Delicacy left no doubt with Adelaide racegoers that she is a top class filly when she ran away with the Group 1 Australian Oaks at Morphettville on Saturday.

It was an outstanding performance to come from where she did on the home turn with a wall of horses in front of her.

She left her home city of Perth with an imposing record, having won eight of her 12 starts, which included the Guineas, Oaks and Derby.

A spell is now the likely scenario before any spring plans are made, which you would expect the Caulfield Cup to be high on the wish list.

Her owner, Bob Peters, is no stranger to Melbourne; he has raced several horses here previously, when trained by Lee Freedman.

Falvelon came under the radar on Saturday when his son, Mr Favulous ,won the Weetwood Handicap at Toowoomba.

A lot of water has gone under the bridge since Falvelon last carried silk, he was resilient winning Stakes races in each of the five seasons he raced.

He became a frequent visitor to Hong Kong, visiting the colony three times, winning on each occasion, amassing HK$8,900,000 in stakes.

His Australian wins included the Oakleigh Plate, Doomben Ten Thousand twice; he collected prize money 28 times from his 37 starts.

He has become an important cog within the Queensland breeding industry, and an all time favourite.

Pharaoh overcame a determined rival in Firing Line to win the 141^st Kentucky Derby, before a crowd of 170,513, at Churchill Downs on Saturday.

Whilst he raced wide most of the one mile and a quarter classic, he drew away and was holding sway when the post was reached.

The event developed into a three horse race, nothing else in the field was given a ghost of a chance, with Pharaoh, Firing Line and Dortmund, in the leading role and filling the placings.

It was fourth success for trainer Bob Baffert in the Derby; he had won previously with Silver Charm, Real Quiet and War Emblem.

Highlight of the Inglis four days sales centred on the weanlings, yesterday in particular, those by All Too Hard and Pierro, both outstanding young horses.

They only met twice as three year olds with All Too Hard having the wood on his rival.

The position was reversed yesterday with three lots sold by Pierro, averaging $143,000, while 4 lots were sold by All Too Hard averaging $72,500, a filly by Animal Kingdom sold for $200.000.

Savabeel has got the New Zealand sires premiership safely in his keeping, with progeny earnings of $2,339.715, ahead of his nearest rival Darci Brahma, who is two wins ahead, however, his total is $1.552 .095.

Caulfield Guineas winner, Pins, has done a great job, he is holding down third place, but by only a narrow margin from Iffraaj, only $22,000 separates the pair.
