Alinghi - brilliant win
What an outstanding first up win at Caulfield last Saturday. The champion Lee Freedman trained filly was slow to begin, was well back last on the home turn badly held up, had to shift out wide to get a run and then stormed home over the top of the 12 other fillies. Alinghi looks set for a huge Spring Carnival.
