Exciting Aussie 3YO Awarded Champion HK Griffin
The title of Champion HK Griffin is one not bestowed lightly on a talented three year-old with two of the past three winners being Champion Sprinters Ka Ying Rising (NZ) and Lucky Sweynesse (NZ) and the exciting winner for 2024/2025 was announced last night at the final meeting of the season at Happy Valley.
El Castello Wins G3 Gloaming -First SW Castelvecchio
Anthony Cummings is never frightened to set the bar high for a promising horse and when Castelvecchio three year-old El Castello broke his maiden at Warwick Farm at the start of September his trainer was talking G1 Spring Champion Stakes and that goal is well and truly on track.
Smart Winner for Hanseatic
Rosemont Stud’s Hanseatic added a fourth winner to his tally on Thursday at Kembla when the John Thompson trained gelding Sea Admiral opened his account.
Farnan Filly Impresses at Kembla
Selected as a foundation sire for Kia Ora Stud, Golden Slipper winner Farnan has provided a dream start for the Hunter Valley farm with a slew of smart winners from his first crop this season including Commanding Belle, who became his 11th winner on Thursday.
Spring Stakes Goals for El Castello
Anthony Cummings is never frightened to set the bar high for a promising horse and his Castelvecchio three year-old El Castello kicked his spring campaign off with a maiden win at Warwick Farm on Wednesday that is likely to pave the way for a return to stakes class.
Castelvecchio Colt Wins G1 Spring Champion Stakes
El Castello’s sire Castelvecchio won the Group I ATC Champagne Stakes at two and was then second in both the ATC Spring Champion Stakes and Cox Plate before returning in the autumn to win the Group I ATC Rosehill Guineas, so it only seems fitting that his first Group I winner should arrive in a race like the Spring Champion Stakes (2000m).
No Rush with Savaglee
Star colt Savaglee is likely to be a notable absentee from all spring feature events.
