Princess Posh came from just off the pace to beat the favourite Savatiano (Street Cry) by a length with Irithea (Snitzel) three and a half lengths back in third.
Trainer Kris Lees said a stakes win was a worthy reward for the tough daughter of Canford Cliffs (IRE) and that it was great to get a black-type win for Australia Bloodstock.
With her first stakes win, Princess Posh took her record to 7 wins, 2 seconds and 5 thirds from 21 starts with earnings of AUD$391,020.
She was an AUD$25,000 purchase out of the Phoenix Broodmare Farm draft at the 2015 Inglis Premier Yearling Sale.
A half-sister to two winners, Princess Posh is out of the winning Viscount mare The Baroness who is a half-sister to Gr3 Millie Fox Stakes winner A Country Girl out of the dual Listed stakes-winner Verdict Declared.
The exciting Canford Cliffs (IRE), who shuttled from 2012-16, has created plenty of excitement in the SA breeding industry and now stands his first season at Highlands Part Of Ridgemont in the Western Cape for a fee of R30 000.
