Arrowfield Stud’s shuttler Shalaa (IRE) became the third first crop stallion to open their winning account on Saturday and the second to have a stakes-winner after the Chris Waller-trained colt Shaquero did the right thing by the sponsor with a dominant win in the Group III Arrowfield Breeders’ Plate (1000m) at Randwick.
Four heats for juveniles at Eagle Farm on Tuesday morning included some impressive winners headed by a homebred Shalaa (IRE) filly for Rothfire’s breeders Gleeson Thoroughbreds that bolted away to win in the fastest time of the session.
