Smart Return for Cosmic Cameo
Resuming from a spell at Canterbury on Wednesday, Northern Meteor three year-old Cosmic Cameo gave notice of better things to come when scoring a dominant win.
The Gary Portelli trained colt was backed at good odds and powered away to win the 1100 metre dash by a length and three-quarters, his overall record now two wins from five starts with prizemoney topping $52,000..
A $50,000 Magic Millions purchase for Elite Thoroughbreds from the Widden Stud draft, Cosmic Cameo was bred by Gooree Stud and is a half-brother to stakes-winner Texan from the well-bred Marscay mare Jewelmer, who comes from the family of Group I winners Keltrice and Red Dazzler.
Ill-fated Northern Meteor is the leading second season sire in Australia for this season with 20 winners of $2million in prizemoney and three stakes-winners in Zoustar, Eurozone and Bound for Earth.
