Melbourne, December 18 – Leading second season sire Fastnet Rock posted another new winner when the Lee Freedman trained filly Fast Talker broke her maiden at Moonee Valley on Friday Night.
Despite drawing the outside barrier in a field of 12, Fast Talker prevailed to win the 1000 metre dash by a long head ending a run of frustrating minor placings for the well bred filly.
A $320,000 purchase for BBA Ireland from the Yarraman Park draft at the 2008 Magic Millions Yearling Sale, Fast Talker was stakes-placed in Adelaide twice last preparation so was well overdue to break through.
Fast Talker is the first foal of stakes-winning Distorted Humor (USA) mare Crystal Wit, a half-sister to the dam of this season’s top class three year-old Carrara.
A full sister to Fast Talker is among the Yarraman Park entries for the 2010 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale.
