Ciaron Maher believes the rise of

the Inglis Melbourne Premier

Yearling Sale is a sign of things

to come for a Victorian breeding

industry in the midst of a reinvigoration

after the prominent trainer leaned on an

international powerhouse in order to buy

a Lord Kanaloa (King Kamehameha) colt

for $900,000 on day two of the Melbourne

auction.

After a Written Tycoon (Iglesia) colt made

$1.1 million on Sunday, only the second

horse to sell for seven figures in the Oaklands

Junction’s sale’s history, 20 yearlings made

$300,000 or more yesterday, bringing the total

to 35 for the sale so far.

Nine of the top ten-priced yearlings

have been colts with the most expensive of those yesterday the Lord

Kanaloa colt who co-trainers Ciaron Maher and David Eustace bought

in partnership with Coolmore. The dual-state trainers already train this

season’s Inglis Nursery (RL, 1000m) winner Acrobat (Fastnet Rock) for

Coolmore, among others.

With a strong working relationship already in place, Maher and the

Coolmore team agreed to team up on the session-leading colt after both

parties assessed him on the sale grounds late last week.

“I saw the horse up at Kulani and they did a great job preparing horses

for the sale and he presented beautifully,” the leading trainer said.

“He has got a beautiful temperament. There was a horse playing up

out the back next to him and he just went about his business.

“That is something that is very important in colts. You want them to go on

and be stallions and I think he’s got the necessary characteristics to do that.

(A horse’s temperament) is a bit of an insight into how they handle pressure.

“I know they are only young and walking, but you see them on the

farm and you see them again when they first get to the sale and again

when they have been out of their stables a lot of times, particularly the

popular ones, so you can see how they react to that little bit of pressure.”

He added: “It was great to purchase another colt like this with

Coolmore. We’ve had the likes of Merchant Navy and some other really

nice horses through the stable. We’ve got Loving Gaby’s sister as well out

of Magic Millions, so they are great to race with and hopefully we can find

the next Coolmore Stud Stakes or Royal Ascot winner.”

Offered by Kulani Park on behalf of Arrowfield Stud as Lot 504, the

colt is the first foal out of ATC

Sweet Embrace Stakes (Gr 2,

1200m) winner Believe Yourself

(Sebring).

Kulani Park’s Rhys Smith

had previously rejected

overtures from Arrowfield to sell

yearlings on their behalf, but

took on the opportunity for the

2021 sale.

“Paul (Messara) had

approached me a few years ago

and we wouldn't do it then, but

we decided it would be a good

idea to do it this year,” Smith

said after the sale of the Lord

Kanaloa colt.

“He's a great colt, a really early horse, good

muscle and did everything right and looked

a treat. He did over 200 parades, which is a

lot of parading, and Coolmore has bought

him, so obviously they’ll look to win an

early race and get him to stud.

He's going to get every chance and

I think Ciaron is the right trainer for him,

Whether it be in Melbourne or Sydney I'm sure

he'll be in those early two-year-old races.”

Signing under the Ciaron Maher Bloodstock banner, the trainer has

bought 16 yearlings with various parties so far this week and he described

the sale as “very solid”.

“You have got to do your homework and the horses you like, you have

to always go a bid or two more,” he said.

“It’s always quite strong here in Melbourne and the studs like

Arrowfield have a draft through Kulani Park supporting the Victorian

breeding industry. That is great and I think the sale is getting stronger and

stronger each year.

“There are also more and more Victorian breeders and you’ve got the

likes of Toronado and Written Tycoon, who was standing here, Rosemont

is expanding and getting more active, so it is really bright for the future of

Victoria.

“It has always been second fiddle for the Hunter but it’s certainly

improving each year.”

While Maher and Eustace maintained their spot at the top of the buyers’

podium, fellow Victorian training partnerships Robbie Griffiths and Mathew

de Kock and Lindsay Park have also been active, buying eight yearlings each,

while Caulfield-based Clinton McDonald and agent-trainer brothers Paul

and Mike Moroney have also each signed for eight yearlings.

The aggregate is already up 20 per cent year-on-year, with

$56,991,500 worth of yearlings already traded at the Melbourne sale at

an average of $143,195, up 11 per cent compared to the 2020 auction.

The median of $110,000 has held firm, but the clearance rate of 86 per

cent shows the demand from a huge array of buyers to participate in

the market.

Last night, Inglis general manager of bloodstock sales and marketing

Sebastian Hutch described the proceedings at the Premier sale so far as a

“sterling two days”.

“We knew there were some good horses right the way through the

catalogue, and there are some good horses to come tomorrow, but the

nature of the competition on the really sought after horses was fantastic,"

Hutch said.

"The Lord Kanaloa colt, anyone that saw him was particularly taken aback

by him. He is a beautiful colt by a fabulous stallion which has already bred a

Blue Diamond winner out of a mare that had elite ability as a two-year-old.

"It was exciting to get him into the catalogue and then for him to measure

up the way he did was great and the competition on him was ferocious."

I Am Invincible colt makes $700,000The second highest-priced yearling sold yesterday went to Trent

Busuttin, who pinpointed an I Am Invincible (Invincible Spirit) colt as the

one for him, which led to him gritting his teeth during a spirited bidding

duel to ensure the horse was heading home to Cranbourne where he and

wife Natalie Young train.

The Group 1-winning Cranbourne-based Busuttin and Young had

identified a number of quality colts in the Melbourne catalogue and held

off strong competition to land the Vinery Stud-consigned colt who made

$700,000 early in the second session.

“He’s by the right stallion, he’s a nice type of colt, he looks like a runner,

he looks like a two-year-old. He’s got all the attributes that everyone wants

and he’s out of a Group 1-winning mare, so he was never going to be

cheap,” Busuttin said.

“He’s compact and he looks like he will be running at two and

hopefully he can be. It’s the old saying, but he ticks all the boxes. We paid

enough for him but they don’t miss them.

“They certainly don’t slow down, sales. The second and third days

get stronger and stronger, no matter what. It has shown year-round, from

Magic Millions, to Karaka to here at Premier, you just have to pay for them.

They don’t miss the good ones.”

The Neil Werrett and Darren Thomas-bred son of I Am Invincible,

offered as Lot 287, is the first foal out of New Zealand 1000 Guineas (Gr 1,

1600m) winner Risque (Darci Brahma), herself a daughter of the stakes-

placed winner So Explicit (Straight Strike).

Busuttin said: “The Written Tycoon horse ($1.1 million) early in the

sale stood out, this horse stood out and Matt Laurie’s Shalaa (who made

$700,000) did as well. I suppose you do have to pinpoint one and say,

‘that’s the colt for me’ and hopefully you get him.”

Vinery Stud’s Adam White revealed a plan was put in place to ensure

the colt became a standout of the Hunter Valley farm’s Premier draft.

“We knew there’d be a lot of I Am Invincibles up at Sydney Easter and

we really wanted a headline horse here for our Premier draft,” White said.

“We’ve always had a successful Premier sale and we always wanted to

bring a really nice colt to help the draft overall and he was obviously very

popular.

“He is a very good-looking and great-moving horse, so I think he did

his job for what we wanted him to do. To see him sell well and to go into a

good Group 1-producing two-year-old stable is tremendous for the mare

going forward.”

Smith and Boomer blow rivals out of the waterThe sale of a foal-shared Capitalist (Written Tycoon) colt yesterday

was also a milestone for both the man who will be training the horse as

well as the vendor, with the $600,000 yearling the most expensive Lindsey

Smith has bought and Caithness Breeding has sold.

Smith launched an opening $300,000 grenade, immediately

curtailing some rival competition’s hopes, before a series of bids saw the

price skyrocket to the $600,000 mark when the trainer and agent Craig

Rounsefell’s Boomer Bloodstock won out.

Sean Dingwall paid $80,000 for the colt’s dam Asheerah (Redoute’s

Choice) from the 2018 Inglis Australian Broodmare Sale when she was in

foal to Brazen Beau (I Am Invincible). The resulting filly made $135,000 at

the following year’s Inglis Australian Weanling Sale when sold by

the family’s Caithness Breeding

operation. “We breed (about 15)

mares and for him to make that

sort of money is outstanding

and by far our greatest result. We

had our best result here last year

with a Kermadec colt who made

$230,000, so to have a horse to

make $600,000 was amazing,”

said Dingwall, whose father Paul

remained at their property near Young

in southern NSW in order to prepare their draft for next week’s Magic

Millions Adelaide Yearling Sale.

“Asheerah is a Shadwell mare and we bought her off Yarraman a few

years ago. We took a Brazen Beau out of her and then put her in foal to

Capitalist. She was a foal share, so we have got to thank Newgate as well

for their support, but ultimately we had an unbelievable specimen.

“The mare is a Redoute’s mare and there’s a lot of Redoute’s in that colt

and there’s a bit more scope than a lot of Capitalists, from what people tell

us. Ultimately, he has amazing temperament and that is what sold him.”

Smith has struck success since opening a Warrnambool stable less

than two years ago and he is keen to continue mixing with the state’s

leading trainers, which has seen him up the ante at the yearling sales.

That desire prompted him to throw in a $300,000 opening bid.

“When you have got no money, you have to try something. It was a bit

of a bluff, but it backfired on me,” Smith said.

“I moved to Melbourne and I have to change my model and get some

up-and-coming young horses. I always say you buy the one you like.”

The colt, catalogued as Lot 492, is by the same sire as Inglis Millennium

(RL, 1200m) winner Profiteer and Saturday’s Festival Stakes (Listed,

1000m) winner Tycoon Humma.

Smith, a trainer noted for being able to maintain horses’ form during

extended preparations and over a number of seasons, is well aware of the need to

have success with two-year-olds in order to take his stable to the next level and

he is hopeful Capitalist’s progeny can be the ones to help him achieve it.

“Every time I watch Sky Channel, they seem to be winning every two-

year-old race. I bought one in Perth for $200,000. I just have to change my

model and be a two-year-old trainer, which will be interesting to watch,”

he said.

“I gather I'm about to find out, and it might be a bit of an expensive

lesson. Horses are horses, it's just that I've never had the money to have

had the expensive two-year-olds that are ready to go from the moment

you put the saddle on. I don’t think it’s anything too hard from what I have

achieved in the past with other horses.”

