Whobegotyou stars first up

Stable star Whobegotyou opened his spring campaign with a first up win in the Group Two MRC Lawrence Stakes at Caulfield.

The win was his tenth in an illustrious career that has thus far netted over $3.2 million in prizemoney. The six year old has performed almost exclusively at stakes level throughout his career and eight of his ten wins have been at Group One (two) or Group Two (six) level.

Despite only having won first up once previously - his sensational debut in May of 2008 - Whobegotyou had finished second at each of his other resuming runs. He opened favourite but drifted to be replaced at the jump by unbeaten mare Lights of Heaven. She was the eventual runner up and lost no admirers from a Caulfield Cup standpoint.

Whobegotyou will attempt to win his third consecutive Dato Tan Chin Nam Stakes at Moonee Valley on September 11 at his next start.
