Better Than Ready - New Winner

Trainers Lance O’Sullivan and Andrew Scott have been putting in the hard yards over the past few weeks as they look to amass their next stable stars and they struck early at the Summer Sale session of the New Zealand National Yearling Sales at Karaka on Thursday.

Widden Stud’s Russian Camelot (IRE) has struck a purple patch with four winners since last Saturday and a maiden winner at Kembla today from the John Sargent stable produced a freaky finish to snatch what seemed a highly unlikely win and he also has a freaky pedigree!

Respected international bloodstock agent John Foote has been attending the National Yearling Sale in New Zealand for over 50 years, and he returned to Karaka for the historic 100th National Yearling Sale this week.

Samantha and Francis Finnegan followed a successful pattern when going to $125,000 to purchase a sharp filly by Written By at the Summer Sale at Karaka on Thursday.

Unbeaten Group One-winning colt Return To Conquer has been retired.

The release of third declarations for the Group I MRC Blue Diamond Stakes next month has Widden Stud’s fairytale colt Unit Five still in the mix after his brilliant win in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic, but next week the focus for Team Widden turns to Inglis Classic.

Valiant Stud have topped the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale twice previously in recent years and Fergal Connolly and his team just might be able to do it again next week!

Here is the full list of 41 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

The Rosehill trials on Thursday morning featured four heats that were won by juveniles and two of those winners were by Ole Kirk, while an unraced Home Affairs filly continues to show potential with her second trial win.

A share in recent Magic Millions The Debut runner-up Say You Will has been snapped up by one of the country's leading racehorse owners when selling today on Magic Millions Digital for $30,000.
