The duo earlier went to an even $1
million for a Baramul Stud-bred colt by the same pensioned Arrowfield
Stud sire, a day after landing a $1.1 million son of Not A Single Doubt from
Torryburn Stud.
So far, Fung and Phoenix have bought six out of the seven colts offered
by Not A Single Doubt at this sale for a total of $5.19 million.
The attraction to Not A Single Doubt is more than understandable
given their success with Group 2-winning sprinter Dubious and, more
recently, Golden Slipper (Gr 1, 1200m) hero Farnan, as well as another
powerful colt in Anders.
On their highest-priced acquisition to date, Aquis Farm managing
director Shane McGrath said: “They are a limited edition, the Not A Single
Doubt colts, and he (the $1.8 million colt) comes off a great nursery and is
out of a very good racemare.”
After McGrath successfully bid on Baramul Stud’s Lot 529 from a
corner table at the auditorium, bidding for the $1.8 million colt, who was
catalogued as Lot 612, was left to Abdulaziz Salman, who was calling the
shots online from Dubai.
“Unfortunately, he (Abdulaziz Salman) can't be here at the sale.
Everyone in the industry likes to be part of the atmosphere and likes being
part of the process,” McGrath said.
“We’ve been fortunate that he's allowed the team to collect the list of horses.
We just thought on a horse like this, it was nice for him to do the bidding.
“Each horse we have discussed, we have talked through what we
wanted to spend on them.”
Emirates Park general manager Bryan Carlson put the colt on the
market from the opening $600,000 bid, noting the pre-sale interest had
him confident of a big result.
“He was a lovely colt. Even back at the farm, he's been very popular, I
didn't think he was going to make that much, but I knew he was going to
make over a million,” Carlson said.

“He's been very popular and has been
out of his box the whole time. It’s a fantastic result. He's always been a
relaxed, well-moving colt. He does tick every box.”
One More Honey has a Zoustar (Northern Meteor) colt at foot and is
in foal to Snitzel (Redoute’s Choice).
The $1 million lot from Gerry Harvey’s Baramul Stud also fitted “all the
cliches”, according to McGrath.
“He’s a lovely, fast, sharp two-year-old and we hope he is back here
next year,” he said.
“He fits our profile of what we are trying to do. We've got great partners
in Phoenix who are willing to back our judgment. The proof will be in the
pudding on the racetrack.”
Regarding Not A Single Doubt, who was pensioned in January 2020
and has 44 live foals in his second-last crop being offered to the market,
McGrath added: “He leaves a great type, he's a phenomenal sire. There are
only a handful of colts there, and we are keen to secure them.
“The market has shown there is a huge appetite for the stallion, and
he's a huge loss.”
The colt is the second foal out of the winning Medaglia D’Oro (El Prado)
mare Medaglia Valore, while his second dam is the Magic Millions 2YO
Classic (RL, 1200m) and Group 2 winner Military Rose (General Nediym).
Built in the mould of his sire, a powerful sprinting type, McGrath says
there is no reason to stray from a proven formula.
“We have had a lot of success in recent times from purchases out of
the Magic Millions sale ring and it’s nice to give a bit of money back to
Gerry (Harvey, owner of Magic Millions and Baramul Stud). God knows
he needs it,” he joked.
Later, the partners also went to $750,000 for a last-crop son of Redoute’s
Choice (Danehill) from the stakes-placed winner Mount Zero (Northern
Meteor), making him a three-quarter brother to this season’s talented juvenile
Mura Mura (Not A Single Doubt). He was catalogued as Lot 576.
The Stonestreet Stables-owned, and Peter and Paul Snowden-trained,
Mura Mura runs in tomorrow’s
Magic Millions 2YO Classic.
Magic Millions managing
director Barry Bowditch, who
like most industry participants
was beaming over the continued
strength experienced at the Gold
Coast this week, recognised
Fung and Phoenix’s continued
investment in the Australian
industry.
“They have had a huge fill-up out of this sale. When you think about
it, they bought Dubious, three years ago and two years ago they’ve taken
home Farnan, Anders and Prague, so It works, doesn’t it?” Bowditch said.
“They have bought some huge horses out of this sale which have been
great on the racetrack, but they have also sold them well to stud. The
recipe obviously works.”
At the current rate of trade, Magic Millions is on track to break the $200
million barrier and another record sale, a possibility almost unthinkable
only months ago.
There have been eight million-dollar lots across the three sessions so
far at an average of $257,471, up more than $5,000 compared to the same
stage last year.
The $180,000 median is holding steady, but the most stunning feature
of the sale so far is the clearance rate of 88 per cent, a statistic that was
forecast to drop year-on-year.
“The market’s truly set now. It’s buoyant, it’s confident and it’s real.
The vendors are putting them on the market and buyers are having a
proper go at all levels,” Bowditch said.
“When you’re selling a horse well at $80,000; selling a horse well at
$500,000, through to the big numbers, it just gives buyers confidence to
buy at all levels and that’s what Magic Millions is all about.”
Bowditch continued: “This is the best catalogue ever produced by us.
The horses are solid all the way through - there’s not a weak day, there’s
not a strong day.
