Exceptional New Zealand youngster On The Bubbles bounced straight back to his best form on Saturday, 5 March when he easily won the Listed Mufhasa Stakes for three-year-olds over 1,400m at Ellerslie racetrack in Auckland.
The Brazen Beau gelding, out of Australian mare More Bubbles, peeled off the leaders’ heels at the 450m mark and sprinted to the lead before holding off I Wish I Win and Bonny Lass for jockey Johnathan Parkes and leading trainer Jamie Richards.
G1-winning two-year-old On The Bubbles (#BrazenBeau) adds to impressive record winning the Listed Mufhasa Stakes @Ellerslie_Races.
