Cambridge trainer Stephen Marsh won the Gr.3 Jennian Homes Wellington Stakes (1600m) for the fifth time at Otaki on Sunday with emerging talent Ammirati, but this was a win unlike any other.

As the fastest ever 2yo over the Randwick 1000m when winning the Inglis Nursey at his only ever start, Fastnet Rock’s son Acrobat has proven extremely popular at stud, and on Sunday at the Sunshine Coast, the Paul Shailer trained Acrodance became his first winner.
