Sires With Winners - Monday July 13

Yulong released a video Tweet last week recapping their sensational spring carnival results and also revealing the passing of their dual Group I winning Frankel mare Hungry Heart.

As the breeding season winds down, the focus in the bloodstock world is fast switching to the yearling sales of 2025 and for the big colts syndicate investors it’s time to take stock and see maybe what has worked well and what hasn’t so we’re looking at all of the stakes-winning colts from last season and where they sit after the spring carnival.

The four-day Tattersalls December Foal Sale got off to a solid start in the opening session with a colt by SPACE TRAVELLER heading proceedings at 82,000 guineas and increases in the median, average and clearance rate from the equivalent day in 2023.

Here is the full list of 10 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

In any other year Group One-winning mare Skew Wiff would likely be on her way to the breeding barn, however, with the level of prizemoney now on offer, owner-breeder Mark Chittick of Waikato Stud has decided to continue with her as a racing proposition.

The 900m juvenile maiden at Newcastle on Wednesday produced a quinella for champion sire Snitzel with a pair of unraced Magic Millions eligible colts fighting out the finish.

Renowned by buyers for its quality and value, the Tasmanian Yearling Sale has a proud history of producing racetrack stars right across Australia and with a quality catalogue this coming February that tradition looks set to continue.

The newly-established TAB Racing Club will have their first juvenile runners to the races at Ellerslie on Saturday, including Proisir filly Dorothea for trainer Pam Gerard and a Snitzel filly sourced from Inglis Easter for $400,000.

French auction house Arqana have announced a unique initiative to support breeders seeking to utilise elite European sires with the resulting progeny to be sold through their sales as foals or yearlings – is it a concept that could be explored for the Australian market?

Steven Ramsay and Julia Ritchie will bid to continue their hot run of form since moving their operation to a new property with another trip to the Central Districts this week.
