It was a rewarding day for connections when Parvati Party broke through for a deserved victory at Kilmore, producing a strong performance under the guidance of Declan Bates.Purchased for just $15,000 through the Inglis Online Sale, 'Pav' has proven to be a fantastic acquisition. Her win is a reminder that success in racing isn't always determined by a horse's purchase price, but by patience, placement, and giving them every opportunity to reach their potential.Bates gave Parvati Party a smooth run throughout, when he asked the mare for an effort from the 800m mark she responded strongly to take out the win. The result was particularly pleasing for all involved, with the mare rewarding the faith shown in her since her purchase. Wins like these make the racing journey worthwhile.We are delighted to see Parvati Party continue to progress and look forward to what lies ahead for this honest mare in form.

Champagne Jenni announced herself in the best possible way, producing an outstanding first up victory for the stable, and rewarding everyone who has been involved in her journey.
Resuming from a spell and having not raced since August last year, she returned to the track in superb order. While race fitness is always a query after a long break, we were confident she had come back a more furnished and focused mare. To see her win first-up was exceptional.
Expertly ridden by Craig Williams, Champagne Jenni was given every chance to show her ability. Craig rode her with patience and confidence, allowing her to settle before producing a strong finishing effort when it mattered most. She responded courageously, showing both class and determination to secure the win.
Owned by Tony Ottobre, Champagne Jenni has always shown ability, but she has truly been a work in progress. This result is a reflection of the time, effort and thought that goes into every horse in our care. We pride ourselves on a hands-on, individual approach, and our one-on-one training style has really suited this mare. She has thrived with the extra attention, building strength and confidence at her own pace.

Champagne Jenni is a wonderful example of how patience and tailored training can bring out the best in a horse. To see her return from nearly six months away and perform at that level is incredibly rewarding for the entire team.
We&rsquo;re excited about what lies ahead for her this preparation. With natural improvement to come and the confidence of a first-up win, there&rsquo;s plenty to look forward to. It was a proud day for the stable, and hopefully the beginning of a very promising campaign.

A Meaningful First Up Win

Ridden with confidence and composure by Tom Stockdale, the mare was the beneficiary of a brave, well-judged ride. Stockdale had her perfectly positioned throughout, allowing her to settle before unleashing a powerful finish that saw her draw clear late and put the result beyond doubt.
The victory was a significant moment for owner Tony Ottobre, with Jenni the Fox further enhancing her status as a valuable mare by adding black type to her r&eacute;sum&eacute;.
Importantly, the Geelong triumph has now booked Jenni the Fox a ticket to the Magic Millions on the Gold Coast, opening the door to even greater opportunities in the weeks ahead.
A stakes win is always special. To achieve it with the first runner of the year sets an exciting tone for the season ahead. Jenni the Fox&rsquo;s Black Pearl success suggests there may be more to come.

Of course, none of it would be possible without the support of owner Tony Ottobre, whose belief in the stable and love for the game has been a driving force behind the scenes. Tony&rsquo;s long-time commitment to racing and the Jenni-named horses made this result especially sweet.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve got an amazing little team, and this win is for them, It takes a village &mdash; and I&rsquo;m so proud of ours.&rdquo;
