Trainer Charlotte Littlefield is confident that She’s Bulletproof will ‘go to a different level’ in the Group 3 Geoffrey Bellmaine Stakes (1200m) at Sandown on Saturday.

The Shooting To Win mare has only finished outside of the placings once in her ten-start career, with her most recent effort being a second-place finish in the Listed Black Pearl Stakes (1200m) at Geelong on January 4.

Since then, She’s Bulletproof impressed in a Pakenham jump-out on January 21, winning with authority.

“Sage Duric rode her and she won by a long margin,” Littlefield told Racing.com.

“The way she accelerated, it was like she developed another string to her bow and really let down a different way that I’ve not seen before.

“She’ll go to a different level on Saturday. I’m going there a lot more prepared. I think last start, she may have just gotten away from me a fraction, (I) had her a little bit heavy.

“We’ve done a few things differently, we’ve managed to rip a few kilos off and I think she’ll be going into this race a lot better physically so I think she’ll really show a different finish on Saturday.”

She’s Bulletproof will be ridden by Mark Zahra for the first time in Saturday’s Group 3 contest.
