Song sister joins Fanshawe team
A full sister to Soviet Song has joined the multiple Group One winner by going into training at James Fanshawe’s Pegasus stables in Newmarket.
The yearling, by Marju out of Kalinka, is owned and bred by the Elite Racing Club syndicate for whom Soviet Song has won five times at the highest level and netted almost £1m in prize money.
“She went to James’ a couple of weeks or so ago but has not been named yet,” said Elite’s racing manager Matthew Budden.
“It’s very exciting to have the both of them there.”
Soviet Song has not raced since finishing second in the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood in July – which she won in 2004 – as minor setbacks prevented her from having an autumn campaign.
“Soviet Song is at James’ having a period of rest and then will be prepared for another season,” added Budden.
