Puissance De Lune - New Winner

Promising Wootton Bassett colt Gallo Nero will be looking to get himself into the Magic Millions picture on Saturday off an impressive barrier trial on Monday but he’ll have to get past the favourite to do so.

Here is the full list of 9 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

Osteria was only upstaged by his talented older stablemate last time out, and back in his own age group, the gelding will be a contender in Thursday’s Gr.2 Shaw’s Wire Ropes Auckland Guineas (1400m) at Ellerslie.

The Matthew Williams-trained Unseen Ruler came from well back in the field to prevail in the Dennis Hanrahan Handicap (1800m) at Caulfield Heath on Boxing Day as the five-year-old gelding notched his fifth career victory.

Debbie Kepitis and her family have spent months pondering on what to call the most expensive yearling ever sold in Australia and the Pierro filly from Winx will start 2025 with a name.

An exciting group of rookie stallions will have their first yearlings going through the Karaka sale ring late next month.

Cambridge trainer Stephen Marsh light heartedly suggested he was still waiting for his Christmas presents prior to racing commencing at Ellerslie on Boxing Day, but didn’t take long to fill his stocking with Provence taking out the Westbury Stud Royal Descent Stakes (1400m).

Wexford Stables are bullish about landing a couple of knockout blows at Ellerslie on Boxing Day.

The owners of Damask Rose have been given a late Christmas present, with Te Akau Racing selecting the exciting filly to represent their slot in the inaugural $3.5 million NZB Kiwi (1500m) on Champions Day at Ellerslie on March 8.

There is always a flurry of trial activity all around Australia before the frenzy of Christmas and New Year racing so it’s worth a look at the Breednet unraced trial report to see what first season sires have some smoke on the horizon that could well turn into fire.
