Monday's Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden–over a trip 15 yards shy of six furlongs at Naas–has an honour roll featuring multiple Group 1 winners Fairyland (Kodiac) and Alpha Centauri (Mastercraftsman), who earned their Rising Star rosettes here.This year's renewal went the way of Aidan O'Brien trainee Victorious (Wootton Bassett), who became her sire's 19th TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard, when displaying an array of gears and posting an impressive 1 3/4-length tally for the Coolmore and Westerberg partnership.“She's a lovely filly, but she's very green,” the winning trainer said. “She's obviously a very good filly, but she hasn't done an awful lot at home. She'll probably come back here for the [May 17] fillies' race, the trial for [Royal] Ascot, and then maybe the [G3] Albany.”The weak-in-the-market 100-30 chance edged right leaving the gates, tanking along in a prominent third through the early fractions and looming large travelling sweetly at halfway.Shaken up passing the quarter-mile pole, the Westerberg-bred took a number of strides to click into gear and, once doing so, delivered a stunning burst inside the final 150 yards to win, motoring away, in taking fashion from the experienced Aedhmar (Blue Point).Victorious, who took quite some time to pull up afterwards, is the fourth foal and scorer thrown by a Galileo full-sister to Group 1-winning distaffers Minding, Tuesday and Empress Josephine.Her dam Heaven On Earth, who was bred to Justify last year, is also full to G3 Derrinstown Stud 1000 Guineas Trial victrix Kissed By Angels (Galileo).Minding, in turn, is the dam of G1 Vincent O'Brien National Stakes hero Henry Longfellow (Dubawi), while the winner's second dam is G1 Coronation Stakes and G1 Matron Stakes heroine Lillie Langtry (Danehill Dancer).Victorious is a half-sister to last year's G3 Staffordstown Stud Stakes victrix Sugar Island (Dubawi) and G3 Give Thanks Stakes runner-up Mother Nature (Justify).
