Again, she has displayed amazing acceleration to win the G1 Mile Championship today. Gran Alegria had difficulty securing a run in the home straight but once she got out, she put them away in a few strides.

The BEST sprinter/miler is going to make her seasonal debut in the Group 1 2000m Osaka Hai. Noice.

One of the great joys of thoroughbred racing these days is watching Gran Alegria in full cry. She just won the G1 Victoria Mile by panels.

Yep, great acceleration, even if Sea-Bird never won at a mile.  

Sea-Bird, at the risk of segueing, was ridden by Australian jockey Pat Glennon who among a host of Stakes wins won the Derby, Prix de L'Arc and Melbourne Cup in a stellar career.

I know different countries, tracks, conditions etc etc but she's gone a conservative 66 lengths better than the Palace Pier race.

So 2-3 ratings less on timeform..? LOL

Gran Alegria scores another Grade 1 victory in her final start, the Mile Championship, storming home down the outside. So good to see!

Great mare.  They were entitled to have a crack at the 2000m in Group 1 races but she was clearly a miler.
