Irish-bred five-year-old Miss Singhsix has been a model of consistency this year and scored her biggest win to date on Saturday when winning the G3 Obeah Stakes at Delaware Park.
Bred by John O’Connor from Whatamiss, by Miswaki, the Singspiel mare won the Maryland Racing Media Stakes on 20 February before finishing placed in both the G3 Rampart Stakes and G3 Sixty Sails Handicap.
With a career record standing at 19 runs for five wins and six places, and earnings in excess of $317,000, Miss Singhsix started her racing days trained by Andrew Oliver in Ireland, for whom she won on her second start. She transferred to America in 2008 and is now under the guidance of trainer Marty Wolfson.
Singspiel has spent his entire northern hemisphere stud career at Dalham Hall Stud in Newmarket but his runners have been successful the world over, with other notable victories in the US coming via Breeders' Cup winner Lahudood and G1 Del Mar Oaks winner Singhalese, who led home her paternal half-sister Three Degrees, herself a Grade Two winner. There have also been Grade Two victories for Singspiel's Dark Islander, winner of the Del Mar Derby, and the Cheveley Park Stud-bred Funfair, who landed the Kelso Breeders' Cup Handicap.
