Brevity, a lightly-raced daughter of Street Cry, ran on strongly to record her first Stakes win in the UK when landing the EBF-sponsored Dick Poole Fillies’ Stakes over six furlongs (1200m).
Making just her third racecourse appearance, the filly was recording her second victory, having landed a maiden in impressive style at Britain’s newest racecourse, Ffos Las, on August 10. She becomes the 41st Stakes winner worldwide for her sire.
Bred by the Freedman family’s Cliveden Stud Ltd, Brevity races in the colours of Mrs Lucinda Freedman and is trained by Brian Meehan, who also handles Bernardini’s ante-post 1,000 Guineas favourite Theyskens’ Theory, who won the G3 Prestige Stakes at Goodwood on Saturday.
Brevity was foaled in the US, as was her winning Elusive Quality half-sister, Special Quality. Her dam Cut Short is a full-sister to the dual G2-winning juvenile and sire Daggers Drawn.
Finishing third in the race was Exceed And Excel’s plucky daughter Margot Did, who won her first two starts before finishing runner-up on three occasions at Group level, including the G2 Lowther Stakes at York’s Ebor Meeting in August.
