Racing: Filly to spell

Foreal continued her dominace among the three-year-old fillies with her win in the heat of the Sires' Stakes at Forbury Park.

She will now be spelled for a week before being prepared for the New Zealand Oaks and the Sires Stakes final at Addington in Christchurch next month.

"She will have a week out and we will decide later if she needs another race before the Oaks and the Nevele R final," her driver Anthony Butt said.

She had a week off after winning the New South Wales Oaks at her previous start on February 25.

It was the eighth win in nine starts this season for Foreal, raced by Mosgiel breeders Syd and Shona Brown. She has also won the Great Northern Oaks.

Foreal won by 1 1/4 lengths from Absolutely Brilliant with Bali Mystic third.
