The Playwright Written By earned her young sire an especially apt fifth stakes winner by hanging on for a tenacious victory in the race named after his stud farm, the Widden Stakes Gr 3, m at Rosehill on Saturday. Ridden by Regan Bayliss, The Playwright enacted the standard Waterhouse-Bott position of setting the pace from gate three of nine, and kicked strongly at the metres to lead by a length.
The speedster had already shown signs that the distance of the Golden Slipper Gr 1, m might be a little too far. As meritorious as those two runs in large fields were, The Playwright gave a strong sign that metres was more to her liking on Saturday.
With blinkers added, she had to show all her fight to claim the victory by 0. The Playwright at least had bragging rights over Blitzburg, running her metres faster by 0. She has got the right attitude to do it. She has got some black type now for her residual, so if this happens to be the last run of the campaign, she has done a great job.
