Bivouac - New Winner

Yulong purchasing as Ace Stud were active during the first session of the Tattersalls December Mares Sale overnight purchasing three of the top five lots including the session topping half-sister to Sunday’s Japan Cup winner Calandagan for 850,000 guineas.

Here is the full list of 14 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

The 2026 NZB National Yearling Sales (January 25-29) offers buyers the cream of the New Zealand crop and in the weeks leading up to the sale we’ll go looking for pedigrees of interest for a myriad of reasons.

With many of the opinion that Godolphin would provide the winner of this year’s $1m Group 1 ATC Golden Rose (1400m), they were right, but not with the 3yo expected as the Chris Waller trained Bivouac colt Beiwacht was simply sensational in his track record breaking victory.

Last Saturday provided Australian racing fans with a bewildering array of 15 Black Type events spread across four states, so with a newly minted Group I winner and a couple of other horses we see as having G1 potential, a closer look at the pedigrees got me thinking.

CALIYZA was the star turn on the opening day of the Tattersalls December Mares Sale when realising 850,000 guineas to Ace Stud, one of five lots to realise 600,000 guineas or more. The first Sceptre Session was welcomed by a packed sales ring and saw 20 lots sell for 8,950,000 guineas at an average of 447,500 guineas.

Beiwacht upstaged his more fancied rivals to win the $1million Group I ATC Golden Rose last Saturday in course record breaking style to become the hottest colt in Australia giving us the opportunity to chat to a legend that has been very much involved in his story so far.

TBA issued a statement on Monday regarding the Black Type debacle with all the usual rhetoric that leads nowhere.

Smart filly Oratia Beauty went close to a major black-type credit last time out at Ellerslie and will get the opportunity to take care of unfinished business on the course at the next time of asking.
