Palentino - New Winner

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.

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.

Tony Gollan believes he has a Magic Millions 2yo Classic contender in the Spirit Of Boom filly La Bella Boom, who opened her winning account in Wednesday's Portland Sky First Crop Yearlings @ Widden Hcp (1200m).

There were some interesting juvenile heats at the Randwick trials on Tuesday morning with Magic Millions eligible youngsters out in force including several colts from the Waterhouse Bott stable, a blueblood filly with a full brother entered for MM 2025 and at Wyong first season sire Anders had a stylish winner trained by Sara Ryan that is also MM eligible.

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.

Ole Kirk’s first stakes-winner King Kirk was in action at the barrier trials at Randwick this morning, but in tragic news the winner of the Group III ATC Breeders Plate lost his life later in the day following an incident at the swimming pool.

The Inglis Digital December Sale scheduled for early next month is set to feature the winner of the 2023 Group I MRC Caulfield Guineas (1600m).

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.

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.

Here is the full list of 24 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.