“Will we have another million-dollar horse? I suspect so and I am
confident that we will, but could I tell you which one right now? I’m not
100 per cent sure.
“I am just thrilled that under the circumstances of getting this sale
through all the restrictions and all the trepidation that the buyers have
shown up here in droves and supported this industry like it deserves to
be supported.”

Loving Gaby’s sister joins Maher-Eustace stable
It took some intense and rapid negotiations but eventually the
sister to dual Group 1-winning mare Loving Gaby (I Am Invincible)
was sold to her trainer Ciaron Maher and Nxt Level Syndication for
$1.2 million.
As the filly’s price stalled at $1.2 million, auctioneer Clint Donovan
attempted to entice another bid from the buying bench but no one
stepped forward, leaving her to be passed in and setting in motion the
quick-fire response from vendor Kia Ora Stud and Maher.
Soon after, it was announced that the filly would join the stable of
Maher and his co-trainer David Eustace.
“It wasn’t straightforward - it was a bit awkward at the end there, but
we’re rapt to be able to get her. She’s very much like her (Loving Gaby) and
maybe a little bit stronger,” Maher said.
“I didn’t have much more left in me, maybe another five ($50,000).
Hopefully she can be as good as her sister.”
Coolmore, who paid $2.25 million for Maastricht (Mastercraftsman)
carrying the million-dollar youngster at the 2019 Inglis Chairman’s Sale,
will remain in the ownership of the filly.
She is the third foal out of the Group 2-placed Maastricht, herself
a half-sister to stakes winners Velocitea (Volksraad) and Weaponry
(Declaration Of War), and was catalogued as Lot 500.
Maher would not rule out the filly being able to reach the racetrack
sooner than her big frame suggests.
“Gaby was very big and raw
and this horse has maybe got a
little bit more quality, a little bit
more strength, and the same
sort of physical. She is quite tall,”
he said.
“Gaby came to hand pretty
early for a big filly and this
horse is well structured. If they
have plenty of ability they can
normally get there earlier than
what you think.”
Kia Ora Stud’s Shane Wright acknowledged that the selling of the
blue-chip filly did not go as smoothly as expected.
“It's hard to speculate what these big horses are going to make. We
thought that was a fair price. We were just testing the market,” Wright said.
“The sale has been so hot this week. It’s been amazing and
congratulations to Magics for putting on such a show.
“Ciaron is the hottest trainer of two-year-olds in the country. She
looks like a genuine two-year-old type.
“By this time next year, hopefully he will have built her own reputation
and hopefully she won't be living off Loving Gaby's reputation any more. I
reckon that will be the case.”
Maastricht had an early November-born Justify (Scat Daddy) colt last
year.
Victorian Alliance strikes againThe numerous colts syndicates attempting to land the next jackpot
stallion prospect again dominated the marketplace and that was the case
with the Rosemont Stud-backed Victorian Alliance.
On Wednesday, the group made its mark with a $1 million Zoustar colt
and it did not stop yesterday, buying a son of I Am Invincible (Invincible
Spirit) for $950,000 from Coolmore.

The Alliance also signed for another
colt by I Am Invincible for $400,000 from Yarraman Park Stud, as well as
an Edinburgh Park-consigned son of Written Tycoon (Iglesia) for $300,000
on day three.
With the assistance of its retained agents Suman Hedge and the
UK-based David Redvers, the partnership involving some high-profile
Victorian breeders bought the first foal out of the stakes-placed mare
Petition (Foxwedge), herself a daughter of New Zealand Group 1 winner
The Party Stand (Thorn Park).
The colt went through in the closing minutes of the session as Lot 636.
“He was a horse we identified very early at the top of our list of colts to
try and secure for our Victorian Alliance,” Hedge said.
“He’s by a champion stallion, out of a stakes-placed mare, a daughter
of a Group 1 winner and he’s a lovely physical.
“He looks like an early-running horse and that’s the profile that us and
a lot of the other colt buyers here are looking for.”
The extreme demand is being fuelled by competition for colts who
could be sold for over $40 million as stallion prospects should they achieve
the desired level of racetrack performance.
“It is a very crowded market for colts. I think there’s six or seven
different syndicates trying to secure them and they’re all looking for
similar qualities in those
horses,” Hedge said.
“Everybody’s landing on
them and everyone’s got money.
It’s the start of the year and it's a
pretty buoyant sale here, so you
have to be very aggressive on
the ones that you want and put
yourself out there if you want to
get them.
“Fortunately, we have been
able to pick up a couple of
other horses which were under
our projected budget and that
probably smoothed over a couple of our other aggressive purchases out of
the total that we’ve been able to get.”
The prominent James Harron Bloodstock colts syndicate also
continued its haul for 2021 yesterday by buying a Zoustar colt for $800,000.
Offered by Widden Stud as Lot 483, he is out of the unraced Lone
(Sepoy), a half-sister to stakes winners Atmospherical (Northern Meteor),
Gai’s Choice (General Nediym) and Peron (Husson).
