At Arawa Park in New Zealand, Windsor Park Stud's triple Gr1-winning shuttler Rip Van Winkle (Galileo-Looking Back, by Stravinsky) added a Group success when smart 4YO bay mare Let Her Rip (Rip Van Winkle-Keeper Special, by Keeper) finally secured some valuable black-type when winning the $70,000 Gr3 Rotorua Stakes (1400m) for fillies & mares, defeating New York Minute & Underthemoonlight. Let Her Rip, who was purchased by her trainer Shaune Ritchie for $41,000 at the 2014 NZB Select Yearling Sale, improved her record to 5 wins and 3 placings from 17 starts for NZ$118,107 earnings.
