The $175,000 Listed VRC TAB We’re On Stakes (1000m) at Flemington on Saturday was won in brilliant style by Home Affairs filly Gin Twist.

Prepared by the Lindsay Park team as was runner-up La Gitana, Gin Twist came into this race with a last start Group placing and ran right up to that good form.

Gin Twist jumped straight to the front for Luke Currie and was in cruise control up the straight before letting down with a slick turn of foot to dash clear of La Gitana and win by two lengths.

They covered the 1000m in a slick 56.92 indicating a bright future for both fillies.

“She was sharp and dynamic today and jumped straight into the bridle and controlled it and we were never really going to get beaten,” said Luke Currie.

Gin Twist had not raced since January 24 when she ran third at her second start in the Group III MRC Blue Diamond Preview, but she did have a recent jumpout up the straight which proved beneficial.

The Hayes brothers saddled three fillies in the race by Home Affairs with Jacaranda coming to the race after a game fifth in the Inglis Millennium in Sydney, but she was not as comfortable dropping back to the shorter trip and finished behind the placegetters.

“It was a very impressive win. I got a bit worried when she got a bit hot in the mounting yard and got a bit worked up, but I think having a trial down the straight is very valuable,” said Ben Hayes.

“She jumped, she looked like she was comfortable the whole race, and she really went to the line quite easily. So it was great result for the Needham’s (part owners) as they’re good supporters of us.”

Gin Twist has banked $132,850 from her first three starts and the stable have plenty of options going forward.

“She did it really well and I think it’s really exciting going forward. So we’ll have a good look at her and see how she pulls up,” Hayes added.

“We’ll have a discussion with the whole team at Lindsay Park, and we’ll work out where we go.”

Gin Twist was a $220,000 Magic Millions purchase from Newgate Farm for Lindsay Park Racing and was bred by Love Racing.

She is the third winner and first stakes-winner from four foals to race from stakes-winning Beneteau mare Twist Tops, who comes from the family of Group I SAJC Australasian Oaks winner Irish Darling.

Newgate sold a yearling full brother to Gin Twist at Magic Millions this year for $200,000 to Gao Sanxiong.
