MY SWEETIE (ITY) (f, 2, Luck of the Kitten–Marbella Girl {Ire}, by Holy Roman Emperor {Ire}), favoured at 7-5 in this second start, zipped straight to the head of affairs and raced by her lonesome through the back straight. A rival applied some token pressure on the turn, but My Sweetie rebroke and kicked home to win by daylight as much the best to become the first winner for her first-season sire (by Kitten's Joy). It was four lengths back to Lady Affaire (Ity) (Affaire Solitaire {Ire}) in second. The bay reported home third in only prior start on May 8. The first foal from her unraced dam, she is one of only 18 foals in her crop produced by GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf second Luck of the Kitten who stands in Italy. Her second dam is Italian highweight Charming Woman (Ire) (Invincible Spirit {Ire}), winner of the G3 Premio Tudini. Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-1, €5,450.
