Gai Waterhouse is beginning to marshal her big team of two year-olds for the autumn carnival and the latest to emerge is brilliant filly Global Glamour.

Bred in Victoria by Lauriston Thoroughbreds, the debutante was sent to Kembla Grange on Saturday and made short work of the ITC Corporate Members Maiden (1000m).  Taken straight to the front by Paul King, she exploded in the straight to score by more than six lengths from Godolphin filly Silent Sea.

Global Glamour started a $1.50 favourite after winning a Randwick trial earlier this month.  She is raced by 40 ladies in a syndicate called ‘It’s All About The Girls’ after making $65,000 from Lauriston Thoroughbreds at the 2015 Gold Coast Magic Millions.

“They all have to start somewhere I’m very excited about Global Glamour,” Gai said.  “She’s starting to garner quite a reputation and Tommy Berry said she was very adaptable and moved freely at trackwork last week.”

Bookmakers agreed and Centrebet introduced Global Glamour into Golden Slipper markets at $17 after her runaway victory.  She is by G1 Blue Diamond Stakes winner Star Witness and is a homebred for Lauriston’s O’Brien family from their Moonee Valley juvenile winner Spectacula (Testa Rossa).

Lauriston Thoroughbreds has 9 yearlings entered for the Inglis Melbourne Premier Sale starting with the colt by Champion Victorian stallion Bel Esprit (Lot 324) and the So You Think half-brother to Adelaide stakes performers Alcobro and Alcohol (Lot 391).
