FIRST START...A winner for Pink Ribbon Stable !
Saturday. October 22, 2006 ..."Making her first start for her new connections, Pink Ribbon Stable, Tracy Bell, Sasha Keeling, Brenda Kinsella, Lindsay McLeod and Mary Martin's three-year-old filly, Badgetts Star (Bold Badgett), made short work of a $25,000 open claiming event ran as the last race Saturday at Vancouver's Hastings Racecourse.
Sporting colourful new silks proudly donated by Anne Gregory of Heritage Racing Designs, the Toni Jacobson-trained filly looked the part as she confidently strode in to the paddock for her first start north of the border. At Badgetts Star's side was groom and cancer survivor Cecilia Maass, another proud female member of the Pink Ribbon Team.
Breaking alertly, the Cal-bred bay miss made the lead from the outside on the first turn, extended her advantage down the backstretch and was ridden out to a comfortable 1/2 length victory by Patricia Trimble. The promising young filly completed the 6 1/2 furlongs over a track rated good in 1:19.09 and paid a popular $5.50 to her many supporters.
Pink Ribbon Stable is an exciting new partnership comprised of women dedicated to the ongoing fight against breast cancer"... racingthoroughbreds.com
