RACING She’s after black type

-

PLANS to run Sheiswhats­heis in the Townsville Cup have been shelved and the talented mare will try to win a stakes race at Doomben instead.

Sheiswhats­heis and Pindan Pearl will represent Brisbane’s premier trainer in Saturday’s Listed Tattersall’s Mile, the last stakes race of the Brisbane season.

Connection­s had earlier wanted to run Sheiswhats­heis in their hometown Townsville Cup ( 2000m) on July 29 but after talking with Gollan they elected to stay in Brisbane.

Sheiswhats­heis came back from an eight- week break to win a 1600m- open handicap at Doomben last Saturday week, beating lengths.

Queensland’s Glenlogan Park Stud bought Pindan Pearl at the Chairman’s Sale in Sydney in April and is hoping she can earn some black- type before she heads to the broodmare barn.

“She has had no luck in her races since coming from the south and she does deserve some black- type,” Gollan said. Pindan Pearl by 5 ¼
