Former Perth mare Sheidel<\/strong> (Holy Roman\u00a0Emperor x Laventour) who was born and raised at Amarina,\u00a0had to survive a protest at Caulfield to land her first win in Melbourne for new owners.<\/span><\/h3>\n

After two luckless runs at Moonee Valley and Sandown where the daughter of Holy Roman Emperor bungled the start, Sheidel jumped away much better in Saturday’s Listed Bel Esprit Stakes.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sent out the $4 favourite, Sheidel was able to race closer under Damien Oliver and after hitting the lead early in the straight held off Girl Guide ($21) by a half-head with Under The Louvre ($6.50) a long head away third.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Dean Yendall, rider of the runner-up, fired in a protest against the winner after his mount was struck over the head with Oliver’s whip inside the 50m.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Yendall claimed the incident cost his mount three quarters of a length, however stewards weren’t comfortable the incident had cost Girl Guide the race.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Chief steward Terry Bailey said Oliver didn’t change his whip action in accidentally striking Girl Guide.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sheidel is now Adelaide bound for the Group One Sangster Stakes at Morphettville on May 7 where she will join stablemate Miss Promiscuity.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Both mares are owned by Rob Crabtree and depending on their performances could head to The Goodwood at the same track two weeks later.<\/span><\/h3>\n

Lindsay Park co-trainer Tom Dabernig said the crossover noseband and the tongue tie were taken off Sheidel.<\/span><\/h3>\n

“We thought she was resenting it a bit and costing her at the start, but today she jumped and put herself right there, but almost over travelling,” Dabernig said.<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Lindsay Park stable gained extra confidence with Oliver chasing the ride.<\/span><\/h3>\n

“With our guys if they do the work and ride the trials we use them, but we’re always happy to use Damien when we can,” Dabernig said. –AAP<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n
