Stryker has hit the ground running with his first two year-olds which already include stakes performers Miss Loren and She is Stryking as well as metropolitan winners Andrioli (Melbourne) , Labdien (Sydney) and Sonesta (Perth).

Stryker has 10 entries for the sale, three of them to be consigned by Three Bridges Thoroughbreds, with the full draft from the Liston family owned and run farm below.

"The VOBIS Gold races at Caulfield are worth a combined $920,000 and have attracted class horses like Trust In A Gust and Fontein Ruby," O'Brien said. "The prizemoney and bonuses are a terrific incentive and the Melbourne Racing Club has got right behind promoting the Owners & Breeders Raceday."
