Hellbent Again! 12th Winner and First in NZ

Tara Madgwick - Thursday July 21

Yarraman Park’s Hellbent extended his hot winning streak into New Zealand on Thursday with a debut victory at Hastings for promising filly Tantrums.

Trained by Simon and Katrina Alexander, Tantrums made light of the heavy 10 conditions to win the 800m scamper by a length.

Tantrums was bred in Australia by Dr Richard McClenahan of Mullaglass Stud and was snapped up for just $15,000 by Stanton Thoroughbreds from the 2021 Inglis Digital March (early) Sale as a yearling.

She is the first foal of Layo Layo, a winning Encosta de Lago daughter of stakes-winner Tantra from the family of $3.7million earning Champion 2YO Filly Away Game.

Dr Richard McClenahan also bred and sold her sire Hellbent as a yearling, so he will no doubt take great satisfaction from breeding a smart winner by the Group I winning  son of I Am Invincible.

The first runner and first winner for her sire in New Zealand, Tantrums is the 12th first crop winner for Hellbent and is his eighth this month!

Hellbent stands at a fee of $22,000 this spring.

Breeding To Win – Crystal Ball – New Season 3YOs to Follow
Analysis of the G1 winning 3YO’s for this season has made us realise how many horses on this list took giant strides from two to three, so we are looking into the crystal ball to find some juveniles we believe could end next season as G1 performers if not G1 winners.

The $150,000 VRC Next Gen Sprinters Series Final (1200m) for two year-olds at Flemington on Saturday drew a competitive field of progressive juveniles and the colt that stood out on type in the yard was the one that got the cash with I Am Invincible colt Jimmy Recard proving too good for race favourite Bacash.

Synthetic track meetings at Ballarat can throw up some misleading form, but a debut winner from the Tony and Calvin McEvoy stable that started in the red and won by nine lengths is probably worth a closer look.
