Darley Victoria shuttler Street Boss (USA) sired his 17th black-type winner when Petits Filous kept her unbeaten intact in the G3 MRC Quezette Stakes (1100m) at Caulfield.

Street Boss had notched his 16th following Get Rhythm’s Listed score in the Ontario Debutante Stakes (1200m) at Woodbine last Sunday.

Despite a convincing one-length victory on Saturday, trainer Ciaron Maher will resist the temptation to set Petits Filous for the G1 Thousand Guineas (1600m) in October.  “She’s learning a little bit at each start but is still quite aggressive.  We will keep her to the sprint trips at this stage.”

Backed into an odds-on favourite after a couple of runaway wins at Moonee Valley, she bounced straight to the lead and was never to be headed to defeat Jalan Jalan (Foreplay) and Miss Gunpowder (Pendragon).  The G1 VRC Coolmore Stakes (1200m) at Flemington on October 31 is likely to be her major spring target.

“She wanted to overdo things a bit but was still able to kick away so she did a good job,” jockey Damien Oliver said.  “It’s the first time I’ve really put her under full pressure and she responded well.

Petits Filous (3f Street Boss – Excellent Lady by Exceed And Excel) was a $65,000 purchase from the Emirates Park at the 2014 Inglis Classic yearling sale and has now earned $204,000.  She is from a half-sister to G1 Mackinnon Stakes winner La Bella Dama.

Street Boss filly Decked Out just missed more black-type for her sire on Saturday when fourth to Just Wicked in the G2 Adirondack Stakes (1400m) at Saratoga.  She won a Santa Anita Park maiden in May and was then placed in the LR Astoria Stakes at Belmont and G3 Schuylerville Stakes at Saratoga.

Street Boss (Street Cry) is standing the coming breeding season at Darley’s Northwood Park operation in Seymour at a fee of $11,000 (inc gst).
