Showemhowitsdone takes out Gore Guineas on Saturday.
Showemhowitsdone (3 f ex Jaffari by Iffraaj) took out Saturday's Gore Guineas (Listed, 1335m) at Gore to provide former Haunui shuttler Showcasing (Oasis Dream) with his 50th stakes winner.
Trained by Shane Kennedy and Anna Furlong, Showemhowitsdone was winning for the first time since breaking her maiden in September and beat The Gift (Power) by a nose with two and a half lengths back to Chokito (Vespa) in third.
"We had put her out for a spell after she ran third at Riccarton on the middle day of Cup Week," said Kennedy.
"She did really well and we used her trial at Ashburton as a guide to where we would go with her.
"Terry rode her and was delighted with how she felt so we decided to have a crack at this one first up.
"She's about 400kgs dripping wet, so there's not much of her, but she tries her heart out and is a real dream to do anything with.
"I thought she could go a really good race and she has done just that."
Showmehowitsdoen it out of placed mare Jaffari (Iffraaj) while her third dam is Cappie (Kaapstad) who produced six winners including Group 1 winner Captivate (Stravinsky) while this is also the family of Group 1 winner Culminate (Elnadim) and Eileen Dubh (Storm Creek).
Showcasing's 2021 fee at Whitsbury Manor Stud in England is set at £45,000.
