Headwater 2YO Wins Black Opal Preview

There was a short-priced favourite in the $50,000 Canberra Black Opal Preview (1000m) on Friday, but Capitalist colt Amazing Eagle came up short when beaten by the local home town hero Vella’s Best.

Aitch Two Oh Captures Durbridge Stakes

The lightly raced Headwater mare Aitch Two Oh returned to the winner's circle for the first time since the Group III Red Roses Stakes at Flemington in November 2022 when she dominated in the Listed Durbridge Stakes (1100m) at Morphettville on Saturday.

Headwater's Runwiththetide Gets His Reward

Unfortunate enough to meet the next start Group III winner, The Novelist, when on debut at Kembla Grange last December, Runwiththetide had been a model of consistency without winning at his following three starts. After being gelded, the son of Headwater emerged from a 23-week spell to break his maiden over 1100m at Randwick-Kensington on Wednesday.

Sires With Winners - Sunday October 22

Here is the full list of 70 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia on Sunday with winners and result details.

Proven Value $13,200 to $16,500 – Test Your Mare

We had such a huge response to our story last week highlighting some great proven sires priced at $11,000 and below, we decided to up the ante slightly and find some more of these affordable sires that can help a budget conscious breeder get a dream result.

He Might Be Your Man

We’re two weeks into a new season and the cream has quickly risen to the top of the Australian General Sires List and the quinella we see right now could easily be the same quinella come the end of next July, but there is one value sire that has made a great start to the season and if you’re still looking for proven value to suit your mare he might be your man.
