Black Caviar's daughter Oscietra
Black Caviar's daughter Oscietra has made an impressive first public appearance, leading all the way to win a jumpout at Flemington today
The two-year-old filly by Exceed And Excel is the first foal from the champion mare Black Caviar Ridden by Black Caviar's regular jockey Luke Nolen in today's 800m hit-out, Oscietra began quickly to lead the five-horse heat and was never headed in a performance that pleased co-trainer David Hayes Courtesy aap |

Won that jumpout |
LITTLE Caviar Oscietra has been unable to emulate her famous mum Black Caviar by failing to win first-up down the Flemington straight.
But trainer David Hayes has predicted Oscietra will find winning ways ahead despite finishing third on debut. |
David Hayes hinted in an interview after her trials, that she has some ability, but not sure she's anywhere near BC's grade, yet punters sent her out a short priced favourite.
After the race, Mr Hayes didn't look that disappointed, just said maybe she went too hard early and would talk to the jockey. Based on her trials, one would probably send her out favourite, but the chances of her winning Black type races is small. As any breeder would know, champions inherit certain genes from their parents and grandparents. The genes combine and become dominant under certain circumstances. The point is, she'll throw some handy foals, but the chances of any one of them being a champion, are probably 100/1. Even full brothers and sisters to champions rarely are as good for the same reason. Case in point Octagonal sired so many horses, yet Lonhro was the only one to come close, still not as good. |

The early form around the winner of the race, Limestone, has been excellent |
Wise move for the trainer to spell Oscietra imo