O’Shea keeps putting up finger at Freyer’s behest

Earlier, Sydney trainer John O’Shea heeded the endorsement of

Arrowfield Stud, the home of Dundeel (High Chaparral), to land a colt by

the rising stallion for a partnership set to include John Messara and agent

Suman Hedge for $550,000.

“We are really enthused by the horse, and it’s a syndicate headed by

Australia's premier breeding barn in Arrowfield. They understand the

stallion better than anyone and consequently they were kind enough to

join us in the syndicate,” O’Shea revealed.

“He made a bit more than we thought, but we were seeking

(Arrowfield’s) Jon Freyer’s guidance while we were bidding and he kept

saying, ‘it’s a Group 1 horse, just buy it’ and hopefully he is right.

“Suman Hedge has also done a lot of work at this sale for us. He's a

great young judge, and is going to take a part of him, so hopefully, the

horse can reflect that faith in his racing career.”

Sold soon after the $700,000 I Am Invincible colt was knocked down,

the Glentree Thoroughbreds-bred and consigned colt, catalogued as Lot

299, is the fourth foal out of Ruby Falls (Flying Spur), an unraced half-sister

to MRC Thousand Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) winner Irish Lights (Fastnet

Rock), herself the dam of Group 2 winner Omei Sword (High Chaparral)

and European Listed winner Lipizzaner (Uncle Mo).

O’Shea said: “He’s probably the best colt I have seen by (Dundeel)

and he has the pedigree to match it, He comes off just a wonderful farm -

Bruce Wilson has put together a great collection of broodmares - and this

is a reflection of the quality of horses that Glentree is producing.”

Glentree Thoroughbreds’ manager Luke Simpson made the call to

Wilson to consign a draft under his own banner at the Premier sale this

year and the decision paid off.

"We are absolutely delighted and it certainly exceeded our

expectations," Simpson said of the Dundeel colt.

“It was a testament to his temperament and he held that right the way

through the whole week. He did fantastically well, and he was a very busy boy.”

Ruby Falls has a filly sister to the high-priced colt at foot and she was

not served in 2020.

Sebring filly Rosemont’s latest sneaky Premier play

Last year, Rosemont Stud went “one more” at the Premier sale to buy

a Fastnet Rock (Danehill) filly, the subsequent Inglis Banner (RL, 1000m)

and Golden Gift (1100m) winner Sneaky Five, and this year principal

Anthony Mithen was pushed to the limit to buy a daughter of Sebring

(More Than Ready) for $450,000.

The most expensive filly of the sale, she is destined to wear Rosemont’s

red with white gatecrasher silks, colours also adorned by Sneaky Five and

flashy chestnut mare Brooklyn Hustle (Starspangledbanner), an unlucky

fourth in the Oakleigh Plate (Gr 1, 1100m) at her last start.

“There’s a bit of Brooklyn Hustle about her and they’re not making any

more of the Sebrings and she was, for us, the filly of the sale,” Mithen said.

“She’s out of a Shamardal mare, she’s an out-cross filly and she’s off a

farm that do a magnificent job and they continue to produce great results

at Blue Gum and we were more than happy to be pretty strong on her.

“I had to be a little stronger than what I wanted to be, but you come

here to buy the ones you want, rather than the ones that are left, as the

auctioneers often tell you.”

He added: “Certainly we’ll know a bit more about her this time next

year and hopefully we’ll see her running around in a few stakes races.

“We had a bit of luck here last year buying Sneaky Five for $305,000.

I am glad I didn’t have to go $5,000 more because I didn’t really have it.

Anyway, hopefully she’s that two-year-old type who we can have a bit of

fun with.”

She was offered by leading vendor Blue Gum Farm as Lot 321, and

is the third foal out of the Group 3-winning mare Shamalia (Shamardal),

a half-sister to Sydney

Listed winner Emperor’s

Way (Roman Emperor). Her

first foal, the metropolitan-

placed Twist Of Fury (Written

Tycoon), has won twice from

eight starts so far for trainer

David Brideoake.

Rosemont Stud, with the

backing of some high-profile

breeders, has embarked on a

colts syndicate at this year’s

yearling sales in a bid to unearth a stallion prospect but Mithen says the

need to continually reinvest in fillies with residual value was not lost on

him and owner Nigel Austin.

“When you’re a breeding farm, you’ve got to keep on replenishing

with those fillies and we like to think that we breed a nice filly, but we

don’t shut our eyes to what other people are producing,” he said.

“There’s plenty of people doing a good job breeding some nice horses,

so we’re happy to share love by buying a nice horse as well as breeding

them.”

Day three of the Inglis Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale starts at 10am

today with the conclusion of the Premier Session followed by a single

Showcase Session.

BY JO MCKINNON | @ANZ_NEWS

When Lunar Fox (Foxwedge)

crossed the line first at

300/1 odds in the Australian

Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m),

causing one of the biggest boilovers in racing

history, an eerie silence fell over Flemington

racecourse and in lounge rooms and pubs

across the country.

As the plain brown colt merrily trotted

back to scale, completely oblivious to the shock

and disbelief he’d just caused, lots of human

questions abounded.

Was it just one of those sheer flukes in

racing? After all, how could a horse nobody

wanted as a weanling and then for a period as a

yearling, step onto the Group 1 stage and leave

a couple of prized colts labouring in his wake.

With no real answers, the sport quickly

moved on at its usual frenetic pace and,

as big money began to fly around at the

Inglis Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale, his

achievement seemed all but forgotten. Many

simply put it down in the annals as one of

those unexplainable race victories, perhaps

underestimating, too, that he was already a

Sires’ Produce Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m) winner.

But, while the result left many perplexed,

it also inspired great hope in the thousands of

everyday thoroughbred breeders and trainers

who devote their life to the game. It gave them

a reason to keep daring to dream, just like his

own breeders Travis and Rebecca Kelly always

have.

The husband and wife team based at Sale

in Victoria are far from the wealthy bloodstock

powerhouses that sit behind the sexy big-name

colts such as Ole Kirk (Written Tycoon) and

Tagaloa (Lord Kanaloa) that Lunar Fox beat fair

and square on Saturday.

Travis, who works on the oil rigs out in

the Bass Strait, watched the race with his son

in front of stunned onlookers at a golf driving

range in Sunbury.

“They thought someone was getting murdered

and then they later said ‘where was our tip?’.

“I had a sentimental 25 dollars each-way on

him. I always have something sentimental on the

horses we have bred but I have lost a lot of money

along the way with that,” laughed Travis Kelly.

Casting jokes aside, Kelly reflected on

the intriguing life journey of Lunar Fox

and explained; “I bought his dam from the

broodmare sale in Melbourne. She was already

in foal with him. I really liked the Foxwedges

and we foaled him down at home.

“We got him into the weanling sale and put

a price on his head and nobody wanted him

there and got him into the Melbourne Premier

Yearling Sale and nobody wanted him there

either. Then we tried to syndicate him and train

him ourselves but we could not sell shares and

hence we fought tooth and nail to get him into

the Melbourne Gold sale.

“We got him into that sale and luckily Karina

(O’Sullivan) bought him and the rest is history.”

So what was it, in his view, that was putting

buyers off him for so long?

“The Foxwedge colts were hard to move,”

added Kelly. “He’s been known as more of a

fillies-type stallion so that probably pushed a

few away I would suggest.

“He was a lovely yearling and athletic. We

don't get them as big and bulky as other breeders,

we breed racehorses and not show ponies, so

maybe that put them off as well,” he said.

Together with Rebecca, who trains a small

string of racehorses and manages a band of

12 broodmares at their 22-acre property in

Gippsland, they juggle commitments of raising

their two young children and work long hours to pay

the feed bills and run their little horse enterprise.

Rebecca, who is out at Oaklands Junction

this week selling yearlings under their ‘Kelly

Thoroughbreds’ banner, took some time out of her

busy schedule to share her views on Lunar Fox.

“I always liked him, he had a lovely attitude.

The mare (Grant’s Moon) was lovely and had

a great attitude and she's thrown that into her

foals,” she said.

She confessed to another rejection twist in

the Lunar Fox tale that goes right back to his

first few months as a foal when he was gracing

their paddocks.

Kelly offered the original owners of his dam,

Grant’s Moon (Malibu Moon), the opportunity

to invest in him when he was a foal.

“The original breeders of the mare came

and saw him but they said no and thought the

line might not have enough depth and now

he's made the line again but unfortunately the

mare’s gone.”

Grant’s Moon’s life was cut short at the age

of just 16 after breaking her neck in a paddock

accident.

Her legacy might yet live on through two fillies

she left before her death. One is an unnamed

youngster by Holler (Commands) that Rebecca

trains herself and the other by Frosted (Tapit)

which is in a foal share arrangement with

Darley and expected to go through the Inglis

Melbourne Gold Yearling Sale this year.

The person that showed the ultimate leap

of faith in Grant’s Moon’s best son, Lunar Fox,

was trainer Karina O’Sullivan who selected him

at the Inglis VOBIS Gold Yearling Sale in 2019.

“When Karina started looking at him he got

cheeky on the turnarounds and that's what she

said confirmed her bid. Some buyers like that

bit of spunk,” said Kelly.

“Karina took the punt on him and got a

Sires’ Produce Stakes win out of him.”

Kelly admits he looked a different horse at

the Melbourne Gold sale compared to when he

was offered at Premier.

“He really furnished up after the first sale.

He went out for a month and came back in and

it did him the world of good,” she added.

“When they get broken in and have some

time out it’s amazing the step they take.”

Karina and her father Terry O’Sullivan, the

original trainers of Lunar Fox, are now serving

out a disqualification on cobalt charges and in

March last year the horse was moved into the

care of Horsham trainer Paul Preusker.

Until Saturday, his form since joining that

stable was patchy.

“He had a few just OK runs and obviously

they found the key to turning him around,” added

Rebecca Kelly. “We always had faith he had the

ability. They put the blinkers on him at the right

time and gave him a bit of

a hurdle at home and that

woke him up.”

Lunar Fox has since

been awarded a wild card

entry into the $5 million

All-Star Mile (1600m) at

Flemington on March

13 and, as he continues

on in his racing life, will

probably have to do a bit

more than the average

Group 1-winning horse to

prove his was no fluke.

