One to Watch – Hawkesbury

Tara Madgwick - Sunday December 10

Widden Stud’s Trapeze Artist is the leading second crop sire by winners and earnings and he also gave us a One to Watch on Sunday with an impressive maiden winner in the Star Thoroughbreds colours at Hawkesbury.

Trained by Chris Waller and ridden by Zac Lloyd, three year-old filly Concello was having her second start in the 1600m maiden and was sent out favourite after a first up sixth at Canterbury last month.

She enjoyed a step up in trip to chime in with a big finish and run clear to win by three and a half lengths.

10,000 Magic Millions purchase for Star Thoroughbreds/Randwick Bloodstock Agency from the Ashleigh Thoroughbreds draft, Concello is the third winner and final foal from well bred Encosta de Lago mare Senta Helga (deceased in 2020), a winning sister to champion Hong Kong Stayer Liberator and to the dam of Group II winner Etana.

Concello was a $210,000 Magic Millions purchase.

 

The family has produced two new stakes performed fillies in recent weeks in Kiwi based stakes-winning three year-old Glamour Tycoon and Nymphadora, who was a fast finishing third in the $500,000 Inglis Nursery RL on Saturday.

Concello is the 19th Australian winner of the season for Trapeze Artist, who has 21 entries for Magic Millions and 17 for Inglis Classic.

Bucky’s Little Brother One to Follow
Talented import Buckaroo (GB) was one of the WFA stars of last year’s spring carnival and we had a first look at his younger half-brother in the $150,000 VRC Australian Cup Prelude (2000m) at Flemington on Saturday and Middle Earth (GB) did not disappoint.
Sixth SW The Autumn Sun - Snow In May Wins Listed Canberra Guineas
The Autumn Sun’s Group One placed daughter Snow In May got the first stakes win on the board at Canberra on Sunday when taking the Listed Canberra Guineas (1400m).
Shalaa's Jennilala Wins G3 Matron For New Trainer

Cambridge Stud Thrilled with Joliestar Newmarket Victory

Three Stakes Winners in Two Days for Alabama Express
Promising Alabama Express filly Glasgow Lass had been luckless in two attempts at black type this campaign but got the job done on Sunday with victory in the Listed Ascot 1000 Guineas (1800m).
Maternity Leave Well and Truly Over for Mahogany Girl
An interesting result at Hawkesbury on Saturday was the win of Mahogany Girl in the $150,000 Polytrack Provincial Midway Championship Qualifier (1400m) as while stallions sometimes come back to racing after a stint at stud, mares rarely do it, but she has proved it is not only possible, but profitable!
Farnan Top Two Go One-Two in the Black Opal

Zoustar Bargain Buy Wins Listed Canberra National Sprint
Zoustar is one of the hottest sires in the country right now producing last Saturday’s Group I VRC Newmarket Handicap winner Joliestar with 35 of his glamour yearlings set to light up the sale ring next month at Inglis Easter, but it was one of his cheapest yearlings that became his latest stakes-winner at Canberra on Sunday.
From Last to First for Trapeze Artist Winner
Thought good enough to contest a couple Group I Oaks races last season, Group III placed Trapeze Artist mare Concello produced a tenacious last to first effort to win at Canterbury on Friday night for Star Thoroughbreds.
