Bold Silvano (SAF)

He’s nothing flash to look at and cost just $7,000 as an unbroken three year-old in a Magic Millions Online Sale, but the Marc Conners trained Shamus Award gelding Willaidow has the most important thing of all and that’s the will to win and he showed it at Rosehill on Saturday when taking out the $250,000 Group III ATC Southern Cross Stakes (1200m).

It’s been a good day at the office for Kia Ora Stud, who share in the ownership of two stakes-winning juvenile Snitzel colts on Saturday in Blitzburg and Return to Conquer, but the real icing on the cake came with their homebred I Am Invincible filly Inkaruna, who made a winning debut in the $200,000 Group III MRC Chairman’s Stakes (1000m) at Sandown.