Harron also outlaid $800,000 for the Snitzel three-quarter sister to
sprinting colt Anders and a sister to the stakes-placed Battleground. She
was sold by Arrowfield Stud as Lot 503.
Almanzor colt with Russian Camelot similarities makes $800,000
Meanwhile, a Cox Plate (Gr 1, 2040m) owner-trainer combination
will reunite after a colt by Cambridge Stud’s European champion shuttler
Almanzor (Wootton Bassett), the surprise-packet of the first season sires,
sold for $800,000.
Danny O’Brien, who compared the colt on type to that of Russian
Camelot (Camelot) as a yearling and prepared Cox Plate winner Shamus
Award (Snitzel) for Sean Buckley, will train the horse after Baystone Farm’s
Dean Harvey identified and signed for him.
Harvey confirmed that Ultra Thoroughbreds’ Buckley would have
O’Brien take care of the horse during his racing career.
“He was faultless on type; Alamanzor was a champion racehorse of
Europe and the types I have seen by him this week have been fantastic,”
Harvey said.
“I think they are going to be versatile horses and he was one of the
colts of the sale. We had to chase hard to buy him but eventually we won
out.
“There was plenty of competition on him and that’s what happens
with nice horses - they sell like that.”
Bred by Murray and Marg Hardy along with Mills Reef Winery founder
Paddy Preston under their Sunlight Trust banner, the colt is the third foal out
of the VRC Sires’ Produce Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m) runner-up Lazumba (Sebring).
She has a Written Tycoon colt at foot and is back in foal to the same sire. The
yearling was catalogued as Lot 470.

Inglis Classic to proceed as live auction
Next month’s Inglis Classic Yearling Sale will
proceed as a live auction at Riverside Stables
from February 7-9. The sale will be conducted
with Inglis’ CovidSafe plan in place, which
allows for a range of hospitality options, while
the auction house will continue to work with
respective state government authorities to
further develop protocols that will allow for
the attendance of interstate participants. “The
permit system now in place for travel to Victoria
is a very positive development for those looking
to participate in the sale,” Inglis managing
director Mark Webster said. “We are working
with all the relevant authorities to ensure that
as many people as practicable can attend the
sale in a safe and responsible manner, and we
will continue to liaise with buyers through the
coming weeks. It is an excellent catalogue of
horses for what year after year proves itself to
be the best-value yearling sale on the calendar,
and we are excited to get the 2021 Inglis Yearling
Sales Series up and going with Classic on
February 7-9.” The 2021 Classic Yearling Sale,
for which 803 yearlings have been catalogued,
includes the progeny of 108 different stallions
offered by 76 individual vendors. Prospective
purchasers are encouraged to consider on-
farm inspections of catalogued yearlings where
practicable. On-site inspections are set to begin
at Riverside on February 2. Click here for the
contact details of vendors at the sale.
First for MauriceFirst season sire Maurice (Screen Hero) took
a long time to register a maiden winner in his
native Japan, only hitting the scoreboard in
mid-July before embarking on a remarkable
run to almost claim first season sire honours
in 2020. All indications suggest the Arrowfield
Stud shuttler may be about to begin a similar
run in Australia, with Balmaurice (2 g ex Bal
Du Siecle by Danehill Dancer) giving the six-
time Group 1 victor a first Australian winner
yesterday. Balmaurice was a significant drifter,
easing from $18 to $31, but the Rex Lipp-
trained gelding was much too good for his rivals
under Ben Thompson, racing clear for a two
and a quarter-length win over equal favourites
Reawaken (Kiss And Make Up) and Archdeacon
(Better Than Ready). Bred and raced by Trevor
and Diana Fraser, Balmaurice is the sixth foal
to race out of Bal Du Siecle (Danehill Dancer),
whose dam Buenos Aires (Rainbow Quest) is
a half-sister to Might And Power (Zabeel). Bal
Du Siecle has an American Pharoah (Pioneerof
The Nile) yearling colt and a So You Think
(High Chaparral) filly foal, while she is in foal to
Encryption (Lonhro). Maurice, who is the 16th
first season sire to have an Australian winner in
2020-21 and sits tenth on the early first season
sires standings by earnings, did not return to
Arrowfield Stud in 2020 due to Covid-19. He is
once again standing at Shadai Stallion Station
in 2021.
Further clearance needed for Love, Availabull to be examined
Connections of Fake Love (I Am Invincible)
and Readily Availabull (Bull Point) face an
anxious wait with the pair having to overcome
further veterinary examinations before being
given the all clear to take their chances in
tomorrow’s Magic Millions 2YO Classic (RL,
1200m). The Ciaron Maher and David Eustace-
trained Fake Love has received treatment
after experiencing slight lameness in the near
foreleg. The John Sargent-trained Readily
Availabull was also showing similar signs of
lameness in the near foreleg after arriving at
the Gold Coast yesterday morning. The duo
will have to undergo another inspection this
morning before stewards make the call on
whether they can run in the Classic. Fake Love,
who won the Debutant Stakes (Listed, 1000m)
at Caulfield first-up in October, is a $15 chance
with TAB fixed odds after drawing barrier 20,
while Readily Availabull, the Magic Millions
Clockwise Classic (1000m) winner at Ballarat,
is a $23 outsider.

