Tara Madgwick - Wednesday September 2
Blue Gum Farm shuttler Canford Cliffs (IRE) has been making news at every turn in Europe this year with a string of talented winners including Harlequeen, who became his 23rd winner when scoring easily at Goodwood overnight.

Canford CliffsHaving her first start over a mile on soft ground, the Mick Channon trained Harlequeen relished the task and strode away to win by more than four lengths.

Harlequeen is the fourth winner for Aurelia, a winning Rainbow Quest half-sister to the dam of Champion Canadian Turf Horse of 2013 and Group I winner Fort Dei Marmi.

Already the sire of stakes-winners Painted Cliffs, Most Beautiful and Aktoria, Canford Cliffs returns to Blue Gum at a fee of $13,750.
