Sires With Winners - Tuesday July 11

With wet weather in Sydney playing havoc with the trial schedule last week there was a big turnout for Canterbury trials on Monday with a key Everest runner in cruise control and several under the radar 3YO’s showing spring potential.

Te Akau trainer Mark Walker made history at Ballarat on Sunday with an unprecedented trifecta in the A$400,000 Ecycle Solutions Grand National Steeplechase (4500m).

Fourth in the Arc de Triomphe and a brilliant winner of the Group I VRC Turnbull Stakes at 2000m, there have been few classier winners of the Melbourne Cup than Gold Trip (Fr) and his very first foal has been born this spring.

He cost 2.4million guineas as a yearling and is one of the most eye-catching horses you would ever see, so of course it’s going to be a big story in global bloodstock news when he wins his first G1!

Here is the full list of 23 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

The second evening of the Arqana August Sale was highlighted by demand for Wootton Bassett , who is currently at Coolmore Australia, with the same format as the day before featuring strong demand with a total of 85% of the 72 yearlings offered during the evening selling for an excellent average of €246,475, generating a turnover of €15,035,000.

It was a chilly morning at Widden Victoria last Friday but the stallion talent was hot with Southport Tycoon making his debut in the very same parade ring in which his sire Written Tycoon started his stud career back in 2007.

War Decree’s daughter Val Di Zoldo will be given opportunities this preparation to lock in the only missing credit on her CV.

The Arqana Deauville August Yearling Sale concluded on Monday with the half-sister to last year’s sale-topper shattering all previous records when fetching €3million to the bid of Amo Racing.

Here is the full list of 57 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.