TOSEN STARDOM - FIRST YEARLINGS SELLING 2021| 12 |
Edge to ‘lap up pressure’ in Classic
Trent Edmonds believes the traditional high
pressure scenario in tomorrow’s Classic will be
ideal for unbeaten colt Alpine Edge (Better Than
Ready). "The more high pressure event it becomes,
the better it will be for him," Edmonds, who trains
in partnership with his father Toby, said. "He'll
relish a good, strongly-run 1200 metres and should
lap up the pressure." Alpine Edge has impressed
Edmonds with his progress since winning the BJ
McLachlan Stakes (Gr 3, 1200m) at Eagle Farm on
Boxing Day. "He hasn't gone backwards since the
McLachlan win," Edmonds said. "We've left no
stone unturned. It's grand final day and he goes
there in really good shape." Edmonds believes
Alpine Edge's adaptable racing pattern is another
factor in his favour. "He's a versatile galloper. We
rode him forward in the Phelan Ready then rode
him off the speed in the McLachlan," he added. "I
really love the way he took that run up on the fence
the other day and he really attacked the line hard.
He'll come into barrier six on Saturday, which is a
fantastic gate for him."
First-time visor for Hipstar Kelly Schweida is hoping a significant weight
swing and a gear change will enable Miss
Hipstar (Star Turn) to turn the tables on Swift
Witness (Star Witness) in the Classic. Miss
Hipstar was left trailing in the wake of Swift
Witness when she finished third, beaten nearly
four lengths by the Gai Waterhouse and Adrian
Bott-trained filly in the Gold Pearl (1100m) at
the Gold Coast last Saturday. On that occasion,
Miss Hipstar also had the burden of top-weight
of 58 kilograms, conceding four kilograms to
Swift Witness, but she meets that filly on level
weights this time round. Schweida has also
removed the winkers and added a visor to the
gear of Miss Hipstar. "She found the line pretty
good last weekend and meets the winner four
kilos better at the weights this time," Schweida
said. "I've taken the winkers off and put a visor
on just to try and eat into that margin she put
on us the other day." Schweida believes the
visor may help Miss Hipstar begin better in
the Classic after she was tardy at the start of
the Gold Pearl. "She was a bit slow out with the
winkers and I thought the visor would help her
to see the other horses when she breaks from
the gates," he said. "I felt a bit sick after the
barrier draw when she came up with 19, but she
deserves to take her place in the race."
Vella peaking for Snippets assignment Group 1 winner Bella Vella (Commands) will
line up in tomorrow’s Magic Millions Snippets
(1200m) with connections full of hope following
a sparkling workout this week. “Her gallop here
the other day was absolutely outstanding,” the
Sangster Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner’s trainer
Will Clarken told Racing.com. “She swung onto
the right leg at the right time and she galloped
as good as I’ve ever seen her.” Bella Vella was
last seen in action when finishing last of the nine
runners in the Manikato Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m)
back in October, but Clarken said she has thrived
during her break. “She came to the end of it
(preparation in the Manikato) and it was a messy
race and a forgive run, but her two runs before
that were exceptional,” he said. “She’s travelled
up here really well. She’s carrying a little bit more
condition than she did last prep and she’s really
thriving in the Queensland weather.”
No call yet on jockey for Hastings Connections of King Of Hastings (Ilovethiscity)
will leave it as late as possible before confirming
who will take the ride on the four-year-old in
the Snippets. The Anthony and Sam Freedman-
trained gelding only arrived in Queensland
yesterday, having won at Randwick on
Saturday. “He’s had a really good week so we
felt that he was fine to race on the back-up,”
Sam Freedman told Racing.com. “He’s drawn
a nice gate (nine) but we still need a jockey so
hopefully we can find a decent one. Because we
weren’t always going to be running, we didn’t
really plan this far ahead. You don’t hope that
other people are forced to scratch but if they do,
hopefully a decent rider becomes available.”
Jockeys without a ride in the race at present
include Brenton Avdulla, Andrew Mallyon and
Michael Dee, who was aboard King of Hastings
for his maiden win in May 2019.
Redouble out for historic Cup double Redouble (Redoute’s Choice) will attempt to
complete his own piece of Magic Millions history
when the gelding aims to become the first sprinter
to land the Magic Millions Cup (RL, 1400m) for
the second time tomorrow. The Bjorn Baker-
trained seven-year-old won the race in 2019 and
finished second behind the Tony Gollan-trained
Vega One (Lope De Vega) last year. Redouble
was also nominated for the Snippets but Baker
felt the longer trip was more suitable. “Redouble
went close last year and is in good shape again,”
the trainer said. “He seems to thrive this time of
the year and he likes the track. He’s definitely not
out of it again. He had barrier one when he won
the Cup two years ago but he had the outside gate
when he was beaten last year. This time he’s got
eight and you have to respect what he’s done in
the past.” Baker will also be represented in the
race by Edison (Fastnet Rock), who will be ridden
by Ryan Maloney, while Michael Rodd partners
Redouble.
