First Australian Winner for Reliable Man

Tara Madgwick - Monday August 28
Dashing grey entire Reliable Man (GB) made a lasting impression when he powered to victory in the 2013 Group I ATC Queen Elizabeth Stakes and sired his first Australian winner at Wangaratta on Monday when Sully saluted as a short priced favourite.

Reliable ManPrepared by Natalie Young and Trent Busuttin, Sully was second on debut at Ballarat on June 4 and then chased home boom colt Royal Symphony for third at Flemington in June 24.

Freshened up for this 1400 metre maiden, Sully surged home from back in the field to win by a length and a half.

A $36,000 NZB Select Sale purchase from the draft of Wentwood Grange for BD Racing, Sully is a half-brother to stakes-placed Deedee Panache and is the third winner for Casual Lies (USA) mare Lady Winifred.

Sully is the first Australian winner for Reliable Man (GB), who is also the sire of Group I placed filly Belle du Nord from his first crop of NZ bred foals that are now three.

Reliable Man stands at Westbury Stud at a fee of $17,500.
