MILDENBERGER (GB) (c, 2, Teofilo {Ire}–Belle Josephine {GB}, by Dubawi {Ire}), a July 7 debut winner over this trip at Haydock last time, led from the outset of this return. Holding sway until stoked up when pressed with 2 1/2 furlongs remaining, the 4-1 chance was driven clear approaching the final eighth and kept on well to account for Ode to Autumn (GB) (Showcasing {GB}) by five lengths. The bay is out of a winning half-sister to Listed Height of Fashion S. and Listed Grand Prix de Fontainebleau victress Marsh Daisy (GB) (Pivotal {GB}), MGSP Yankee Doodle (GB) (Dalakhani {Ire}) and Listed Carnarvon S. runner-up Fontana Amorosa (GB) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}). His third dam is G2 Prix de l'Opera heroine and G1 1000 Guineas third Bella Colora (GB) (Bellypha {Ire}), whose leading performer is European highweight and MGSW sire Stagecraft (GB) (Sadler's Wells). Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, $14,265. Video, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
