Meanwhile Widgee Turf (Group 3 Victoria Handicap) and Shoreham (Group 3 Easter Cup) made a clean sweep of the Stakes races at Caulfield today and 4YOs Spright (Group 3 Star Kingdom Stakes) and Cellarman (Group 3 Doncaster Prelude) added more black type to their pages at Rosehill.

The Caulfield double was a huge result for Little Plains Stud, who offered both Widgee Turf (2014 Great Southern Sale) and Shoreham (2011 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale) for public auction through Inglis.

Spright returns to formAt Rosehill Spright (Hinchinbrook x Dashoff) took her career earnings past $500,000 when coming from last on the home turn to win the Star Kingdom Stakes.

It was the third Stakes success for the great pinhook result for Gary Mudgway of Grange Thoroughbreds, who bought her for $12,000 at the Australian Broodmare & Weanling Sale before onselling her for $100,000 at the Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale.

And Cellarman made it four wins from his past five starts when claiming the Doncaster Prelude.

The son of Mossman won't back up in next weekend's Group 1 Doncaster Mile but continues to be a great success story for her connections at Star Thoroughbreds, who bought her for $90,000 from Yallambee Stud's draft at the 2015 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale.
