The consistent mare Favonski (Gonski x Fast Fav) returned to the winner’s circle on Sunday at Penola in what was a two-horse battle with Favonski’s co-favourite Domination over 1100m on a very damp track. The most remarkable thing about this win was that it marked apprentice Raquel Clarks’ 100th South Australian win of the year. Congratulations Raquel!
Favonski has always been a very consistent mare, but for whatever she hit a bit of a lull in her preparation, but as is the old adage, once a mare hits form, they generally hold it.
Just over a year ago, Favonski finished 3rd to a horse that started favourite in the 2018 Caulfield Cup, and was specked behind Winx in a Cox Plate, so she indeed has talent, and judging by Sunday’s win, it looks as if Favonski still has a lot in the tank and will continue to be hard to beat for the remainder of her preparation.
Congratulations to this mare’s big group of owners. She has given us eight wins from 29 starts now, so her strike rate is good. And indeed well done to Raquel Clark on what is turning out to be a stellar season in what will be her last as an apprentice