Shaik second-up for Team Hawkes at Rosehill Tommy Berry is looking forward to getting back
on board Shaik (Sebring) when the three-year-
old has her second start for new connections in
a Benchmark 72 over 1300 metres at Rosehill
tomorrow. Berry partnered the filly for the first
time when she ran out an impressive winner at
Warwick Farm on her first start for Team Hawkes
on December 23. "She's a lovely filly, she
performed really well in some good company
last preparation obviously being placed behind
North Pacific," Berry said. "She's come into
the Hawkes stable from Brad Widdup's in very
good order and she was a really good winner
at her first run for the Hawkes'. She's definitely
improved since the last run, so it's the obvious
step for her to go back up to Saturday grade and
this looks a nice race for her."

TOSEN STARDOM - UNDEFEATED 2YO STAKES WINNER| 13 |
Twinstar out to continue hot streak Emma and Lucy Longmire are hoping their
recent winning run continues at Rosehill
when the consistent Designer Dance (Master
Of Design) lines up in tomorrow’s Highway
Handicap (1500m). Since Christmas Eve the
twins, who race under the banner of Twinstar
Racing, have had three winners from nine
starters, with Designer Dancer being one of the
most promising horses in their 30-strong team.
The six-year-old has proven to be a consistent
performer with two wins and eight placings
from 16 starts. Robbie Dolan, who rode her last
time out when finishing a close-up second in a
Highway Handicap at Randwick on December
19, will be back in the saddle when she jumps
from barrier two. "It's great to have Robbie back
on board and we're very happy with that barrier
draw," Emma Longmire said. "He probably
can't really take full advantage of that barrier,
but it should mean he can get into a position
without doing too much work." It will be the
first time the mare steps up to 1500 metres,
but Longmire believes her racing pattern will
be suited by the extra distance. "She's such a
relaxed mare in the run and just switches off,"
the co-trainer continued. "It's her first time
over more than 1400 metres but she has a really
good turn of foot and we're confident she will
run out the trip."
Alburq on black-type path at Flemington Mike Moroney hopes Alburq (Rubick) can
continue his rise towards stakes company
when he contests tomorrow’s 1200-metre
Benchmark 84 down the Flemington straight.
Alburq currently has one win from 18 starts,
but Moroney is eyeing black-type handicaps
for the four-year-old moving forward, with a
tilt at the Newmarket Handicap (Gr 1, 1200m)
on March 6 remaining a possibility. “He’s
pretty underrated,” Moroney told Racing.com.
“He’s always given us the impression he’s got
black-type in him. Certainly we’ll be looking
for a lesser class than the Newmarket, but we’ll
throw a nomination in for a race like that. It’s
a handicap so those lightweight horses really
have a chance. I’m not saying that is what we’ll
aim at; we’d like to run in any black-type race
that’s a handicap.” Moroney offered Jamie Kah
the ride on Alburq tomorrow, but with Kah set
to partner the Anthony and Sam Freedman-
trained Deep Dive (Deep Field), Alburq will
be ridden by Victoria Derby (Gr 1, 2500m)-
winning apprentice Lachlan King, who can
claim two kilograms.
Rawiller: scans reveal further injuries Brad Rawiller faces a longer period on the
sidelines than was first feared after further scans
revealed the jockey has also sustained fractures
to his back and ribs following a fall at Bunbury
on Wednesday. The 42-year-old was initially
reported to have suffered a broken collarbone
and punctured a lung after his mount,
Imprudent (Oratorio), stumbled and dislodged
him in race two. However, the Victorian Jockeys
Association released an update yesterday
morning confirming the additional fractures.
The incident comes a little more than two years
after Rawiller broke his neck and collarbone in
a fall at Cranbourne in 2018, an incident which
ruled him out of race-riding for six months.
Moody celebrates metro double Peter Moody posted his first metropolitan
double since his return to training when
Perennial (Per Incanto) and Diamonds Inthe Sky
(Zoustar) hit the scoreboard under apprentice
Will Price at Caulfield on Wednesday. “We
took four to the races yesterday thinking
they were all in the right race if luck fell their
way and two of them delivered,” the 56-time
Group 1-winning trainer told Racing.com from
the Gold Coast, where he is attending Magic
Millions. Diamonds Inthe Sky now boasts a
record of two wins, two placings and a fourth
from her five starts, while Perennial has two
wins and seven placings from her 12 starts. “We
haven’t got any delusions of grandeur, but they
can slowly step through the grades I reckon,”
Moody added of the duo’s future.
Cup hopeful Finche set for autumn debut Australian Cup (Gr 1, 2000m) contender Finche
(Frankel) is set for a jump-out at Flemington
today ahead of his first autumn campaign
in Australia. The imported six-year-old has
finished in the top ten in the last three runnings
of the Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m), but he has
yet to race in the autumn having been sidelined
in the early months of both 2019 and 2020.
