Second Winner for Contributer

Tara Madgwick - Sunday May 24

Mapperley Stud stallion Contributer (IRE) was represented by his second individual winner when Jeronimos scored a strong win in a Newcastle Maiden over 1200m for trainer James Cummings.

The two-year-old colt stepped out for the first time at the same venue three weeks ago when finishing third and showed plenty of fortitude to defeat three-year-old Brutality on Saturday.

Out of the stakes-winning Volksraad mare Viana, Jeronimos was bred by Jonny Orr and sold by Mapperley Stud at the 2019 New Zealand Bloodstock National Yearling Sales in Book 1 for $250,000 where he was purchased by Godolphin.

Jeronimos was the most expensive yearling from the first crop of Contributer

He is the highest priced yearling from the first crop of Contributer.

A dual Group One-winning son of High Chaparral, Contributer stands at Mapperley Stud for a fee of $10,000+gst.

His first crop of juveniles have impressed, with the John O’Shea-trained Lion’s Roar winning on debut a fortnight ago and being targeted at Group assignments in spring.

Justify Filly Impresses at Randwick
Talented two year-old Justify (USA) filly Just a Journey cast off maiden status at her second start at Kembla last month and had no trouble carrying winning form to town to score at Randwick on Wednesday.
One to Watch – Randwick
A two year-old Zoustar filly that is a three-quarter sister-in-blood to Group I winner Mizzy and was purchased for a modest $250,000 as a yearling looks to have been well bought after making a winning debut at Randwick on Wednesday.
Another Smart Winner for Kings Legacy
Just days after posting his first stakes-winner when Steel Trap won the Group III SAJC David Coles AM Stakes in Adelaide, King’s Legacy has produced another promising winner.
Queensland Oaks Goal for Ace High Filly

More Success for Maori Chief
A homebred for Go Bloodstock, well bred I Am Invincible gelding Maori Chief has a spring in his step at present and made it back-to-back wins at Randwick when scoring on Wednesday.
Expensive or Value?
Darley certainly didn’t pull any punches when announcing Too Darn Hot (GB) would be returning to Australia this spring at a fee of $275,000, but a close look at the second season sires table shows why this stallion is head and shoulders above his rivals.
Queensland Oaks Potential for Blueblood Dundeel Filly
Dundeel has had a flurry of female stakes-winners this season including Group I SA Derby winner Femminile and Richard Litt is hopeful his filly Ella Hazel can add her name to the tally.
