Angel Finds Her Wings

A step up to 1600m for the first time brought out the best in Hello Angel, who justified her trainer’s pre-race confidence with an impressive maiden victory at Te Rapa.

Ridden by Kelly Myers, the Hello Youmzain three-year-old filly looked the winner throughout the straight and ultimately proved too strong for her rivals.

Bred by JML Bloodstock, Hello Angel is out of the Group 3-placed Cape Blanco mare O’Angel and is closely related to Australian stakes performer Mr Miller.

The victory continues the rich vein of form enjoyed by Hello Youmzain’s second crop, which has now produced 13 winners from 30 starters, including 10 stakes performers.
