**Ya Rite Darl (NZ) adds Group Win to Growing CV —————————————————-
In just three starts, Ya Rite Darl(NZ) (What The Hill) has certified herself a bargain weanling purchase and a Group race winner.
The $8000 selection at the 2022 National Weanling Sale at Karaka powered to an impressive win in the $46,000 SENZ New Zealand Two-Year-Old Trotting Stakes (1980m) at Addington on Friday night.
The classy youngster was purchased and is raced by Diamond Racing after she was offered by breeder-vendors Woodlands Stud.
Driver John Dunn took Ya Rite Darl to the lead in the middle stages on Friday night’s feature and from there, victory never looked in doubt.
“Once I got the lead trouble-free, it was a good feeling,” Dunn said.
“She trotted the whole way which was great and managed to hold them all off, manners were to the fore.”
After making it two wins and a third placing from her three starts, Ya Rite Darl will now be put aside and aimed at New Zealand’s spring features for two-year-old trotters.
“We will turn her out now and get her ready for September onwards when the season picks up again,” Dunn said.
