Kirk Swanson’s star, In The Mood, with Norbert Takawira in the irons, showed her class at Borrowdale Park this afternoon when winning the 1260m Sable Flyers (LR) for the second time.

The five-year-old daughter of Bold Silvano has now won 9 races and placed 10 times in 21 starts. Perhaps racing up the straight isn’t her best game now but you wouldn’t have thought so once she drew level with stable companion Dunas Douradas and then went clear. Western Shamrock was third.

Owned by John Koumides, In The Mood was bred by Summerhill Stud. Congratulations to all the winning connections.

Well done Norbert.
