Spright returns to formAt Rosehill Spright (Hinchinbrook x Dashoff) took her career earnings past $500,000 when coming from last on the home turn to win the Star Kingdom Stakes.

And Cellarman made it four wins from his past five starts when claiming the Doncaster Prelude.

The son of Mossman won't back up in next weekend's Group 1 Doncaster Mile but continues to be a great success story for her connections at Star Thoroughbreds, who bought her for $90,000 from Yallambee Stud's draft at the 2015 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale.