As for the Kelly’s who bred this brown colt

with the crooked white blaze, life goes on as

normal doing what they love; breeding and

selling a few yearlings each year.

At yesterday’s Inglis Melbourne Premier

Yearling Sale they had no trouble this time

in selling an Impending (Lonhro) filly out of

Young Love (Danzero) for $80,000 to Moloney

Racing.

HISTORY IS BEING WRITTEN

AUSTRALIA

Kemalpasa in top shape for Newmarket assaultTrainer Richard Jolly is hoping for better luck

on the straight track at Flemington when

Kemalpasa (Magnus) lines up in the Newmarket

Handicap (Gr 1, 1200m) on Saturday. Jolly, who

trains in partnership with daughter Chantelle,

travelled to Melbourne on Saturday to watch

All Banter (I’m All The Talk) and Alleboom

(Spirit Of Boom) finish out of the placings in

their respective races. Kemalpasa, however, has

a brilliant record over Saturday's 1200-metre

course with two wins and a third from three

starts. The five-year-old gelding has had two

starts following a break, finishing second to

Behemoth (All Too Hard) in the Durbridge

Stakes (Listed, 1100m) at Morphettville in

January before running third in the Oakleigh

Plate (Gr 1, 1100m) on February 20. "He's a

horse that gets better with a bit of racing and

we're quietly confident that he's a good genuine

chance on the way he ran the other day," Jolly

said. "And he loves the straight."

Waller sprinters unlikely to clashStablemates Nature Strip (Nicconi) and Haut

Brion Her (Zoustar) are unlikely to clash in the

Challenge Stakes (Gr 2, 1000m) at Randwick

on Saturday, with Waller keen to save the latter

for The Galaxy (Gr 1, 1100m) a fortnight later.

Nature Strip showed he had returned to form

with an impressive victory in the Black Caviar

Lightning Stakes (Gr 1, 1000m) at Flemington

on February 13, while Haut Brion Her’s last

competitive run was a credible second behind

Gytrash (Lope De Vega) in the $1 million Yes

Yes Yes Stakes (1300m). "I don't think she (Haut

Brion Her) could beat Nature Strip over 1000

metres so the owners are happy to wait for the

Galaxy at this stage. But she is ready to go if she

needs to," Waller said. "You'll see her in the

nominations but I spoke to one of the owners

and he was keen to wait for the Galaxy."

Nature Strip back in Sydney for ChallengeNature Strip has continued to thrive since

returning to Sydney following his win in the

Black Caviar Lightning, according to Chris

Waller. The six-year-old was given a few days off

after holding out the late charge of stablemate

September Run (Exceed And Excel) to win

the Lightning at Flemington first up and he is

in good shape ahead of the Challenge Stakes

this weekend. "He had a few days at the farm

in Melbourne and came up the Wednesday

after his race," Waller said. "He's settled in well.

He galloped last week, galloped (Saturday)

morning and he will have one this week." There

were 11 nominations for the Challenge Stakes

on Monday, including Godolphin sprinter

Bivouac (Exceed And Excel), who also holds

nominations for the Canterbury Stakes (Gr

1, 1300m) and Newmarket Handicap (Gr 1,

1200m) in Melbourne and up-and-coming filly

Written Beauty (Written Tycoon).

All-Star Mile field confirmedThe All-Star Mile (1600m) field was completed

last night with the announcement of five

wildcard runners that will line up in the $5

million contest at Moonee Valley on March 13.

Star Of The Seas (Ocean Park) secured his berth

with victory in the Blamey Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m)

at Flemington on Saturday, while Shout The Bar

(Not A Single Doubt) has also been handed a

wildcard after claiming the Empire Rose Stakes

(Gr 1, 1600m). Saturday’s upset Australian

Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) winner Lunar Fox

(Foxwedge) will be the lone three-year-old in

the field after connections accepted a wildcard.

Mugatoo (Henrythenavigator), who finished

second in a trial at Gosford yesterday morning,

has been handed a wildcard, while the final slot

has gone to CF Orr Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m) winner

Streets Of Avalon (Magnus).

Berry excited to reunite with RemarqueTommy Berry is looking forward to reuniting

with the Team Hawkes-trained Remarque

(Snitzel) when he attempts to put his Golden

Slipper (Gr 1, 1200m) campaign back on track in

the Todman Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) at Randwick

on Saturday. Remarque, an impressive winner

on debut at Rosehill January, was slated to run

in the Silver Slipper (Gr 2, 1100m) but suffered

a setback, prompting his Hawkes Racing

training team to change course to the Todman

Stakes. Berry has not been aboard Remarque

since he finished second to Shaquero (Shalaa)

in a February 11 barrier trial but he has

been keeping an eye out for the youngster at

trackwork. "I don't ride him work at all but I did

see him at the track (last) Tuesday morning and

he looked in great order," Berry said. "Usually, if

the Hawkes team doesn't say anything to me it's a

good sign, and they haven't. It's not ideal to have

a setback and he'd have to get to the Todman and

do well to make it into the Slipper, so he's got a

hard task ahead of him."

Four Moves Ahead to improve for SlipperJohn Sargent is expecting two-year-old filly Four

Moves Ahead (Snitzel) to improve for the Golden

Slipper on March 20 following Saturday’s win

in the Sweet Embrace Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) at

Randwick. “She came through the race great,”

Sargent told SEN Track. “We took her to the beach

yesterday and had a swim today, so she’ll have

an easy week and then we’ll tighten her up for

the slipper. She should be an improved horse by

Slipper time.”

Todman to bring on ProfiteerMick Price is expecting unbeaten colt Profiteer

(Capitalist) to improve for the Golden Slipper

after he runs in the Todman Stakes at Randwick

on Saturday. Price afforded the two-year-old a

ten-day break following his devastating Inglis

Millenium (RL, 1100m) win on February 6 and the

trainer is aiming to get Profiteer in peak condition

for the Slipper. “I am trying to get the Todman to

really bring him on (for the Slipper),” Price told

Racing.com. “Whatever happens in the Todman,

wherever he runs, the race will bring him on again

because after the Millennium, he had ten days

with no saddle. So, he had a little breather. He put

on eight kilos, which became four as soon as he

came back into work, which was fine and normal.

He hasn’t missed any work, he’s lovely and sound

and I reckon the Todman will bring him on.”

Sires’ Produce next for Readily AvailabullReadily Availabull (Bull Point), winner of the

Magic Millions Clockwise (1000m) on debut

in November, is set to run in Saturday’s Sires’

Produce Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m) at Flemington. The

John Sargent-trained colt has trialed since his last-

start sixth in the Canonbury Stakes (Gr 3, 1100m)

and will appreciate the likely good ground aboard

Michael Walker.

Sydney plans for PolandMike Moroney has confirmed Poland (So You

Think) is almost back to peak condition after he

was forced to be scratched from last weekend’s

Australian Guineas due to suffering a muscle

strain in the saddling stalls before the race. If

he continues to recover, Moroney is eyeing up

the Phar Lap Stakes (Gr 2, 1500m) at Rosehill

on March 13 as his next run. "He’s pretty good

now, back to about 95 per cent so we’ll look to

see what’s there for him in Sydney,’’ Moroney

told Racing.com. "The Phar Lap Stakes might be

a chance for him depending on how he comes

through the next few days.’’

Weather to decide O’Brien’s Cup startersDanny O'Brien will pay a late entry fee to run

Paradee (Epaulette) in the Australian Cup (Gr

1, 2000m) at Flemington on Saturday, while

the weather will determine if Miami Bound

(Reliable Man) lines up, with the four-year-old

mare also nominated for Saturday’s Randwick

City Stakes (Listed, 2000m). "Miami Bound

will either run in the Australian Cup or go to

Sydney to run at Randwick, depending on the

weather," O'Brien said. "If it looks like being

wet in Sydney we would definitely go there,

but the forecast is for fine weather, so that is

something we'll certainly be watching. She's

in great shape but at that top level she needs

to get on soft ground." After a successful trip

to the Gold Coast in January, Paradee claimed

the Australian Cup lead-up, the Peter Young

Stakes (Gr 2, 1800m) at Caulfield on February

20. "Paradee is flying. She could not be in better

form," O'Brien said. "We thought it was a bit of

an ask to go up there (Gold Coast), race twice,

then expect her to run in February and March.

But she did so well that we decided to run her at

Caulfield. She's improved out of that win and is

in great shape ahead of Saturday."

Homesman late entry for Australian CupThe Anthony and Sam Freedman-trained

Homesman (War Front) will likely run in

Saturday’s Australian Cup after connections

paid the late entry fee to run the seven-

year-old. The 2018 Underwood Stakes (Gr

1, 1800m) winner has started once in the

Australian Cup, where he finished sixth

behind Harlem (Champs Elysees) in the 2018

edition. The gelding finished third behind

Paradee in the Peter Young Stakes on his last

start ten days ago.

Farnan wins Gosford trialLast year’s Golden Slipper winner Farnan (Not

A Single Doubt) impressed in a trial at Gosford

yesterday morning, winning his 1000-metre

heat comfortably under Tim Clark. The Gai

Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trained colt, who

finished tenth in the Coolmore Stud Stakes (Gr

1, 1200m) on his last competitive appearance,

led all the way under Clark, who barely asked a

question of Farnan up the straight as he eased

to a one-and-a-quarter-length win over the Kim

Waugh-trained Great News (Uncle Mo). The

pair stretched well clear of Pride Of Adelaide

(Adelaide), who finished seven lengths behind

the winner in third.

First season sire trial winners for Waterhouse & BottGai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott had a

successful morning at the Gosford trials

yesterday, with two of their winners coming

from first season sires. Tattooist (American

Pharoah), a half-sister to 2009 Thousand

Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m) winner Irish Lights

(Fastnet Rock), controlled her 1000-metre

trial under Tim Clark and defeated Costa Zou

(Sebring) by three lengths, with Pure Rubick

(Rubick) another half a length behind in third.

