+KILMAH (GB) (f, 2, Sepoy {Aus}–Perfect Star {GB}, by Act One {GB}), a 32,000gns TAOCT yearling, was always in the firing line in this unveiling. Pushed along with a quarter mile remaining, the 14-1 chance took a slender advantage entering the final furlong and edged further clear up the hill to score by two lengths from Seafront (GB) (Foxwedge {Aus}). Kilmah, half to a yearling colt by Helmet (Aus), becomes the first northern hemisphere winner for her sire (by Elusive Quality). She is out of the Listed Rosemary S. winner Perfect Star (GB) (Act One {GB}) and her second dam, Granted (Fr) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}), is a multiple stakes-placed half-sister to GI Hollywood Derby third Lucky Chappy (Ire) (High Chaparral {Ire}). Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, £4,582. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
