Sires With Winners - Friday April 18

This time last year Bella Nipotina won the $1.5million Group I BRC Doomben 10,000 (1200m) before going on to claim victory in The Everest and it will be no surprise to see this year’s winner Sunshine in Paris also attempt the same feat.

The final group race of the two-day Scone Cup carnival was a case of needing to see it, to believe it as Scott Singleton’s locally trained mare Melody Again came from last to win the $250,000 Group 3 Arrowfield Dark Jewel Classic (1400m).

A Royal Ascot hero back in 2010, Starspangledbanner is well known for his slick juveniles and produced one at York overnight in the UK where Secret Hideaway won the Listed Marygate Fillies Stakes (5f).

Here is the full list of 40 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

A four year-old son of I Am Invincible, Caballus has never lacked for talent, however his path has not been smooth since selling for $1million as a yearling back in 2022.

The Queensland Winter Carnival is proving to be a happy hunting ground for Imperialist, who collected his second Brisbane black-type prize in Saturday’s A$250,000 Gr.3 HKJC World Pool Rough Habit Plate (2000m) at Doomben.

The top lot at the 2024 Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training Sale when selling for 1.3million guineas, lightly raced Frankel stallion Sir Delius (GB) justified his price tag when winning the Group III BRC Chairman’s Quality (2000m) at Doomben on Saturday.

Emma-Lee and David Browne’s victory in the A$300,000 Listed Lexus Andrew Ramsden (2800m) at Flemington on Saturday was enormously valuable in more ways than one for the Kiwi couple.

Saturday’s Harrison’s Carpet Hard Flooring 3YO (1600m) at Trentham brought the curtain down on Coulthard’s three-year-old season and hinted at an even brighter future as a four and five-year-old.
