Exciting young Arsonist lights up track again

02 Mar, 2010 04:00 AM
BRILLIANT youngster Arsonist stamped her potential with an all-the-way win in the group 2 DDC Launching Pad at Sandown Park last Thursday night.

Sent to the boxes as $1.90 favourite after her brilliant win in last week's heat, Arsonist again took full advantage of box 1 to lead through the first turn.

Recent group 1 Silver Chief winner Enry Walt recovered from a moderate start to follow Arsonist through the turn and the pair soon cleared away from the pack.

The imposing Enry Walt reduced the margin to a length coming off the back as the two turned for home. Arsonist stuck to the rail as Enry Walt drifted wide and the former South Australian raced to the line to take the $25,000 first prize in a slick 29.88 seconds.

The win maintained Arsonist's unbeaten start to her racing career, having saluted in all four of her races and amassed more than $32,000 in prizemoney.

"I'd like to give a special thanks to [trainer] Heather Collins and her family for all the work they've done with this little girl of mine since I brought her over [to Victoria] a couple of months ago," said ecstatic owner Nathan Rooney. "I couldn't have imagined standing here after four wins from four starts, but she's going exceptionally."
