Gr1-winning former Blue Gum Farm shuttler King Charlemagne (Nureyev-Race The Wild Wind, by Sunny's Halo) added a group success when 4YO mare Princess Gisella (King Charlemagne-Donvamore, by Rubiton) made it 3 successive wins with a 0.75-length victory in the $100,000 Gr3 Cockram Stakes (1200m) for mares 4YO & up at Caulfield. Princess Gisella (ridden by Nick Hall for trainer Robert Smerdon) defeated fellow 4YO mare Mimi Lebrock (Show A Heart-God Love It, by St Covet) & Gr1-winning 5YO mare Devil Moon (King Cugat-Classy Babe, by Masterclass).
