  • Quality Peters Duo Starts Spring Prep

    Wednesday, 16th June 2021

    Owner Bob Peters, whose pockets were filled with lucre when selling high profile Group 1 mares Arcadia Queen (Pierro) and Celebrity Queen (Redoute’s Choice) last month, has two of his remaining powerhouse performers back in work. Beginning their slow build-ups for the spring and Perth Summer, Inspirational Girl (Reliable Man) and Superstorm (Sebring) are both realistic chances to campaign on the east coast, flights permitting, reports thewest.com.au, and have returned to the stable of trainers Grant and Alanna Williams. While last season’s Gr1 Railways Stakes heroine Inspirational Girl is the pin-up for Peters and his wife Sandra, Superstorm has shown enough to be a genuine threat in Melbourne and/or Sydney. Although unplaced in the $7.5 million Golden Eagle (1500m), Superstorm has had a bone-chip removed, and is expected to get back to his best which includes Group 1 placings in the Australian Guineas at Flemington and Toorak Handicap at Caulfield. Peters said, “They’ve both been in work for a few weeks. Inspirational Girl had a good break. She’s taken a while to mature and hopefully she takes another step.”
