Two Sunday Winners for Santos

Tara Madgwick - Monday May 29

Highview Stud's new recruit Santos sired a double on Sunday which took his tally of Individual first-crop winners to four, headed by Group One winner Ulanova.

Santos gelding Sandual won the bet365 Maiden Plate (1400m) at Horsham in emphatic fashion for Stawell trainer Andrew Bobbin, defeating his stablemate Sisu by six and a half lengths.

Sandual was purchased by his trainer for A$40,000 as a yearling. He is the first foal out of the unplaced Dualist, herself a half-sister to Group One placegetter Fundamentalist.

The stallion’s second winner of the afternoon came courtesy of Victory Win's triumph in the Landsborough Hotel QTIS Two-Year-Old Colts and Geldings Maiden Plate (1000m) at the Sunshine Coast.

Victory Win scored in similarly impressive style, defeating What A Weekend by six and a quarter lengths for trainer Kacy Fogden.
