Trapeze Artist Filly Goes Two for Two
A flashy chestnut filly with a bit of the Apache Cat’s about her She’s an Artist was Breednet ‘One to Watch’ when wining on debut at Bendigo last month and looked even better when bolting in at Flemington on Saturday.
Trained by Ciaron Maher, the three year-old Trapeze Artist filly was a class above with Craig Williams to ride, thrashing the short priced favourite Fieldelo to win the 1100m sprint by nearly four lengths.
She's An Artist shares a resemblance to a certain sprinter & she might share some of that ability…

Craig Williams knows all too well the difference between good horses and better ones and She’s an Artist had him pretty excited.
“She looked impressive on debut and I spoke to Ciaron about her and the owners gave me the opportunity to ride her,” said Williams.
“I was lucky enough to go down and partner her on Tuesday morning in a piece of work and loved what I felt, she has a serious motor.
“She’s still learning what she’s doing and it’s only her second race start and first time down the straight. She was taking on a real good quality field and she just felt like everything that we hope she’s going to be and how she’s felt in the morning is there and the exciting part is she will only get better.”
