Street Cry's outstanding son Whobegotyou confirmed his position as a leading contender for the G1 Cox Plate and maintained his 100 per cent record at Moonee Valley, recording an impressive victory in the G2 Dato Tan Chim Nam Stakes on 12 September.
Settled off the pace under Damien Oliver, Whobegotyou flew around the final turn and burst clear with 200 metres left to run to win by a length from Mic Mac –reversing the form of last month’s Memsie Stakes. G1 Singapore Derby winner Jolie’s Shinju finished a further two-and-three-quarter lengths back in third.
Whobegotyou, who established himself as a top-class performer when landing last season’s G1 Caulfield Guineas has now won six times and been placed on a further seven occasions in 16 starts. Bred by Lockyer Thoroughbreds, he is from the Stakes-placed Carnegie mare Temple Of Peace.
Also on Saturday, Exceed And Excel recorded a new Black type winner when his daughter Very Discreet took the 1100m W H Wylie Handicap at Morphettville.
Bred by Mr D Peacock, Very Discreet is from the G3 winner She's Discreet, who has produced six winners from six foals to race.
