First HK Win for Record Priced Rubick

Tara Madgwick - Monday November 8

A talented Group II placed three year-old in Australia when racing as Jet Propulsion, the now gelded Rubick four year-old Master Delight scored his first win in Hong Kong at Sha Tin on Sunday.

Third and fourth at his first two runs for new trainer John Size, Master Delight appreciated a step up to 1600m and finished hard with a well timed run under Joao Moreira to score a three-quarter length win as favourite.
 



A $900,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Kitchwin Hills draft for T Magnier / Ciaron Maher Bloodstock, Master Delight is the most expensive yearling by his sire Rubick.

Jet Propulsion was a $900,000 Inglis Easter yearling.

He is a half-brother to not only $5.8million earning Group I winner Pierata abut also Group III winner Ashokan and is the sixth winner from Group III winning Flying Spur mare November Flight, who died last year.

Best known as the sire of Everest hero Yes Yes Yes, Rubick moved to Swettenham Stud this year and stands at a fee $27,500.

Fangirl Wins $1million Channel 7 Stakes
It doesn’t carry Black Type, but the $1million ATC Channel 7 Stakes (1600m) is a G1 race in everything but name and for the second year in a row it was won by the fabulous Fangirl, who continued her love affair with the Randwick mile.
First G1 Winner For Calyx As Sepals Wins Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes
With most of the hype heading into this year’s running of the $1m Group 1 MRC Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes (1400m) surrounding the four-year-olds, the Cliff Brown trained Sepals justified that hype, highlighting his class to come out on top with a brilliant win.
Apocalyptic Dazzles in G2 Tea Rose Victory

First Australian SW For Ghaiyyath - Yum Wins Jim Moloney Stakes
It was clear the betting public weren’t interested, but connections felt she was a good chance despite the five weeks between runs, as John McArdle’s Yum charged late to win the Listed MRC Jim Moloney Stakes (1400m), becoming the first Australian stakes winner for Darley’s Ghaiyyath (IRE).
Naturalism Victory Gives Half Yours Caulfield Cup Ballot Exemption
With just 51kgs on his back in the upcoming $5m Group 1 MRC Caulfield Cup (2400m), and now exempt from the ballot, the dominant victory of Tony and Calvin McEvoy's Half Yours in Saturday’s Group 3 MRC Naturalism Stakes (2000m) suggests the 5yo son of St Jean will be very hard to beat.
Tajana Wins G3 Sunline Vase
Many pre-race pundits had labelled Saturday’s Ellerslie’s feature, the Gr.3 Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Sunline Vase (1400m) as a two-horse contest between Lollapalooza and Tajana, the two hottest three-year-old fillies of spring racing to date.
Busy Weekend Looms for Te Akau - MM Sale-Topper to Debut
