Cambridge Stud's young Redoute's Choice stallion Lucky Unicorn gained his first winner when Bacio Francese was successful at Greymouth yesterday.
The two-year-old filly beat older horses in a special conditions maiden event over 1100m.
Bacio Francese (ex Smooch, by Rory's Jester) was the fourth raceday runner for Lucky Unicorn. Another of his intial runners, Oscar Wilde, has been placed.
Bred by Cambridge Stud, Bacio Francese was a $4,000 bargain buy for John and Karen Parsons at last year's May Mixed Bloodstock Sale at Karaka.
