Madame Pedrille |
The Nivison is a race for mares only over 1200m and the set weights of the race lends itself to the best female winning the majority of the time. The race will most likely attract horses who have previously run in the Gr3 Research Stakes over 1200 metres.
Madame Pedrille (2009) ran second in the Research Stakes before winning this race, while Beaucoup (3rd in 2009) and Illuminates (2nd in 2008) placed in both races.
Besame Mucho (2004) and Spinning Hill (2000) won the Research Stakes before winning this event. Coolroom Candidate (2nd 2006)and Fumble (2nd 2005) both won the Research Stakes before finishing second in this race.

2009 The Nivison: Madame Pedrille was ridden perfectly and sat behind the pace on the fence before making a move in the straight and forged clear at the 200m before holding on to win by the narrowest of margins from the fast finishing Strawberry Field who ran second, while Beaucoup ran on late to fonish third.
