Sires With Winners - Thursday July 29

Should Know Thyself be a new stakes-winner for The Autumn Sun? Paul Messara thought he was after winning the ‘as advertised’ Listed $500,000 The Coast at Gosford on Saturday, but as it turns out he’s not.

Now that the dust has settled from that stellar Inglis Chairman’s Sale last week, we thought it was worth taking a look back at the sale origins of the million dollar mares that were purchased as yearlings.

A highlight of this week's Bloodstockauction.com sale is an exciting draft from Arrowfield Stud, a dozen well related yearlings (all unreserved) who would be a stand-out in any stable!

Champion Australian sire Zoustar posted an interesting winner overnight at Longchamp where five year-old mare Mgheera landed the Group III Prix de Saint-Georges (1000m) for Lord Lloyd Webber and Arthur Mitchell of Yarraman Park.

Gr.1 Blue Diamond (1200m) winner Little Brose will be officially unveiled to the public at Little Avondale Stud’s open day on Thursday afternoon.

There were plenty of interesting stories to come out of last week’s Inglis Chairman’s Sale, but one of the most fascinating was the blurring of the line between racehorse trainer and bloodstock agent.

The French classics for three year-olds over a mile were run overnight at Longchamp with Coolmore shuttler Wootton Bassett (GB) having first and third in the colts renewal, while there was a protest in the fillies race that produced victory for an Agha Khan homebred filly by Siyouni.

Here is the full list of 28 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

Five heats for juveniles at the Warwick Farm trials on Tuesday morning included three unraced youngsters by Extreme Choice, Anders and Capitalist, plus we got the first look at the $1.4million Wootton Bassett (GB) colt from Sunlight.

A lightly raced Group II winning son of Capitalist, First Settler has been added to the roster for Yulong this spring at a fee of $11,000.
