Second Season Sires

Record Priced Fighting Sun Breaks His Maiden

Sun Stud’s Fighting Sun has been firing on all cylinders of late and he has another likely type in the Matt Cumani-trained Western Sun who opened his winning account at the second time of asking in a 2-Y-O Maiden Plate over 1200m on the Pakenham Park synthetic on Friday.

Tenth SW for Epaulette

24 hours after siring his ninth stakes-winner with a Listed win in Ireland for Insignia of Rank, Epaulette added a tenth when four year-old mare Lapulced'acqua took out the Group III Premio del Giubileo at San Siro in Italy.

New SW and a Metro Double for Epaulette

It was another typically good day at the office on Saturday for Darley’s Epaulette, who delivered a metropolitan double at Rosehill with smart three year-olds River Bird and Dulette as well as a new stakes-winner in Ireland with Insignia of Rank taking out the Listed Curragh Celebration Stakes.

Impressive Epaulette Debut Winner

Darley’s Epaulette keeps producing smart winners and delivered a debut three year-old winner at Randwick on Wednesday in Covert Operation that looks to have a bright future.

Epaulette's Kordia Opens Stakes Account

It was looking grim for favourite backers when Kordia was well back on the fence turning for home in Saturday’s Listed Winning Edge Presentation Stakes (1400m) at Eagle Farm, but under a cool and confident Blake Shinn, the son of Epaulette found clear air halfway down the straight to charge home and earn a maiden stakes success.

Winners to Runners Can Highlight Success

The seasonal winners to runners strike rate for a sire, and particularly a young sire, is often a great indication to show he has a wide spread of horses with the ability to win at least one race somewhere.
