He might be a half-brother to brilliant juvenile Storm Boy, but exciting classic prospect Shangri La Boy leans more to his sire Pierro in type and temperament producing a classy staying performance at Rosehill on Saturday to win the $500,000 Group III ATC Gloaming Stakes (1800m).

Improving from his fourth in this race last year, the Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young trained Brayden Star (GB) has secured himself a start in next Saturday’s $5m Group 1 MRC Caulfield Cup (2400m) with victory in Saturday’s $400,000 Group 2 MRC Herbert Power Stakes (2400m) at Caulfield.
