Kiss the Cash kicked away Adelaide Cup and Magic Millions day in style when she won the Myer Fashions on the Field Trophy (1100m) at Morphettville on Monday.

Starting for the first time for renowned Strathalbyn horseman Greg Lesnikowski, Kiss the Cash was able to power home in the straight and beat the heavily backed Pyrenees Express.

Raced by Ross and Jill Bourne, Kiss the Cash has a reputation for bad barrier manners and has missed the start by many lengths in a number of races.

While she jumped awkwardly and was tardy away today, she was still within touch and rider Claudia Lions was able to make a mid race move to make ground and get within striking distance.

Lions was able to get plenty out of the Xaar mare as she got up to beat Pyrenees Express by a short neck. Consistent mare Falvelon’s Dream was another short head back in third place.

The Bourne’s parted with just $5,000 for Kiss the Cash when they purchased her from the draft of Kanowna Stud at the 2006 Magic Millions Adelaide Yearling Sale.

With today’s impressive win added to her tally, Kiss the Cash has boosted her record to seven wins and 13 minor placings from 35 starts. Her earnings have raced to $133,430.

The win was a timely boost for Kiss the Cash’s half brother by Ferocity who has the honour of kicking away this month’s Magic Millions QTIS 600 Yearling Sale at the Gold Coast.

The chestnut or grey yearling colt is a member of a quality draft from Oaklands Stud.

The colt is from the well related and top producing Prego mare Talarno – a dual time winner at 1200 metres.

Talarno is a half sister to the stakes winners Moon Shadow and Dasyura.

The 2010 Magic Millions Adelaide Yearling Sale kicks away at 11am (SA time) tomorrow, while the 2010 Magic Millions QTIS 600 Yearling Sale will be held on the Gold Coast on March 21 and 22.
