  • Queensland Oaks Possible for Charms Star

    Tuesday, 23rd March 2021

    A Queensland campaign could be on the cards for Charms Star after her runner-up effort in the Gr1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m) at Trentham on Saturday, according to racingnews.co.nz. The Per Incanto filly finished a length in arrears of race victor Amarelinha (Savabeel) and trainer Lisa Latta was pleased with the result. “She had every chance and it was a great run,” Latta said. “We set her for the race and we were rapt to get that Group 1 black-type with her. She has come through Saturday pretty well. She is a little bit jaded, but she looks a lot brighter this morning.” Latta is contemplating targeting the Gr1 Queensland Oaks (2400m) at Eagle Farm on June 5, however she said she will make that decision once her filly returns from a few weeks in the paddock. “We will put her out for three weeks and then get her back in and make a decision from there,” she said.