"For the past two autumn carnivals he had
some little niggles but this time they’ve got him
cherry ripe and I think the Australian Cup looks
the race for him,” part-owner Brae Sokolski told
Racing.com. “I don’t think any of the three big
guns - Verry Elleegant, Sir Dragonet or Russian
Camelot - are going towards it so if you look
at his Turnbull runs over the same course, it’s
a good race for him." The Chris Waller-trained
Finche has placed in the last two runnings of
the Turnbull Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m) and Sokolski
added: “He hasn’t won a Group 1 but he’s got a
bit of a cult following because he’s such a lovely
horse and a genuine horse.”
Bargain buy set for Ballina Cup Six-time winner Sea Raider (Reset) will be out
to enhance his terrific strike-rate when the
bargain buy lines up in today’s $65,000 Ballina
Cup (1590m). Purchased by Gold Coast trainer
John Gilmore for $10,000 at the Magic Millions
National Yearling Sale in 2018, Sea Raider has so
far has won six of his 14 starts for prize-money
exceeding $108,000. He was last seen running
a two and a quarter-length third over 1400
metres at Eagle Farm on January 2. "I've always
had the Ballina Cup in mind for him this prep
and I couldn't be happier with him going into
the race,” Gilmore told Racing NSW. “His work
on Tuesday was good and he is unbeaten in soft
ground, so it will be another bonus if the Ballina
track stays in the soft range. Friday's race will be
the first time he's tackled a race beyond 1400
metres but I'm sure the 1590 metres at Ballina
will be ideal for him."

TOSEN STARDOM - SON OF WORLD CHAMPION DEEP IMPACT| 14 |
Public back at The Valley today The public will return to Moonee Valley
today for the first time since the coronavirus
pandemic struck. A maximum of 5,000 people
will be permitted on track under the official
guidelines, but a crowd of around 2,000 is
expected for the eight-race fixture in line with
the average for this type of meeting. “There
are restrictions still there so it’s still not your
stock standard day or night at the races, but it is
certainly getting somewhere back toward that,”
MVRC general manager - communications,
Alastair Dwyer, told Racing.com. “From next
Friday night we will start bringing back live
music and the like, so it will start looking more
like what people expect from a ‘Friday Night
Lights’ perspective.” General admission tickets,
which usually allow patrons to spend the night
on the lawn area, will instead be for grandstand
seats today with tickets to be pre-booked at a
cost of $10. As such, the lawn area will be lined
with socially-distanced picnic tables.
Childs and McNeil to resume trackwork Promising Victorian apprentices Tayla Childs
and Logan McNeil have both been granted
medical clearance to resume trackwork and
are expected to return to race-riding next
month. Childs, who fractured her ankle in a
freak pre-race incident at Kyneton in October,
confirmed the news on Twitter, while McNeil
hasn’t been seen in a race since May, having
undergone surgery to repair significant damage
to an injured foot. “I had my first day back at
trackwork on Monday,” McNeil told Racing.
com. “It’s been about seven and a half months
since the accident so it was good to finally get
back into the swing of things. It’s still going to
need a bit of time but it’s feeling good. I didn’t
expect it to be this long at all but it just didn’t
recover the way we hoped. I’ll have to wait and
see how it progresses, we’ll take it as it comes,
but I’m hoping that I’ll be ready to go in about
a month.”
Six-month suspension for apprentice Atkinson Fellow Victorian apprentice Kayla Atkinson has
been disqualified for six months on two charges
relating to a positive urine sample. The 20-year-
old, who is yet to ride in a race and has not
ridden in trials since last March, pleaded guilty
to two charges: providing a sample positive to
a banned substance and to twice substituting
her urine sample. Atkinson was suspended for
six months on the first charge and disqualified
for six months on the second, with the penalties
to be served concurrently. A Racing Victoria
stewards release said a urine sample provided
by Atkinson after riding trackwork at Caulfield
on December 7 was found to contain a banned
substance under AR 136. "When directed to
provide a urine sample, Ms Atkinson substituted
her urine sample on two occasions," the
statement read. Atkinson’s penalty is backdated
to December 7, meaning she will be free to
reapply for a license on June 7.
Consecutive bans for Collett Jason Collett received his second consecutive
metropolitan suspension at Warwick Farm
on Wednesday when he pleaded guilty to the
charge of careless riding aboard the Clare
Cunningham-trained Jungle Book (Animal
Kingdom), who won the Benchmark 72 over
1600 metres. Collett, who was suspended for
the same offence at Randwick last Saturday,
admitted to shifting out at the 200-metre
marker when insufficiently clear of Home
Ground (High Chaparral), who was unplaced,
resulting in that horse having to be steadied.
Both charges have resulted in Collett being
suspended from this Sunday until January 30.
NEW ZEALAND
Tavi Mac steps into Seabiscuit roleAllan Sharrock is hoping his Tavi Mac
(Tavistock) can provide the movie fairytale
finish to tomorrow’s Telegraph (Gr 1, 1200m)
at Trentham. "It's the old battler's tale. The little
horse from humble beginnings up against the
expensive Fastnet Rock mare, and she'll take
some beating too," Sharrock said, assessing
Tavi Mac's clash with four-time Group 1
winner Avantage (Fastnet Rock), the TAB's
$1.65 favourite for the Telegraph. "It's the old
Seabiscuit story. Just maybe?" Tavi Mac has
won ten of his 15 starts to date but chased
Avantage home when second in the Foxbridge
Plate (Gr 2, 1200m) at Te Rapa last August and
also in his only start at Group 1 level, when he
finished sixth to her third in the Tarzino Trophy
(Gr 1, 1400m) at Hastings in September. "I can't
fault him. He's glided through his last couple
of wins," Sharrock said. "We've increased the
intensity but he's loved it and he's right on top
of his game at the moment. But he'll need to be
to beat the mare. Look at the Foxbridge Plate.
