Tony Gollan has had a lot of success with brilliant Deep Field filly Isotope and looks to have a filly capable of following in her footsteps.

Trial watchers were all over Latakia when the expensive Deep Field filly made her career debut over 1200m at Doomben on Wednesday.

Ridden by Angela Jones, Latakia broke a step slow before taking up the running. A reminder or two at the 200m was all it needed for the powerfully built daughter of Deep Field to spear way to a four and a half lengths win in the 1200m maiden.

“She was able to control the tempo. She’s obviously a quality filly destined for far better races than this on a Wednesday and we saw that late when she was asked to extend and she really put a gap in them,” said Gollan.

“It won’t be the last you see of her today, I’m positive she can step to a stakes race over the summer.”

Described by Gollan as the ‘filly of the sale’, Latakia was a $520,000 purchase for Black Soil Bloodstock/John Foote Bloodstock/Gollan Racing, from the Attunga Stud draft at the 2021 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale.

She is a half-sister to the lightly raced I Am Invincible filly Vinicunka, who won the Group III Maribyrnong Plate on debut for Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott before finishing second to Lyre in the Group II Blue Diamond Prelude.

Latakia is the fifth winner from as many to race out of the Flying Spur mare Xandretta, a half-sister to Group I AJC Champagne Stakes winner Carry On Cutie.

Xandretta foaled a sister to Latakia on August 30.

Deep Field has 54 catalogued for the Magic Millions, 16 at the Inglis Classic and six at Karaka.
