Sires With Winners - Sunday November 9

Just when you thought the Victorian Spring Carnival was over the Melbourne Racing Club are serving up another day of stakes racing with an astonishing seven Black Type races on the card, plus the first running of the $400,000 MRC Whispering Angel Melbourne Classic (2000m) for 3YOs.  

Ascot has played host to a remarkable crop of three year olds this season and another potential superstar was unveiled yesterday.

While it may have taken until his fifth start to break his maiden, 3yo Pierata colt Kilbrannan has pedigree on his side and with the step up to 1300m, the Gary Portelli trained colt impressed at Newcastle on Sunday when breaking his maiden for Laurel Oak Bloodstock and partners.

Australian racing history will be made on Saturday if the mighty Overpass can win his third Winterbottom Stakes.

Peachy Keen capped a super-consistent spring campaign with a last-gasp victory in Sunday’s $50,000 Happy Hire Cromwell Cup (2030m).

Aga Khan Studs don’t race a lot of geldings, but one that they do is Calandagan, who has taken giant strides in 2025 to become the Cartier European Horse of the Year and on Sunday he achieved the almost unthinkable with a history making win in the Group I Japan Cup (2400m).

Here is the full list of 2 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

Sporting the famed silks of Te Akau Racing, Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson’s Home Affairs colt Kinnaird started favourite at Otaki on Sunday, fighting all the way to the line to score on debut, becoming the second winner for his Coolmore based sire.

As the fastest ever 2yo over the Randwick 1000m when winning the Inglis Nursey at his only ever start, Fastnet Rock’s son Acrobat has proven extremely popular at stud, and on Sunday at the Sunshine Coast, the Paul Shailer trained Acrodance became his first winner.

Having previously recorded eight black type placed efforts, the Annabel and Rob Archibald trained Kobayashi mare Midnight In Tokyo started favourite in Saturday’s $160,000 Listed BRC Eureka Stud Tattersall's Classic (1200m), pulling clear in impressive fashion to record a thoroughly deserving first stakes victory.