Tattooist, who was a $500,000 Inglis Easter

purchase from the Coolmore draft, is the ninth

foal from Aspen Falls (Hennessy). Bahahaa

(Shalaa) provided the training partnership with

another winner in the fourth trial of the day,

defeating Tequila Cabos (Press Statement) by

two and a quarter lengths in the 1000-metre

heat. Earl Of Sandwich (Hinchinbrook) was a

short-head further behind in third. Bahahaa

was a $200,000 purchase from the Arrowfield

draft at last year’s Magic Millions Gold Coast

Yearling Sale. Damien Lane also had a first

season sire trial winner courtesy of Sonnet

Star (Star Turn), who impressively landed his

800-metre heat by three and a half lengths over

Never Cry (Pride Of Dubai).

Nick Ryan to move to FlemingtonThe in-form Nick Ryan is set to move

to Flemington in the next month after

being allocated 15 boxes at a property in

Community Drive. Ryan, who has saddled

up eight winners from 26 starters in 2021, is

thrilled with the move. “To be training from

Flemington will be a dream and I feel very

privileged, they don’t call it headquarters for

nothing,” Ryan told Racing.com. “I have so

much family history there dating back almost

65 years, it’s where I did my apprenticeship

and my grandfather trained there and my

father did his apprenticeship there as well.

Leigh Jordan rang me on Friday afternoon

and it was an unbelievable thrill.” On his new

property, Ryan added: “They are almost new

facilities and it is the perfect next step for our

business. It will suit us perfectly, while there

is opportunity for growth we are very hands

on and a boutique stable and strive to have a

stable of high-class city horses.”

Horsham celebrates Lunar windfallHorsham-based trainer Paul Preusker was

delighted with how many people from his

town took the long odds of $301 for Lunar

Fox in Saturday’s Australian Guineas, with

the trainer admitting he has been inundated

with phone calls from Horsham locals who

managed to get a slice of the odds. "It was

amazing what that win has done for the town

people,’’ Preusker told Racing.com. "I got all

these calls from people who said they put ten

or 20 bucks, some even five bucks, on him

and so they were to go out and buy things

like tanker trailers and that sort of stuff. The

‘thank yous’ were coming thick and fast and

I am so glad he was able to find his best form

and get the job done.’’ Preusker admits he

too couldn’t resist the long odds. "I couldn’t

believe what odds he was and I had $10 bucks

on him and then had another $10 and then

another $10 because I just thought he was so

over the odds.’’

Barton’s fairytale start22-year-old Tyson Barton rode a winner

from his first ride as a picnic jockey, having

only had his application approved 48 hours

prior. The Kilmore-based Barton, who rides

trackwork for Jody Thompson and Alicia

McPherson, is a six-foot carpenter by day but

managed to partner Go Ferrando (Teofilo) to

victory for Thompson in the final 1830-metre

race at Alexandra on Saturday. “I think I’ve

watched the replay about 30 times,” Barton

told Racing.com. “I was so nervous I didn’t

want to stuff it up. Jody just said go to the

front, there’s no pressure and just go out

and enjoy it. My initial feeling was I can’t

believe I just did that. The other horse got

a head in front of me but out of nowhere he

picked up for me and I knew I had won. There

was plenty of excitement with my mum and

family and friends there.”

New board members for NSWROAThe NSW Racehorse Owners’ Association

have recruited two new board members,

Dr Karin Attebo and Brad McDonnell. “We

are thrilled to welcome Karin and Brad as

directors,” NSWROA president, Tony Mitevski,

said. “The Association is keen to make a firmer

footprint on the NSW racing industry and these

appointments will strengthen and add value

to our Board. Protecting and furthering the

rights and status of owners, the life blood of

racing, is our main objective. Racing’s Night

of Champions is of course our flagship event

and we also hold various other racing-related

functions per year. Our aim is to have as many

NSW racehorse owners, no matter how big

or small, join the Association to fortify our

position in the industry.” For more information

(ARC), the New Zealand Trainers’ Association

(NZTA), the Racing Integrity Unit (RIU) and

TAB NZ agreed that Ellerslie on Sunday is

still the preferred option. However, should

Auckland remain at Covid Alert Level 3 at that

time, the alternative venue will be Hawke’s

Bay and the Hastings racecourse. “While we

acknowledge that this is not going to please

everyone, Hastings is the only viable option.

As the home of our spring triple crown it is

a Group 1 venue and as such a fitting host

for the Derby if alert levels do not change,”

NZTR CEO Bernard Saundry said. “The Te

Aroha track was inspected earlier today

and, following recent racing and the fact the

club was not expecting to race again until

March 21, it was not deemed suitable for

this weekend.” A final decision is expected

following the prime minister’s Friday

afternoon media conference.

TOSEN STARDOM - SON OF WORLD CHAMPION DEEP IMPACT| 17 |

Late Derby contender On DisplayThe Danny Walker-trained On Display

(Showcasing) is likely to be a late nomination

for the New Zealand Derby (Gr 1, 2400m) after

his final serious hit-out this morning. Walker

has been pleased with On Display’s three-year-

old preparation, which has included placings

in the Auckland Guineas (Gr 2, 1600m) and the

Avondale Guineas (Gr 2, 2100m). On Display

was also fourth in the Karaka Million 3YO

Classic (RL, 1600m) in January to exciting three-

year-olds Aegon (Sacred Falls) and Amarelinha

(Savabeel), both of which have bypassed the

Derby. “We are looking to late nominate for the

Derby, we will decide in the morning,” Walker

said. “He has got good form and we might as

well have a go if he is 100 per cent. We will work

him tomorrow and if everything is okay we will

go ahead.”

In-form Grylls looks to rides aheadIn-form jockey Craig Grylls, who notched a

treble on Saturday, currently sits second on

the jockeys’ premiership with 56 winners and

is hoping for a couple more winners with some

big rides this weekend. Grylls partners pre-post

New Zealand Derby favourite Rocket Spade

(Fastnet Rock) and he is excited to get back on

him. “He’s really exciting. He feels like a proper

horse should when you’re riding him,” Grylls

said. “He can get a little bit keen and over-race

if you dig him too much, but apart from that

he’s pretty push-button and can travel into the

race when you want him to. Nobody knows if

any of them are going to get the 2400 metres

until the actual day, but you’d think at this

point he would.” Other potential weekend rides

for Grylls include Bonny Lass (Super Easy) in

the Sistema Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m), Tiptronic

(O’Reilly) in the New Zealand Stakes (Gr 1,

2000m) and Star Tsar (Fastnet Rock) in the

Auckland Cup (Gr 1, 3200m).

Suffused sold to Hong KongThe Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman-

trained Suffused (Choisir) has been sold

and will continue his racing career in Hong

Kong, owners China Horse Club announced

yesterday. The three-year-old colt won once

from five starts in New Zealand and finished

runner-up in September’s El Roca Trophy

(Listed, 1200m). He was also beaten just three-

quarters of a length in October’s Hawke’s Bay

Guineas (Gr 2, 1400m), finishing fifth behind

Aegon (Sacred Falls). In a tweet announcing the

news, the China Horse Club said: “The striking

son of Choisir had good form around the best

three-year-olds in New Zealand for Andrew

Forsman and Murray Baker. We look forward to

seeing him in the winners circle in Hong Kong.”

ASIA

HK: Classique Legend wins Conghua trialClassique Legend (Not A Single Doubt) has

taken a step towards returning to competition

with a soft trial win at Conghua yesterday.

Pitted against three other rivals, the world’s

equal top-rated sprinter cruised over the

800-metre journey to win the trial after sitting at

the tail of the small field. All being well, trainer

Caspar Fownes could aim Classique Legend at

the Sprint Cup (Gr 2, 1200m) at Sha Tin on April

5. “He went good,” Fownes said. “I just wanted

him to have a very easy trial. He jumped well

but I told the boy to get him back, relaxed and

switched off – he trialled pretty good. He wasn’t

there to be winning or anything but he still won

it – he was just there to be going around easy.”

Fownes said Classique Legend would trial

again before resuming. “He’ll be trialling again

in a couple of weeks,” Fownes said. “The plan is

to run him in early April if everything is going

smoothly. He’s passed his vet exam and his

official trial, so he’s got no more restrictions on

him. The plan is to take him forward to another

trial because today’s trial was only over 800

metres, to have another little stretch, keep him

happy and build him back up again.”

Stakes (Gr 1, 1m 4f ) heroine produced her

first winner last term when Almighwar

(Dubawi) struck twice at Kempton, and

the ten-year-old will be joined by Group 3

winner Thawaany - a Tamayuz (Nayef ) half-

sister to St Leger hero Kew Gardens (Galileo)

- in visiting the Ballylinch Stud resident.

Tawkeel (Teofilo), an impressive winner of

last season's Prix Saint-Alary (Gr 1, 1m 2f ),

will be covered by the mighty Dubawi (Dubai

Millennium), who is also set to be visited

by Alandalos (Invincible Spirit), who is out

of the Classic victress Ghanaati (Giant's

Causeway). Another high-class mare set for

a superstar covering is Enbihaar (Redoute’s

Choice). The five-time Group 2 winner is set

for a first covering by Kingman (Invincible

Spirit).

UK: Moyglare's broodmare band set for top sires All Our Tomorrows (Kingman), an exciting

new recruit to Moyglare Stud’s broodmare

band having been purchased for 1,700,000gns

from the Ballymacoll Stud dispersal, is set for

a star first date with Dubawi. The dual Group

LLOYD JACKSON | @ANZ_NEWS

The race of the year.” At least so far,

according to the reaction of many

after a thrilling finish and sterling

win by Verry Elleegant (Zed) in

the Chipping Norton Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) at

Randwick on Saturday. This is what racing is all

about.

Chris Waller described her effort as being

that of a tiger. However, you never want to

tangle with a determined tigress, either.

“She loves a fight,” said Waller. “Everyone

saw her fighting qualities today. I thought

Colette had us cold at the 300-metre mark and

then I saw Avilius coming with a well-timed run

and she was in the middle of them. Yeah, she

dug deep, it was a very good win.”

The mare keeps the NZ flag flying high and,

with her seventh Group 1 success, showing

immense versatility, she now has a firm grip on

the rich Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m),

the finale to The Championships.

In between now and then Verry Elleegant

may well add to her Group 1 haul as the Ranvet

Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m) and Tancred Stakes (Gr 1,

2400m) are both in her sights.

Yet Verry Elleegant’s sire, the now 18-year-

old Zed (Zabeel), is one that very much falls

into an ‘underappreciated’ category.

