Niagara filly Beyond The Fort won the final leg of the 2018-19 New Zealand Bloodstock Southern Filly of the Year Series at Riccarton on Saturday but it wasn’t enough to take the series away from the classy Pins filly Emily Jane.

Classy three-year-old Beyond The Fort franked her gritty runner-up effort in the Gr.1 New Zealand Oaks (2400m) last month with a comprehensive victory in Saturday’s Listed New Zealand Bloodstock Warstep Stakes (2000m) at Riccarton.
