Avisto wins 2014 Allied Soliloquy Stakes Listed NZ$50,000 at Ellerslie (NZ) 3yo Fillies, 1400m.
The hot favourite Avisto showed her class. Avisto worked forward under a hold to position outside the leader, on a soft tempo. Still held together when gaining an advantage at the 200m, she required little more than a slap on the shoulder to come clear. With runners angling away from the rail entering the straight.
Choiceworked through on the inside, having trailed throughout, and went to the line solidly for second. From sixth on the outer, Vavasour ranged five wide on straightening and despite a bump at the 150m she kept galloping home strongly for third.
Fourth placed Big Dreamer made her run widest of all after travelling second last of the eight runners.