When it comes to siring winners, the

Grangewilliam Stud stallion’s credentials are

solid, but, oddly, that doesn’t always translate

to sales demand or sales success.

Zed’s history is well documented. A winner

of a maiden in four starts on the track before

injury curtailed his career, his bloodlines are

flawless, starting with being a son of champion

sire Zabeel (Sir Tristram). Moreover, his dam

is a Group 1-winning three-quarter sister to

five-time Group 1 winner Danewin (Danehill)

and to top sire Commands (Danehill) while

his granddam, Cotehele House (My Swanee),

daughter of the famed Eight Carat (Pieces Of

Eight), is also the fourth dam of Verry Elleegant.

His blood is purple yet his sire record goes

relatively unnoticed. The demand for his stock

at recent sales doesn’t match his ability to get

winners - 144 of them in total, of which 14 are

stakes winners.

He has a very mixed history which includes,

incredibly, a stint serving Clydesdale mares. That

would seem a hurdle too tall to overcome yet he has,

and this season is proving to be one of his best.

In January, Waisake claimed the Wellington

Cup (Gr 3, 3200m), a week ago Robusto bagged the

Avondale Cup (Gr 2, 2400m) and, of course, Verry

Elleegant is going gangbusters across the Tasman.

Furthermore, Irish Flame had a very lucrative

spring in Victoria, culminating with a win in the

Ballarat Cup (Listed, 2000m). A two-year-old

Group 3 winner in New Zealand, he has won nine

times with stakes earnings of $700,000.

Speaking to ANZ Bloodstock News

yesterday, Grangewilliam Stud’s Mark

Corcoran, with half a laugh, believed the sire

was indeed, very much underappreciated.

“Yes, he definitely is,” said Corcoran. “I

was looking at his average earnings stats per

runner. His colts earn an average of $62,000

and his fillies $105,000. They don’t fetch big

money at the sales and his service fee is very

modest so he compares very favourably with

Savabeel.”

When asked about any increased enquiries

for the stallion’s services, considering his recent

results, Corcoran replied, rather candidly: “No,

not really. His first year he got a good-sized

book but after that it has dropped away. The last

few years he has served 60 to 65 mares.

“They’re just not horses that sell well so he

hasn’t been hugely supported. He doesn’t leave

big, outstanding looking yearlings but they can

run. He has over 140 individual winners and 14

stakes winners, that’s one in ten will get you a

stakes winner.”

LLOYD JACKSON SURVEYS THE NZ SCENE

“He got off to a rough start as a sire and that

is hard to shake off. Then again, what he has

done, he’s done it the tough way, all the way,”

added Corcoran.

“If he’d been at one of the big studs he could

have been anything but he got hurt and didn’t

do it on the track so he was never going to get

that major start.”

Regarding the future for Zed, Corcoran is

optimistic.

“Irish Flame finished just in behind them in

the Blamey on Saturday,” he said. “He would be

looking for a little more distance but is shaping

up nicely.

“I’ve had few conversations with several

trainers and there are a number of good ones

coming through the ranks. I keep hearing good

things so it’s not going to end for while yet.

“The Jomara boys have a couple and Allan

Sharrock tells me he has a pretty smart one,

too.”

The weekend also saw another stallion

collect a notable success who could fall into the

unenviable ‘underappreciated’ category, this

time on home soil as the Matamata Breeders’

Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) went the way of Bonny

Lass (Super Easy).

In what was a strong performance as well

as a clever ride from Craig Grylls, the filly

delivered a sixth individual stakes winner for

Hallmark Stud’s Super Easy (Darci Brahma),

who is showing signs of having a promising

future, despite not having worthy recognition

thus far.

Many forget that Super Easy was no slouch

before he departed NZ shores for Singapore.

In three starts at two he won at Trentham, ran

second in the Eclipse Stakes (Gr 3, 1200m) then

finished fourth in the 2011 Karaka Million (RL,

1200m).

In Singapore the following season he was

unbeaten in 11 starts including five stakes wins

and was declared champion three-year-old,

champion sprinter and Singapore Horse of the

Year. Yes, he was that good.

At four, from nine starts he added a further

three stakes wins and finished third against

the internationals in the Krisflyer International

Sprint (Gr 1, 1200m). He racked up another

Horse of the Year title and was champion

sprinter a second time.

In addition to being very capable on the

track, Super Easy is also very well related. His

sire Darci Brahma (Danehill) was the champion

NZ two- and three-year-old of his crop and

is now consistently among the leading New

Zealand sires with 11 Group 1 winners out of a

total of 51 stakes winners.

Super Easy’s dam, 2015 NZ Broodmare of

the Year Parfore (Gold Brose), has produced

Group 1 winners Tiger Tees (Dubawi) and

Terravista (Captain Rio), Group 2 winner Ball

Of Muscle (Dubawi), Listed winner Our Lukas

(Generous) and Super Easy. The on-track

record of these five reveals a combined record

of 64 wins, including 34 of them at stakes level.

Bonny Lass is Super Easy’s fourth stakes

winner this season. Super Strike took out

the Anniversary Handicap (Gr 3, 1600m) at

Trentham in January. The four-year-old has a

super strike rate of five wins and four placings

in nine starts and looks like a miler with a very

bright future.

Sheezallmine beat a quality field in the

Stewards’ Handicap (Gr 3, 1200m) in November

while, more recently, Spine Tingle was a last-

start winner of the Oaks Prelude (Listed,

1800m) at New Plymouth a month ago.

Bonny Lass is the third winner and first

stakes winner from the Listed-placed Le Bec

Fin (Tale Of The Cat) mare Posh Bec, a winner of

three races. She is all-Hallmark-bred as Le Bec

Fin was resident at Hallmark Stud where Super

Easy (Darci Brahma) is currently domiciled.

Mark Baker, principal at Hallmark Stud,

told ANZ Bloodstock News yesterday that he

believes Super Easy is representing excellent

value for breeders.

“The term “underappreciated” is quite

true. He is value, there’s no doubt about it,”

responded Baker. “After Saturday’s Breeders’

Stakes, his stakes-winners-to-runners ratio,

of the sires based in New Zealand, has him

heading the rankings for the current season,

ahead of Savabeel.

“We have plenty to hang our hats on this

season but, interestingly, all the stakes winners

have been retained by their breeders.

“Bonny Lass was born and raised here

at Hallmark. Sandy Moore, vice president at

Ellerslie, bred her. He also bred and raced her

mother, Posh Bec, who won three and ran

second in the Soliloquy Stakes, and it went from

there,” added Baker.

“Hallmark leased Posh Bec from Sandy and

we got a filly by Shocking. The filly (at foot) was

late so the mare has had a rest but she is booked

to Super Easy again this coming spring.”

Super Easy is only twelve and his eldest are

six-year-olds. His best may not have been seen

yet, but there is little doubt that his bookings

will increase this year and very likely the quality

of his mares will too.

Bonny Lass TRISH DUNELL

Kiwis in AustraliaWhile Verry Elleegant stole the show at

Randwick with her fabulous performance,

in Melbourne another Kiwi, Star of The Seas

(Ocean Park), also representing the Waller

stable, cemented his place in the lucrative All-

Star Mile (1600m) to be run at Moonee Valley

on March 13.

Bred by Brent and Cherry Taylor at

Trelawney Stud, Star Of The Seas’ Blamey

Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m) victory ranks as the best of

his eight career wins.

In addition to the All-Star Mile, Star Of

The Seas holds a nomination to the Doncaster

Handicap (Gr 1, 1600m), a race in which he

finished second last year, one of four Group 1

placings he has assembled, all at Randwick.

Star Of The Seas is one of six winners and

the second stakes winner from his imported

dam Stella Livia (Titus Livius), herself a half-

sister to German champion Ransom Of War

(Red Ransom).

Meanwhile, over in Perth at Ascot there

were two stakes races run and the Kiwis were

triumphant in both.

The Bob Peters-bred and raced Western

Empire (Iffraaj) gave his opponents no chance

whatsoever over the concluding stages of the

Lex Piper Stakes (Listed, 1600m), bolting clear

by five and half lengths.

Foaled in New Zealand, Western Empire

went into the race with a win and three stakes

placings to his name and came out of the race

with his maiden stakes success at start seven.

He is the first stakes winner from Western

Jewel (Jeune), winner of the 2011 Perth Cup (Gr

2, 2400m), one of her eight wins.

Two races later, the Kiwi-bred three-year-

old filly Brave Angel (Tavistock) upset the

favourite Solaia (Toronado) in the Ascot 1000

Guineas (Listed, 1800m). Solaia looked the

winner at the 200 metres but Brave Angel cut

her down in the last couple of strides to claim

her maiden stakes win at start seven.

Brave Angel was offered but passed in out

of Brighthill Farms’ 2019 Karaka Book 1 draft.

Her winning dam, Svita (Success Express), has

produced three winners and now two stakes

winners. Her first, Astara (Dalghar), is the winner

of Ellerslie’s Soliloquy Stakes (Gr 3, 1400m).

Svita is a half-sister to Sandown Guineas (Gr

2, 1600m) winner Schilling (Bianconi) as well as

Group 3 winner Estonian Princess (Snitzel).

The Local SceneOtaki staged their Weight-For-Age

Classic on Saturday and, against a small

field of seven, Avantage (Fastnet Rock) was

not expected to be extended. However,

Callsign Mav (Atlante), second to her in the

BCD Group Waikato Sprint (Gr 1, 1400m) at

Te Rapa two weeks ago, ran the now eight-

time Group 1 winner to a shortening three-

quarters of a length deficit at the line.

Rider Opie Bosson commented: “I could

see him (Callsign Mav) out of the corner of my

eye, but once I gave her a few backhanders she

put her head out and had a crack.”

Meanwhile travelling stable-head Paul

Richards added: “Half way down the straight

she had a fight on her hands and she found

plenty.”

Avantage is giving stablemate Melody Belle

(Commands) a good run for her money as the

best in the country. Her next assignment is the

Bonecrusher New Zealand Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m)

and it is very possible that the two stable stars

will clash.

At Matamata, the two-year-old colts’ race,

the Matamata Slipper (Gr 3, 1200m), went

the way of the Australian-bred Sword Of State

(Snitzel). And most impressive he was too.

