Making just her third career start, Night Of Thunder’s three-year-old daughter Kon Tiki remained unbeaten to win the Listed Fillies’ Stakes over a mile at York on Friday, 16 May.
Settled towards the rear, Kon Tiki was produced for a run on the stands’ side rail and quickly quickened into the lead, going on to win by half a length at the line.
She remains unbeaten! 😤
