Faddwa wins under Hayley at Wolverhampton
9 July 2015
Another day, another winner. Just 24 hours after Hayley Turner had steered Talawat to victory at Wolverhampton, she repeated the trick aboard debutant Faddwa in the 1m 1/2f maiden on Wednesday.
The daughter of Arcano overcame greenness to score under hands and heels by half-a-length from Diamond Ridge. The pair pulled four lengths clear of the third.
“She´s a lovely filly,” Hayley Turner told the Racing Post. “I gave Faddwa a flick and she ran a bit green, so I put my whip back down and she straightened up and did it really nicely.”
Trained by Roger Varian, Faddwa was bought for €30,000 by Tony Nerses at the 2013 Goffs Orby Sale. She was bred by Stephanie Hanley out of the Royal Applause mare Heart’s Desire and is a half-sister to Listed winner Heart Of Fire and the Listed-placed Unsinkable.
