De Gaulle - New Winner

There were two new Group I winners in Australia last Saturday and while one cost $1.55million, the other was retained to race and would be deemed nowhere near as commercial, proving genetics and fashion might be two different things, but the end result can be the same.

An 11th Group One winner has joined the catalogue for the 2025 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale.

Yarraman Park’s three-strong roster - all proven Group 1-producing sires - continues to go from strength to strength and is once again led by the breed-shaping I Am Invincible complemented by his sire-son Hellbent, and rising stallion Brave Smash.

When you call a filly Simply Astounding there is a level of expectation and the debut win of this blueblood Wootton Bassett filly overnight in Ireland would suggest the name was not bestowed lightly.

Kia Ora Stallions have announced their fees for 2025, with their Golden Slipper winner Farnan headlining the roster at a fee of $77,000.

Supplementary entries for the Chairman’s Sale, Australian Weanling Sale and Australian Broodmare Sale are now finalised and online.

The Lindsay Park training partnership had a great result on Tuesday producing the quinella in the $125,000 VOBIS Gold Strike (1000m) at Warrnambool with Dirty Work filly Mrs Iglesia too good for her stablemate and race favourite Killiana.

Group One performer Town Cryer has been retired from racing following her fourth placed effort behind Val Di Zoldo in the Gr.2 Travis Stakes (2000m) at Te Rapa last Saturday, and she already has a date with champion New Zealand sire Proisir.

There are just two horses in the Warrnambool stables of Mark O'Donnell and whilst one is ten and the other four, they have something in common - both are talented horses who have been given every chance to succeed due to the patience and horsemanship skills of their trainer.

Here is the full list of 22 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.