Ineligible for the Karaka Million (RL,

1200m), he gave the winner of that race,

stablemate On The Bubbles (Brazen Beau), a

galloping lesson and at the finish was out on his

own by more than six lengths. The time was a

very sharp 1:08.78.

Paisley Park (Azamour), a six-year-old, was

finally rewarded with his maiden stakes success

when taking out the Kaimai Stakes (Listed, 2000m).

He is one four winners and the first stakes

winner from his dam Musical Magic, herself a

member of the one and only crop of champion

sprinter Mozart (Danehill), once dubbed “The

Flying Machine” by The Racing Post.

BY HARRY TROY | @RACINGMACAU

A treble across the weekend’s racing

took Japanese rider Masakazu

(Masa) Tanaka to 17 winners for

the season, and fifth in the jockeys’

rankings, as he attempts to reel in the leading

trio of Luis Corrales, Eric Cheung and Peter Ho.

Tanaka has been in great form since the start of

the Year Of The Ox, with five winners from the

last three meetings in February.

Honey Biscuit (Showcasing) got Tanaka off

the mark on Friday with a hard-fought win over

Rayson Warrior (Redwood) in the 1510-metre

Class 6. On a rain-soaked night on the sand,

Honey Biscuit refused to concede to Rayson

Warrior, who fought stoutly under Peter Ho to

go down by a neck, with Yatholing (Exosphere)

back in third.

While the rain was gone by Saturday, it left

conditions on the turf very soft. That played

right into the hands of six-year-old Fully

Realised (Fully Fledged), who broke his maiden

status under Tanaka in the opening 1200-metre

Class 6.

Also trained by Stephen Chow, Fully

Realised was still a maiden after 21 starts,

with only four placings to his credit. The

perseverance by owner Mr Yeung Kam Wing,

who also races Honey Biscuit, eventually paid

off, with the gelding suited by the soft track.

The soft turf conditions were also a friend

to former Victorian sprinter Golden Key (Pins),

who led throughout under Tanaka to win the

Class 4 over 1200 metres and notch win number

two in the enclave.

Prepared in Macau by Champion trainer

Tony Fung, Golden Key originally kicked off his

career in New Zealand with Jim Collett, where

he had three unplaced runs, before being

shipped to Victoria to the yard of Matthew

Ellerton and Simon Zahra.

From 12 starts in Victoria the gelding won

two races and finished second three times, all

on soft tracks, before being sold to Macau. One

would have thought

the gelding would

be suited to Macau,

where wet tracks are

common, however, in

his 25 runs in Macau,

Golden Key has only

struck five genuinely

wet tracks, resulting

in two wins and three

placings.

Like Golden

Key, Masa Tanaka

has also done his

share of traveling.

After completing his

apprenticeship at

Racing Queensland’s

Apprentice Academy, Tanaka commenced riding

in New Zealand where he competed for a number

of seasons, with a highlight being his Thorndon

Mile (Gr 1, 1600m) victory aboard Booming (Don

Eduardo). Tanaka then set his sights on Korea and

rode more than 150 winners in four seasons there.

Wanting to broaden his horizons, Tanaka

arrived in Macau in January last year. After a

frustrating start, he managed to ride his first winner

in March for trainer Geoff Allendorf aboard Luen

On Success (Lord Kanaloa) and went on to finish

the season in August with 12 winners.

A big break came for Tanaka when he was

asked by former Champion trainer Stanley Chin

to join the stable, sharing the bulk of the rides with

Eric Cheung. After a slow start to the season, he is

now starting to hit his stride and his services are

being utilised by many other trainers.

Former New Zealander Qian Gua (Cape

Blanco) was another that appreciated the wet

conditions and made it three wins over the

1800-metre course in the Class 2 & 3 Handicap

under Breinell Yamzon.

Six-year-old Qian Gua won two races

in New Zealand under the care of Stephen

Autridge and Jamie Richards, as well as placing

five times from his 16 runs there.

There is nothing like a wet track to throw

in an upset, and that’s exactly how things

unfolded in the Class 2 & 3 Handicap over 1500

metres with Electroplate Alloy (Golden Archer)

pulling off a surprise win.

Ridden by Roger Yu and trained by Alan

Tam, Electroplate Alloy loved the very soft

conditions, leading throughout to defeat

favourite Nuclear Fusion (Sebring), with

Victory Moment (Dragon Pulse) back in third.

Five-year-old Electroplate Alloy has been

a great buy for owners Lee Yuen Fat and Lau

Pang, who picked up the gelding for the modest

sum of AU$37,500 at the 2017 Inglis Melbourne

Ready To Race Sale.

After Saturday’s win, his record stands at 28

starts for six wins and 12 seconds.

Both Nuclear Fusion, who raced in

Australia as Mandela, and Beauty Bolt

(Redoute’s Choice), who performed in Group

company in Victoria and ran a creditable fourth

in the VRC Oaks (Gr 1, 2500m) at Flemington,

were expected to dominate the race. However,

neither performed to expectations and Nuclear

Fusion got through the conditions well, with

Beauty Bolt beaten seven and quarter lengths

into fifth.

New first season sire winnersAstern - Two of Darley’s first season sires

produced new individual winners on Tuesday

as Seradess (2 f ex Obsidian Dragon by Hidden

Dragon) dead-heated with Cloudy (Frosted)

in a thrilling finish to the Roll The Dice Racing

2YO Fillies Maiden Plate (1000m) at Bendigo. The

former was a first winner for Astern (Medaglia

D’Oro), who won the 2016 Golden Rose Stakes

(Gr 1, 1400m) and was subsequently second in

the Coolmore Stud Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m). Trained

by Mark Kavanagh, Seradess was ridden by Joe

Bowditch who believed he had collared the Jamie

Kah-ridden Cloudy as his mount joined that duo

on the line. "You think you've beaten her (Kah)

and she still gets you," Bowditch told Racing.com.

"She was very green, she took everything in today

and had a good look around, so I would think

she'll improve a lot from that." Bred by Quality

Thoroughbred Breeding Joint Venture, Seradess

was bought by her trainer from the Magic Millions

Gold Coast Yearling Sale, realising $50,000 from

the Mill Park Stud draft. She is the first winner

from the stakes-placed Obsidian Dragon (Hidden

Dragon), who is herself a three-quarter sister to

the Listed scorer Danedina (Danehill Dancer).

Astern covered 72 mares at a fee of $22,000 last

year, while Seradess is one of 112 live foals to have

come from his first crop.

Capitalist - Kalashnikov (2 c ex Rough

Ride by Flying Spur) broke his maiden at the

fourth attempt on Wednesday to provide first

season sire Capitalist (Written Tycoon) with

his sixth individual winner. Trained by Paul

and Peter Snowden, Kalashnikov took out

the CG&E Maiden Plate (1100m) at Gosford

under Jason Collett, defeating Godolphin’s

Raoul (Kermadec) by a long neck. Double Ex

(Exosphere), the $2.70 favourite, was the same

distance behind in third. Kalashnikov is the

second foal out of Flying Spur (Danehill) mare

Rough Ride, who has produced two winners

from two runners. Newgate Farm’s Golden

Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner Capitalist

already has a stakes winner to his name

courtesy of Inglis Millennium (RL, 1200m)

winner Profiteer. Capitalist covered 237 mares

in 2020, his fourth season at stud, at a fee of

$44,000 (inc GST).

Frosted - Cloudy’s (2 f ex Applegate by

Ingratiating (Frosted) and General Beau

(Brazen Beau) in the Maribyrnong Trial

(Listed, 1000m) at Flemington on October 3,

while she got off the mark at the fourth time of

asking despite idling under Kah’s urgings. "She

was just wandering around, she just needed

another horse to take us a bit further," Kah

told Racing.com. "When the leader (Audrey

Girl) stopped, she just wanted to do a bit

wrong. The team placed her lovely today, she's

maturing every race. She was a bit fierce last

start and today she was in a really good rhythm

and comfortable. A dead-heat is better than

nothing." Cloudy is a half-sister to last season's

city-placed juvenile Favell (Street Boss),

being out of Ottawa Stakes (Listed, 1000m)

heroine Applegate (Exceed And Excel), who

herself is a half-sister to Summer Cup (Gr 3,

2400m) winner Yulalona (Dubai Destination).

Cloudy joins Ingratiating and Frost Flowers

as southern hemisphere winners for Frosted,

with all three having already achieved black

type. Frosted covered 131 mares at a fee of

$22,000 in 2020, while he is currently standing

at Darley’s Jonabell Farm in Kentucky for a fee

of US$25,000 (approx. AUD$31,650).

Maurice - Maurice (Screen Hero) sired his

second Australian winner in style on Friday as

impressive debutant Mazu (2 c ex Chatelaine

by Flying Spur) led home Conrad (Maurice) in

a 1100-metre Canterbury Maiden to earn the

former Japanese Horse of the Year a quinella.

The Peter and Paul Snowden-trained Mazu

showed plenty of promise in a Randwick

trial last week and backed that up with a

commanding front-running performance

under Tommy Berry, who guided Mazu to

a head win over Conrad. Jai Lei (Sebring)

finished one and a quarter lengths back in

third, while hot favourite Forbes (Capitalist)

failed to finish in the picture. Mazu, a

$180,000 Classic Yearling Sale purchase by

Triple Crown Syndications, could be put on a

path to the Golden Slipper, with the training

partnership set to make a plan depending on

how Mazu pulls up over the coming days. He

is the fourth winner out of Chatelaine (Flying

Spur) and is a half-brother to Coolmore Stud

Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner Headway (Charge

Forward). Maurice, who shuttled to Arrowfield

for three seasons between 2017-2019, is the

sire of Japanese stakes winner Pixie Night. He

stands at Shadai Stallion Station for a fee of

8,000,000 JPY (approx. AU$100,000) in 2021.

