Here is the full list of 95 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

It’s often said yearling buyers drill for oil where they have found it before and that rang true when BK Racing purchased a colt by Hellbent for $400,000 at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale on Sunday.

A filly and a colt both directly targeted at the Classic Yearling Sale to “stand out from the crowd’’ strongly rewarded their owners today as Inglis’ live sales season started on a positive note.

Here is the full list of 48 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott stable have already had success this season for Kurrinda Bloodstock with brilliant 2YO filly Shiki, who won the Group III ATC Gimcrack Stakes and they teamed up again for another filly by her sire Too Darn Hot (GB) at Inglis Classic on Sunday.

Western Australia’s champion sire Playing God achieved a notable career milestone on Saturday when his son Almighty Class notched up a quarter century of stakes winners for the remarkable stallion, posting a commanding victory in the Listed Cyril Flower Stakes.
