Shamus Award Mare Quintessa Cracks $1million in Prizemoney

Karaka graduate Quintessa (NZ) (Shamus Award) became a millionaire and a dual Group One winner with a stunning last-to-first performance in the $400,000 Group One Proisir Plate (1400m) at Ellerslie on Saturday.

G1 Shamus Award - Quintessa Wins Proisir Plate

Five Straight and a Stakes Victory for Pop Award

There is a myriad of Snitzel sons at stud this spring, but for value and proven credentials it’s impossible to go past Rosemont Stud’s Cox Plate hero Shamus Award, who posted his first stakes-winner of the new season when exciting mare Pop Award landed the Listed MRC Regal Roller Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield on Saturday.

The Snitzel Legacy

A four time Champion Australian Sire in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, Snitzel was an extremely fertile sire that covered 3043 mares in 19 seasons at stud in Australia and attracted 100 plus books in every year since 2010, so his passing will cast shockwaves through the breeding industry.

New HK Stakes-Winner Shamus Award

John Size and Zac Purton combined to win the Group III The Queen Mother Memorial Cup (2400m) at Sha Tin on Sunday with up and coming stayer Bundle Award.