Shalaa - Cheerful Legend (2 c ex Jemison

by Commands) broke his maiden at the

third attempt in the 1200-metre two-year-

old handicap at Moonee Valley on Friday to

provide Arrowfield shuttler Shalaa (Invincible

Spirit) with his third Australian winner. The

John Sadler-trained colt cruised to a two-

length win over the James Cummings-trained

Micro (Medaglia D'Oro), with Treporti (I Am

Invincible) another two and a half lengths back

in third. Cheerful Legend is a half-brother to

dual Hong Kong Group 1 winner Contentment

(Hussonet) and is the fourth winner from

four runners for Commands (Danehill) mare

Jemison. Shalaa, the sire of Breeders’ Plate (Gr

3, 1000m) and Magic Millions 2YO Classic (RL,

1200m) winner Shaquero, is currently standing

at Haras de Bouquetot in France for a €15,000

(approx AUD$23,300) stud fee.

New Group/Grade 1 winnersAll Too Hard - Vinery Stud's All Too Hard

(Casino Prince) brought up his third individual

Group 1 winner as Forbidden Love (3 f ex Juliet's

Princess by More Than Ready) burst through

late to claim the Surround Stakes (Gr 1, 1400m)

at Randwick on Saturday. A $150,000 purchase

for Richard Freedman at the Magic Millions

Gold Coast Yearling Sale in 2020, Forbidden

Love is out of the stakes-placed Juliet's Princess

(More Than Ready), who has a colt by Epaulette

(Commands) at foot and was served by All Too

Hard in 2020. All Too Hard stood for $27,500 in

2020.

Captain Of All - Group 1-winning sprinter

Captain Of All (Captain Al) became a Group

1-winning stallion after his son Linebacker (3

g ex Thin Red Line by Redoute’s Choice) took

out Saturday’s Cape Derby (Gr 1, 2000m) at

Kenilworth. Trained by Vaughan Marshall,

the gelding was winning for the second time

in six starts as he beat favourite Rascallion

(Vercingetorix) by a length and a half. The

Gatekeeper (Dynasty) was another half a length

away in third. Linebacker is out of the Group

3-placed Thin Red Line (Redoute’s Choice).

Captain Of All stands at Klawervlei Stud for a

fee of R10,000 (approx. AUD$850).

Foxwedge - In a shock victory, Lunar Fox

(3 c ex Grant's Moon by Malibu Moon) became

a fifth Group 1 winner for Foxwedge (Fastnet

Rock) in the Australian Guineas (Gr 1, 1600m)

at Flemington on Saturday. Lunar Fox was

a $40,000 purchase by TKO Racing from the

Inglis Melbourne Gold Yearling Sale in 2019.

His dam, Grant's Moon (Malibu Moon), died

in September last year, and has a yearling filly

by Frosted (Tapit). Foxwedge stood the 2020

breeding season at Woodside Park Stud for a

fee of $11,000.

New stakes winnersAzamour - The Graham Richardson and

Rogan Norvall-trained Paisley Park (6 g Musical

Magic by Mozart) took out the Kaimai Stakes

(Listed, 2000m) at Matamata on Saturday to

provide the late Azamour (Night Shift) with

his 43rd individual stakes winner. Fourth in

the Taranaki Cup (Gr 3, 1800m) at his last start,

Paisley Park shot to the front rounding the home

turn before holding out all challenges to win by

half a length from Central Districts visitor Pep

Torque (Nadeem). Yatima (Savabeel) was the

same margin adrift in third. “He is a true mile

and a quarter horse, so it suited him perfectly

today,” Richardson said. “Wiremu (Pinn, jockey)

followed instructions to the letter as we wanted

him to give him a dig out of the gates and race

handy. He had to go early and thankfully he did

that, as it was the winning of the race. I haven’t

got any plans for him and will just let this all

sink in as we celebrate tonight.” He continued:

“The two wins today have given me one of the

biggest thrills I’ve ever had in life. I’ve won races

like the Matamata Cup here on my home track

but there is just something special about taking

out the feature event the club has and winning

another big one, all on the same day.”

Bodemeister - Arkansas Derby (Gr 1, 9f)

winner Bodemeister (Empire Maker) took his

tally of individual stakes winners to 20 when

Wholebodemeister (3 f ex Wholelottashakin

by Scat Daddy) scored for the third time in

seven starts by taking out Gulfstream’s Davona

Dale Stakes (Gr 2, 1m) on Saturday. Sent off

an unfancied 52-1 chance, the Juan Carlos

Avila-trained filly belied her odds as she came

home six and a half lengths clear of her nearest

pursuer, Crazy Beautiful (Liam’s Map), who

in turn was another length and a half clear of

third-placed Competitive Speed (Competitive

Edge). Wholebodemeister is the sole winner

from two starters for her dam Wholelottashakin

(Scat Daddy), who produced an Arrogate

(Unbridled’s Song) colt this year and a Union

Rags (Dixie Union) filly in 2020. Bodemeister

stands at the Jockey Club Of Turkey’s farm for

€12,500 (approx. AUD$19,585).

Capitalist - Capitalist (Written Tycoon)

became the first freshman sire to reach two

stakes winners for the season after Tycoon

Humma (2 f ex Humma Mumma by Bel

Esprit) came with a powerful finish to claim

the Very Special Kids Plate (Listed, 1000m)

at Flemington on Saturday. Trained by John

McArdle, Tycoon Humma was a $240,000

purchase for Redgum Racing from the Inglis

Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale in 2020. She

is a half-sister to Group 3 winner and Saturday’s

Bob Hoystead Handicap (Listed, 1000m) third

Humma Humma (Denman) and has a yearling

half-sister by Zoustar (Northern Meteor), who

will go through the ring as Lot 87 during today’s

opening session of the Premier auction. Tycoon

Humma defeated the Godolphin-raced Kallos

(Medaglia D'Oro) by a head, with Wanaroo

(Wandjina) a further length and a half back

in third. Capitalist, who stood last season at

Newgate Farm for $44,000, tops the first season

sire charts from Shalaa (Invincible Spirit) and

barnmate Flying Artie (Artie Schiller). He is

also the sire of Inglis Millennium (RL, 1100m)

winner and Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1,

1200m) favourite Profiteer.

Constitution - Florida Derby (Gr 1, 9f)

winner Constitution (Tapit) sired his 16th

individual stakes winner when his son Annex

(3 c ex You Make Me Sing by Unbridled’s Song)

made it two wins from as many starts with a

victory in the Palm Tree Stakes (Listed, 8.5f) at

Gulfstream on Saturday. Trained by Bill Mott,

the colt followed up his debut win at the same

track when beating Scarlett Sky (Sky Mesa) by

a head. Chess’s Dream (Jess’s Dream) was a

length and three-quarters further behind in

third. Bred in Kentucky by William Harrigan

and Mike Pietrangelo, Annex was a private

purchase after he failed to meet his reserve

when consigned by Lane's End to the 2019

Foxwedge WOODSIDE PARK STUD

Page 26: Impossible to ignore his Impeccable pedigree

Keeneland September Yearling Sale. He is the

third foal and the only winner from three to

race out of You Make Me Sing (Unbridled’s

Song), who produced an Honor Code (A.P.

Indy) colt in 2019 and an Honor Code filly in

2020. She was bred to Mitole (Eskendereya) for

2021. Constitution stands at WinStar Farm in

Kentucky for $85,000 (approx. AUD$110,315).

Dubawi - Naval Crown (3 c ex Come Alive

by Dansili) looks destined for better things

after running out a commanding winner

of the Meydan Classic (Listed, 1600m) on

Thursday night, providing Darley’s super sire

Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) with his 197th

individual stakes winner in the process. Sent

into an immediate lead by Mikael Barzalona,

the Charlie Appleby-trained colt never saw

another rival as he cruised home under a hands

a heels ride, crossing the line a length and three

quarters in front of his better fancied stablemate

Master Of The Seas (Dubawi). Yurman (Asiatic

Boy) was another eight lengths away in third.

The winner caught the eye of the northern

hemisphere bookmakers who made him a

25-1 chance for Newmarket’s 2,000 Guineas

(Gr 1, 1m). Naval Crown is the first foal out of

the Listed winning Dansili (Danehill) mare

Come Alive and is from the further family of last

year’s Australian Oaks (Gr 1, 2400m) winner

Colette (Hallowed Crown). Dubawi once again

stands at Dalham Hall Stud for a fee of £250,000

(approx. AUD$444,300) this year.

Fastnet Rock - Chris Waller has unearthed

another talented juvenile in his armoury thanks

to O’President (2 c ex O'Marilyn by O'Reilly),

who built on the promise of his four-length

win at Canterbury last month when taking out

the Skyline Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) at Randwick

on Saturday. The victory provided Coolmore

stalwart Fastnet Rock (Danehill) with his 170th

individual stakes winner, while the stallion

enjoyed a quinella as the Team Hawkes-trained

Hilal finished a length a quarter adrift in second.

Capitvant (Capitalist) was the same margin away

in third. A $520,000 purchase from the Inglis

Australian Easter Sale for James Bester Bloodstock

from the Kia Ora Stud draft, O’President is the

second winner from Group 1-winning juvenile

O’Marilyn (O’Reilly). O’Marilyn is herself a half-

sister to top-tier winners Headturner (Anabaa)

and Anacheeva (Anabaa) as well as Group 2

winner Kroner (Viking Ruler), being from the blue

hen Monroe Magic (Zabeel).

Ghostzapper - Fearless (5 g ex And Why

Not by Street Cry) maintained his unblemished

record at Gulfstream Park when landing the

Gulfstream Park Mile Stakes (Gr 2, 1m) on

Saturday to provide Ghostzapper (Awesome

Again) with his 82nd individual stakes winner.

The five-year-old gelding, who was having

his first start in eight months, made it three

from three at the Florida track when defeating

Avant Garde (Tonalist) by three-quarters of a

length. Performer (Speightstown) was another

two lengths back in third. A half brother to the

stakes winner Just Whistle (Pioneerof The Nile),

Fearless was offered at the 2020 Fasig-Tipton

July Horses of Racing Age Sale but went unsold

for $120,000. He is the second stakes winner

of the three offspring of And Why Not (Street

Cry) to race to date. Ghostzapper stands at Hill

'N Dale Farms in Kentucky $85,000 (approx.

AUD$110,300).

