Five Winner Saturday for Hellbent

Tara Madgwick - Saturday August 17

He might play second fiddle to his champion sire I Am Invincible at Yarraman Park, but Hellbent has started this new season on a mission and with five winners on Saturday is now sharing the lead at the top of the Australian Sires List by winners.
