Moving Melody made victory in the Windsor Park Stud Canterbury Breeders’ Stakes at Riccarton look like a walk in the park when she dictated affairs from the front to capture her first stakes victory.

The 6-year-old Deep Field mare had done most of her racing from Bruce Wallace and Grant Cooksley’s Byerley Park stable before heading south to Terri Rae’s operation at Riccarton.

The consistent mare took to her new surroundings in fine style, winning over 1000m after a brief break before finishing runner-up behind Charmrose last month.
