Kia Ora Stud’s promising young sire Captivant is off the mark with his first winner after Vantorix made a winning debut at Taree on Sunday beating older horses.

Hellbent is enjoying a fabulous spring with seasonal progeny earnings topping $7million and 45 Australian winners including stakes-winners Magic Time, Savvy Hallie and Boston Rocks, plus million dollar race winners Vivy Air and Revengeance with his good form extending to Hong Kong where he sired a double on Sunday with a pair of lightly raced 4YO’s on the up.
