Moonee Valley was the venue for two of the most impressive victories for the month, both by fillies returning from spells.
SAYUMI
Four-year-old Sebring mare Sayumi displayed a scorching turn of foot to win by half a length on the 4th of December over 1200m ridden by Ben Melham. Settling back on the rails, Sayumi’s brilliant closing speed was too strong for her rivals.
