Cracksman sired a new Stakes winner when his four-year-old daughter Shaha took the Listed Daisy Warwick Fillies’ Stakes in impressive fashion over a mile and a half at Goodwood on Friday, 2 May.
Trained by John & Thady Gosden and making just her fourth start, Shaha showed a great attitude and an impressive turn of foot when asked for an effort on the outside of the field with two furlongs to run, going on to win by a length and a quarter.
Impressive 💨