Goldencents - Phantom Currency (5 g

ex Phantom Rising by Mr Greeley) provided

Goldencents (Into Mischief) with his tenth

individual stakes winner when landing

Gulfstream’s Mac Diarmida Stakes (Gr 2, 11f)

on Saturday. The Brian Lynch-trained five-year-

old defeated favourite Tide Of The Sea (English

Channel) by three-quarters of a length, with

Moon Over Miami (Malibu Moon) another half

a length back in third. The win was a fifth in 13

starts for Phantom Currency, who two starts

previously had finished down the field in the

Clark Stakes (Gr 1, 9f) at Churchill Downs. Bred

in Kentucky by Sally Thomas and New Dawn

Stable, Phantom Currency became the first

stakes winner for the mare Phantom Rising (Mr.

Greeley), who has three winners from her five

foals to race. Goldencents, the sire of multiple

Grade 2 winner By My Standards, stands at

Spendthrift’s US base for $15,000 (approx.

AUD$19,500).

Iffraaj - Forest Of Dean (5 g ex Forest

Crown by Royal Applause) reversed the form

with his old rival Felix (Lope De Vega) to take

out the Winter Derby (Gr 3, 1m 2f) at Lingfield

on Saturday, handing Iffraaj (Zafonic) his 75th

individual stakes winner. The John Gosden-

trained Forest Of Dean had finished behind

Felix in his two outings since returning from

a long absence this winter, including when

running third in the Winter Derby Trial (Listed,

1m 2f) over the same course and distance three

weeks ago. However, he stepped forward from

that run again under a canny tactical ride by

Rab Havlin, who stole a march on his four rivals

entering the straight and was never in danger

thereafter. Felix ran second, beaten three-quarters

of a length, while the progressive Father Of Jazz

(Kingman), who returned the 6-4 favourite, was

another length back in third. Now the winner of

five of his 13 starts, Forest Of Dean is the fourth

foal out of the winning mare Forest Crown (Royal

Applause), who herself is a half-sister to Racing

Post Trophy (Gr 1, 1m) winner Crowded House

(Rainbow Quest). Iffraaj had earlier sired his

74th individual stakes winner when Western

Empire secured the Lex Piper Stakes (Listed,

1600m) at Ascot. The Grant and Alana Williams-

trained three-year-old ran fourth in the Western

Australian Guineas (Gr 2, 1600m) in November,

while he had previously been Listed-placed on

three further occasions, but he secured his day in

the sun with a resounding five and a half-length

win over Flash Ducati (Blackfriars). Castillio Del

Lago (Alfred Nobel) was a further neck back in

third.

Manhattan Rain - Manhattan Rain (Encosta

De Lago) sired his 16th individual stakes winner

on Saturday when Hail Manhattan (4 g Beggin

by Benicio) took out the Tattersall's Member's

Cup (Listed, 1600m) at the Sunshine Coast.

The Peter and Will Hulbert-trained winner

finished three-quarters of a length to the good

of David Vandyke’s Dissolution (Snitzel), with

Sir Barnabus (Rothesay) a further neck back

in third. Hail Manhattan was winning for the

sixth time in 18 starts, albeit for the first time in

black-type company, and he has now won all

three outings in February.

Moshe - Former Sun Stud resident Moshe

(Bel Esprit) sired his second stakes winner

as Mosh Music (6 m ex Dirt Music by Jeune)

stamped her credentials for the Adelaide Cup

(Gr 2, 3200m) on Monday by taking out the Roy

Higgins Quality (Listed, 2600m) at Flemington

on Saturday. Trained by Archie Alexander, Mosh

Music bounced back from a disappointing last-

start seventh in the Moonee Valley Night Cup

(Listed, 2500m) - in which she pulled a shoe -

to beat Sin To Win (Sir Percy) by a length and a

quarter, with another three-quarters of a length

to Stars Of Carrum (Fiorente) in third place.

"We saw the nominations for this race and they

didn't look overly strong, but even though it

wasn't in our plan - we were supposed to go

(direct) to the Adelaide Cup - we took a little

diversion and we'll be going to the Adelaide

Cup now,” Alexander said. Winning jockey Mark

Zahra, who will retain the ride at Morphettville,

added: “I reckon she'll stay. In the run today

I barely touched the bridle the whole way.

She was so relaxed and when I needed her to

quicken, she did.” Moshe, a brother to Black

Caviar, was exported to Indonesia in 2019.

Sea The Stars - Sea The Stars (Cape Cross)

registered his 74th individual stakes winner

courtesy of a victory by his son Star Safari (5 g

ex Intimhir by Muhtathir) in Meydan’s Dubai

Millennium Stakes (Gr 3, 2000m) on Thursday.

The Charlie Appleby-trained gelding was

winning for the fourth time in seven starts as

he beat Bedouin’s Story (Farhh) by a length

and a quarter. Halimi (Teofilo) was a further

length back in third. Star Safari is the first foal

out of French winner Intimhir (Muhtathir),

who herself is out of a winning sister to German

Derby (Gr 1, 2400m) winners Schiaparelli

(Monsun) and Samum (Monsun). Sea The Stars

stands at Gilltown Stud in Ireland for a fee of

€150,000 (approx. AUD$230,770).

Snitzel - Arrowfield Stud stallion Snitzel

(Redoute’s Choice) recorded a new stakes

double across the Tasman on Saturday, with

Sword Of State (2 c ex In the Vanguard by

Encosta De Lago) becoming his 108th individual

stakes winner when producing a commanding

performance to take out the Waikato Stud

Slipper (Gr 3, 1200m). The result followed the

win of Four Moves Ahead in the Sweet Embrace

Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m) at Randwick, who was the

107th individual stakes winner for the stallion.

Third in the Eclipse Stakes (Gr 3, 1200m)

second time out on New Year’s Day, the Jamie

Richards-trained Sword Of State produced a

clear career best when downing stablemate and

Karaka 2YO Million (RL, 1200m) winner On The

Bubbles (Brazen Beau) by six and a half lengths

on Saturday. Dragon Biscuit (Choisir) was a

further half a length away in third.

Street Cry - The front running Volcanic

Sky (6 g ex Short Skirt by Diktat) did just

enough under Frankie Dettori to land the

Nad Al Sheba Trophy (Gr 3, 2800m) at

Meydan on Thursday and become the 132nd

individual stakes winner for the late Street

Cry (Machiavellian). Now the winner of four

of his 19 starts, Volcanic Sky clung on from the

fast finishing Global Heat (Toronado) to score

by a short head. Brilliant Light (Sea The Stars)

made it a 1-2-3 for Saeed bin Suroor, finishing

a length and a quarter behind the winner in

third. Volcanic Sky is one of five winners out

of Epsom Oaks (Gr 1, 1m 4f ) third Short Skirt

(Diktat), who herself was successful in Group

3 company twice. Street Cry soon moved his

tally to 133 when Zainhom (7 g ex Kaseema

by Storm Cat) overcame a seemingly

disadvantageous draw in stall 14 to strike in

the Meydan Challenge (Listed, 1400m). The

Shadwell homebred was winning for just the

third time in 32 starts.

Super Easy - Super Easy (Darci Brahma)

sired his sixth individual stakes winner on

Saturday when Bonny Lass maintained her

unbeaten record to take out the Matamata

Breeders’ Stakes (Gr 2, 1200m). A comfortable

debut victory at the same track back in January

saw the Graham Richardson and Rogan Norvall-

trained youngster installed a warm $2.10

favourite for the race and she didn’t disappoint

under a heady ride by Craig Grylls, who brought

up a winning treble on the day with the success.

The fast-finishing Fonsalette (Belardo) grabbed

second, beaten three-quarters of a length,

with Beldarra (Hinchinbrook) a further neck

back in third. “She is just so professional and

she is tough,” Richardson said. “She actually

lost her back legs at the start, so to pick herself

up and get into the position she did was quite

remarkable. When she was in front, I was

looking for Lance O’Sullivan’s filly (Novashow)

as I thought she was the horse to beat. I was just

hoping we had enough to hold them all out and

thankfully we did.”

Tavistock - Hot favourite Solaia (Toronado)

could only muster second in Saturday’s Ascot

1,000 Guineas (Listed, 1800m) as Brave Angel

(3 f ex Svita by Success Express) claimed top

honours to provide late Cambridge Stud stallion

Tavistock (Montjeu) with his 27th individual

stakes winner. Solaia was sent off the $1.60

market leader having won the Challenge Stakes

(Listed, 1500m) on February 13, but it was $21

chance Brave Angel who posted a career best for

trainer Simon Miller and jockey Peter Knuckey,

turning around a four-length deficit with Solaia

having run sixth in the Challenge herself. She

had earlier finished third in the Champion

Fillies Stakes (Gr 3, 1600m) on November 14.

Pure Devotion (So You Think) finished a further

length adrift in third, leading home a 3-4-5 for

Grant and Alana Williams. Tavistock died in

December 2019 having suffered complications

from an injury he had earlier sustained in a

field and he is best known as the sire of Group 1

winners Volkstok’n’barrell and Werther.

The United States - The United States

(Galileo), a Group 1-winning brother to the

high-class fillies Hermosa and Hydrangea,

got his stud career off to the dream start on

Saturday when Drakenstein Stud's homebred

Sheela (2 f ex Trip To India by Trippi) made a

winning debut in the Storm Bird Stakes (Listed,

1000m) at Turffontein in South Africa. The filly

is out of Trip To India (Trippi) hailing from the

family of European Group 1 winners such as

Continent (Lake Coniston) and Zambezi Sun

(Dansili). The globe-trotter began his racing

career with Aidan O'Brien in Ireland before he

transferred to the stable of Robert Hickmott to

race for Nick and Lloyd Williams. He added his

name to Galileo's 89 Group/Grade 1 winners

when landing the 2016 running of the Ranvet

Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m).

Zebedee - Progressive sprinter Lord

Riddiford (6 g ex Beacon Of Hope by Barathea)

took his form to new heights with a gutsy

success in the Hever Sprint Stakes (Listed,

5f) at Lingfield on Saturday, becoming the

12th individual stakes winner for late Tally Ho

Stud resident Zebedee (Invincible Spirit). In a

strongly-run affair, Lord Riddiford stalked the

pace-setting Ornate (Bahamian Bounty) before

pouncing in the straight. He fended off the

sustained late challenge of the favourite Moss

Gill (No Nay Never) by a neck. Blue De Vega

(Lope De Vega) was a further three-quarters of

a length adrift in third. Lord Riddiford has now

won nine of his 34 starts for prize-money of

£134,742 (approx. AUD$243,500).
