A $575,000 Inglis Easter purchase from Newgate Farm for PR Funds, Snitzel gelding Yorskhire has been a work in progress for quite some time, but the five year-old finally translated talent into a Black Type victory when taking out the $250,000 Group III ATC Festival Stakes (1500m) at Rosehill.
Stepping up to the 2000m for the first time off the back of his dominant victory on Melbourne Cup day in the Listed VRC TAB Trophy (1800m), Henry Dwyer’s progressive 3yo Ghaiyyath gelding Different Gravy was just as classy on Saturday, pulling clear to win the inaugural running of the $400,000 MRC Melbourne Classic.
