Charm Spirit
Sharon Lee Chapman
Exciting young Windsor Park shuttler Charm Spirit added a 12th winner to this tally in Europe overnight with a resounding victory at Windsor for Lively Lydia.
Trained by Eve Johnson Houghton, Lively Lydia bolted clear to win the 1200m maiden by five lengths in a field of 14.
A triple Group One-winning son of Invincible Spirit, Charm Spirit has made a positive impression at Australasian yearling sales this year with his first Southern Hemisphere bred yearlings.
His yearlings sold for up to $400,000 with his top seller. a filly from Lady Kipling, sold by Windsor Park at Karaka and bought by Ciaron Maher/Waterford Bloodstock.