He swished his tail and made her work all the
way to the line for her win that day. And he's
improved out of sight since then. He's a far
more polished racehorse now. But as we saw in
the Railway, she's improved a lot since then too.
But he's in outstanding condition for this. His
coat has come back to me again. He's peaking
again and his work suggests he's at his best."
Strike-rate standouts set for big day at TrenthamThe stable of Johno Benner and Hollie Wynyard
boasts the best strike-rate in New Zealand
this season, and a quality group of runners at
Trentham tomorrow could further embellish
their impressive record. Benner and Wynyard
have won 15 races so far this season having
saddled only 44 starters. “We can’t really
complain, things have been going pretty well
for us this season,” Benner said. “We’ve got
some nice horses around us, and now we’re
hoping for a big day on Saturday.” The only
thing missing from Benner and Wynyard’s CV
this season is black-type success, which they
will hope to rectify with Bonham (Per Incanto)
and Invisible Spirit (Charm Spirit), who will
take on star northern colt Brando (Savabeel) in
the Levin Classic (Gr 1, 1600m), as well as Titled
(Exceed And Excel) in the Wellesley Stakes
(Listed, 1000m). Bonham has tasted defeat
only once in her four-start career, finishing
seventh in the New Zealand 1000 Guineas (Gr

1, 1600m), while she posted a brilliant victory over
1400 metres at Awapuni last Saturday. “She pulled
up sensationally well from last week’s race,”
Benner said. “It was a relatively soft run for her in
the end. They didn’t run the race at a crazy tempo,
she had a nice trip and she really only sprinted in
the last furlong or two. She came through that run
so well, we couldn’t see any reason not to back her
up this Saturday. Group 1 races are so important
for lovely fillies like her, so we were keen to take
a shot at it.” As for Invisible Spirit, Benner said:
“He’s been super consistent. It might be a bit of an
ask this weekend up against the big ones, but he’ll
definitely be a runner’s chance. He’s nicely drawn
and has a good little record behind him. We won’t
be surprised if he runs well.”
INTERNATIONAL
KSA: Saudi Cup entries revealed In excess of 100 horses from nine different countries
have been entered for the second running of the
USD$20 million Saudi Cup (1800m) at Riyadh
on February 20. Nominations for the world’s
richest race were revealed on Wednesday and
they include a strong US contingent, spearheaded
by Preakness Stakes (Gr 1, 9.5f) winner Swiss
Skydiver (Daredevil), Malibu Stakes (Gr 1, 7f) hero
Charlatan (Speightstown) and Breeders' Cup Dirt
Mile (Gr 1, 1m) scorer Knicks Go (Paynter). Entries
from Europe include the William Haggas-trained
Addeybb (Pivotal), last year’s Ranvet Stakes (Gr 1,
2000m) and Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m)
hero who subsequently landed the Champion
Stakes (Gr 1, 1m 2f) at Ascot. He is one of 17 elite-
level winners to have received a nomination,
joining the likes of John Gosden’s Mishriff (Make
Believe), winner of the 2020 Prix du Jockey Club (Gr
1, 2100m) and an intended starter as a colt owned
and bred by Saudi’s Prince Faisal. There are more
than 400 international entries across the two days
of the Saudi Cup meeting, with Melbourne Cup
(Gr 1, 3200m) stalwart Prince Of Arran (Shirocco)
again featuring among the nominations for the
Long DIstance Turf Handicap (3000m), a race
in which he ran third behind the Call The Wind
(Frankel) last year.
US: Danceteria second on American debut The Australian Bloodstock-owned Danceteria
(Redoute’s Choice), who finished last in
the 2019 Cox Plate (Gr 1, 2040m) won by
Lys Gracieux (Heart’s Cry), ran second on
his American debut at Gulfstream Park on
Wednesday. Contesting an allowance optional
claimer, run over 1800 metres on turf and worth
USD$53,000 (approx. AUD$68,000), the now
Graham Motion-trained Danceteria was ridden
patiently early before staying on powerfully
in the straight to get within three-quarters
of a length of all-the-way winner Phantom
Currency (Goldencents), trained by Australian
Brian Lynch. A German Group 1 winner,
Danceteria was unable to show his best form
during six Australian starts, last seen running a
ten-length last of eight in the Hill Stakes (Gr 2,
2000m) at Randwick on October 3.

Vadamos COOLMORE
| 16 |
Coolmore have flexed their might
once more as the 2021 northern
hemisphere breeding season gets
underway, with the purchase of
Rich Hill Stud shuttler Vadamos (Monsun)
from Tally-Ho Stud in Ireland.
