Admiral Salutes

Tara Madgwick - Thursday December 8
Star Tasmanian galloper Admiral made it back to back wins in the Listed Conquering Stakes at Launceston on Wednesday evening.

MossmanThe talented Mossman gelding was the dominant two and three year-old in Tasmania before blossoming further last season to cut a swathe through the Tasmanian Summer Carnival winning four consecutive races starting with the Conquering Stakes.

Prepared by Barry Campbell, Admiral looks to be on track to repeat that success carrying 59 kg to a head victory in the 1400 metre sprint.

He has the impressive record of 14 wins and five placings from 24 starts with prizemoney of topping $674,000.

Retained to race by his breeders, Admiral runs for a big group of friends including long time stable client Bruno Calabro and Star Thoroughbreds principal Denise Martin.

He is the first winner for Campbell's former classy mare Reunification, who won 12 races and over $190,000 in prizemoney with numerous Black Type placings on her resume.

Sadly for the owners, Reunification died in 2014 and her last foal is Admiral.

Vinery Stud stalwart Mossman has 10 yearligns for Magic Millions and eight  for Inglis Classic.
