As we move into the back end of the season, interest remains in the progeny of first season sires stepping out at the trials so Breednet are tracking them and our report for this week features 12 sires with unbraced trial winners in the pipeline.

The Warwick Farm trials on Monday featured a couple of heat winners on the polytrack by first season sires Impending and Ribchester (IRE) that both raced last year and are now back for their second preparations.

The report catalogues the performance of all progeny of first season sires up until they race offering a quick way to see anything of interest that may be in the pipeline.
