 3YO Sprint result



1stJoliestar (+400)
2ndHedged (+255)
3rdLibertad (+560)

Recent runnings of the Arrowfield 3YO Sprint:

  • Joliestar made a stylish return in the Group 2 Arrowfield 3YO Sprint (1200m) at Randwick, scoring first-up off a 147-day spell. The Chris Waller-trained filly, a Group 1 Thousand Guineas winner in the spring, settled worse than midfield under Jamie Kah before launching late to secure her third career victory. The race was run at a strong tempo by The Novelist and The Instructor, setting it up for the closers. Hedged and Libertad made ground down the centre, but Joliestar proved too strong, justifying her solid market support at $5.
  • Aft Cabin bounced back to form with a powerful win in the Group 3 Arrowfield 3YO Sprint (1200m) at Randwick. After missing the start and settling near last, the Godolphin colt unleashed a strong finishing burst under James McDonald to surge past Wee Nessy and Lady Laguna. The drop back in trip proved a winning move by trainer James Cummings, with Aft Cabin thriving off a strong tempo set by Kote. It was his first win since early in the season and a return to the level many expected.
  • Mazu extended his winning streak to five with a tough victory in the $1 million Group 2 Arrowfield 3YO Sprint (1200m) at Randwick. The Peter & Paul Snowden-trained gelding fought off In The Congo in a thrilling duel down the straight, with Paulele third and I Am Lethal finishing last in the small field of four. Ridden by Sam Clipperton, Mazu sat outside the lead before taking over in the straight and proving too strong late. The win capped a Group 2 double for the stable, following Paris Dior’s earlier win in the Percy Sykes. Since being gelded, Mazu remains unbeaten and has now earned close to $1 million in prizemoney.
