Sires With Winners - Friday September 12

Boxing Day racing begins three days of stakes racing in Australia and New Zealand with all the Sale Mail at Breednet if you want to keep an eye on what’s about to unfold.

Stakes targets are in the offing for consistent gelding Maldini after he scored the biggest win of his career when taking out the Dunstan Horsefeeds Stayers’ Championship Final (2400m) at Ellerslie on Boxing Day.

Capitalist enjoyed strong results on Boxing Day with a new stakes-winner at Sandown in Hedged, while across the Tasman in New Zealand his lightly raced five year-old Rise Companions is shaping as a horse with a lot more to offer.

When a half-sister by Zoustar to Golden Slipper winner Farnan sells for just $250,000 at Inglis Easter you would be entitled to wonder what was wrong with her, but it turns out lack of size does not mean lack of ability.

Here is the full list of 25 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

Capitalist gelding Hedged has always shown above average ability, splitting G1 winners Joliestar and Libertad when second in the 2024 Group II ATC Arrowfield Sprint and the now five year-old claimed his first stakes win at Sandown on Boxing Day when taking out the Listed MRC Christmas Stakes (1200m).

Five year-old Zoustar gelding Regal Zeus is closing in on a million dollars in prizemoney after scoring a bold front running win in the Listed MRC Lord Stakes (1600m) at Sandown on Boxing Day.

Favourite for next month’s $3million Magic Millions 2YO Classic, Extreme Choice colt Paradoxium has suffered a bout of travel sickness and has been scratched from the Group III BRC BJ McLachlan Stakes at Eagle Farm this Saturday.

The top two fillies on the NZB Filly of the Year Series leaderboard will both be among the many stars stepping out at Ellerslie on Boxing Day, but they will be in different races.

Here is the full list of 103 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.
