Background

Kiamichi was sired by Sidestep, who won the Pago Pago Stakes, the Royal Sovereign Stakes and was runner-up in the Golden Slipper Stakes. Kiamichi proved to be Sidestep's first ever winning progeny.[3]

Racing career

Kiamichi won her first ever race start at the odds of 13/2 when successful in a 2 year old handicap race at Rosehill Gardens Racecourse. Her next victory came in the Magic Night Stakes at the odds of 20/1. She defied these odds to lead all the way and with that victory gained an automatic entry into the Golden Slipper Stakes, the richest two year old race in the world which is run the following week.[4]

Kiamichi was one of six runners for the Godolphin stable in the 2019 Golden Slipper, and was also the least favoured of the six runners starting the race at odds of 25/1. She was ridden by Damian Lane to an all the way victory in the race and collected first prizemoney in excess of $2 million. [5]

Kiamichi was retired to stud as a three-year-old after failing to win any further races since the Golden Slipper.[6]

gollark: Yes. It's still a bad fire extinguisher regardless of how good the designers thought/claimed they were being.
gollark: Systems have no intentions. People in them might, and the designers probably did, and the designers also likely claimed some intention, and people also probably ascribe some to them. But that doesn't mean that the system itself "wants" to do any of those.
gollark: I think you could reasonably argue that it's better to respect institutions than ignore them because it's better for social cohesion/stability, but I don't agree that you should respect them because they're meant to be fair and because you can always get them to fix problems you experience if this isn't actually true.
gollark: If the fire extinguisher actually explodes when used to put out fires, it would be a bad fire extinguisher even if the designers talk about how good it is and how many fires it can remove.
gollark: We should be evaluating it on how well it does what we want it to, not how well the designers *claim it does*.