The French-bred son of Monsun
(Konigsstuhl), whose big race wins included
the Prix du Moulin (Gr 1, 1600m) at Chantilly
for trainer Andre Fabre, ended his on-track
career with two
fourth placings in the
2016 Cox Plate (Gr
1, 2040m) behind
Winx (Street Cry)
and the Mackinnon
Stakes (Gr 1, 2000m)
at Flemington before
retiring to stud. He will stand for a fee of €6,000
(approx. $9,400) this year.
In an encouraging start to his stud career,
Vadamos recorded 14 individual two-year-old
winners from his first northern hemisphere
crop, while the Karl Burke-trained Spycatcher
finished a close-up second to subsequent
Criterium de Saint-Cloud (Gr 1, 2000m) winner
Gear Up (Teofilo) in the Acomb Stakes (Gr 3, 7f)
at York.
Having covered 156 mares in his first season
at Rich Hill Stud from a fee of NZ$15,000,
Vadamos has produced one two-year-old to
race so far ahead of the 2021 Karaka Yearling
Sale which begins on January 24, where he’ll
have 30 yearlings go through the ring across
Books 1 and 2.
“Vadamos is a smashing looking horse
who has made an excellent start with his
first runners and we’re delighted to get
him,” said Coolmore representative, Albert
Sherwood.

MAIDEN OF THE WEEK
| 17 |
The strength of Swift Witness’ (Star
Witness) victory in the Aquis Gold
Pearl (1100m) last weekend can be
measured by the fact that she has
firmed into $3.90 favouritism for tomorrow’s
Magic Millions 2YO Classic (RL, 1200m).
This is despite the fact that, on paper, she
has almost five lengths to find on her Wyong
conqueror She’s All Class (I Am Invincible), the
$4.20 second elect for tomorrow’s $2 million
feature.
Racing in the Mystery Downs colours of
Francis and Christine Cook, Swift Witness had
held her ground on debut in the Magic Millions
Wyong 2YO Classic (RL, 1100m), but she
showed a tremendous amount of improvement
when she stepped out last weekend.
Ridden by Glen Boss, she sat handy before
drawing clear for a dominant three-length
success over first-starter Glorious Ruby (Your
Song) with favourite Miss Hipstar (Star Turn) a
further three-quarters of a length away in third.
“It was good to see the improvement with
the blinkers, we came up here thinking she had
the ability to be here and deserved a spot in the
(Magic Millions 2YO Classic) field so it will be
good to see her take her place,” Bott said.
“It was a bit of an ask for her to have her
first race in the Wyong Magic Millions, she got
a little bit lost there but she still found the line
strongly.
“Today she was a bit reactive to a few horses
shifting out but once she really balanced up
and got focused on the task, we were able to see
a nice turn of foot.
“It wasn’t easy with what happened pre-
race (with the race pushed back after apprentice
Justin Huxtable was kicked by a pony) but she

handled herself remarkably well, she went back to the stalls and was nice
and relaxed.”
Now, attention turns to tomorrow with Bott seeking his first
Magic Millions 2YO Classic to add to Waterhouse’s four with Assertive
Lad (Zeditave), Excellerator (Marscay), Dance Hero (Danzero) and
Driefontein (Fastnet Rock).
Since Bott joined the partnership, the pair have had five runners with
Czarson (Stratum) the best performer, finishing fourth in 2019. However,
last year saw subsequent Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner
Farnan (Not A Single Doubt) finish tenth for the stable.
A $260,000 purchase from the Widden Stud draft at last year’s Magic
Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, Swift Witness is the second stakes
placegetter out of Taylor’s Command (Commands), joining Gosford
Guineas (Listed, 1200m) runner-up Terminology (Star Witness).
Intriguingly, Terminology finished fourth to Jonker (Spirit Of Boom) in
the Magic Millions lead-up at Wyong before finishing second to Sunlight
(Zoustar) in what was the precursor to the Aquis Gold Pearl, meaning that
Swift Witness has a similar profile but has managed to go one better at
each of her two starts.
Terminology failed to gain a start in the Magic Millions 2YO Classic
itself - she was second emergency - but she did manage to win the
$250,000 Magic Millions Maiden Plate (1200m) a year later.
Taylor’s Command, a Seymour winner who was tested at stakes grade
in the Edward Manifold Stakes (Gr 2, 1600m), is a half-sister to Group 2
winner So Pristine (Zabeel) and Restored (Red Ransom), winner of the
Queen Elizabeth II Cup (Listed, 2000m), a Singapore Group 1.
It is also the family of six-time Grade 1 winner Theatrical (Nureyev),
sire of Melbourne Cup (Gr 1, 3200m) winner Media Puzzle and Victoria
Derby (Gr 1, 2500m) hero Portland Player among many, as well as other
top-flight victors like Paradise
Creek (Irish River), David Junior
(Pleasant Tap) and Bobby’s
Kitten (Kitten’s Joy).
Taylor’s Command has a
first Star Witness (Starcraft) colt
that will be sold just a couple of
hours after the Magic Millions
2YO Classic, while she produced
another filly by the sire in 2020.
She was again served by Star
Witness in November.
