Lightly raced 3 year old filly ROSATO joined our recent winner’s roll call yesterday with a win at Doomben over 1,200 metres. The daughter of Rubick jumped away nicely and jockey Jim Byrne settled her in a great spot in 4th position one off the fence, behind the leading pair who were setting only a […]

On Friday a number of our first starters trained out of the Chris Waller Racing Gold Coast stable began their careers with 2 winners from our four runners and encouraging performances from the other two fillies on the day. First up it was 3 year old Zoustar filly OLENTIA who made a big impression with […]

Following an unlucky first up run this preparation, HOLLYWOOD NORTH returned to the winners circle with a well judged ride by Jason Collett in the 1,400 metres Benchmark 72 on the Kensington track at the Friday twilight meeting. The 4 year old son of Vancouver drew well but drifted back to worse than midfield. He […]

At his second race start, CHRYSAOR the son of successful Queensland stallion Better Than Ready, had gained the experience he needed from his first start prior a fortnight earlier, to win impressively on the Sunshine Coast on Saturday. Over the 1,200 metres trip, the colt jumped well and took just on 100 metres to get […]

SIBYLLA entered the winners enclosure yesterday for the first time following her win in the 1,350 metres event at Ipswich. The filly jumped well for jockey James Orman and he used the good draw to push forward, forcing the speed horses to cross before SIBYLLA settled nicely in fifth position. A solid tempo was set […]

SHAKAKHAN raced first up this preparation over 1,300 metres at the Gold Coast on Saturday with Luke Dittman aboard. Fortunately it was the first race on the card on a heavy 8 track because the race meeting was subsequently abandoned later in the day due to deteriorating conditions. The daughter of Shalaa (IRE) is a […]

CARNEROS has been racing consistently this preparation and the lightly raced 4 year old gelding recorded his second career win yesterday when racing over 1,680 metres at Ipswich. The son of Fastnet Rock jumped in front from the inside barrier and James didn’t give up his rail position making those wanting to lead work to cross him before […]

DESERT ICON (FR) returned to The Valley once again on Friday night and made it back to back wins with jockey Brett Prebble aboard over the famous 2,040 metres course. This time the 7 year old gelding stepped up to Stakes company and won the Group 3 JRA Cup in scintillating fashion by a comfortable 3.5 […]

JUPITUS is a lightly raced 4 year old son of Sebring and he recorded his second career victory when flashing home at Ladbrokes Park Hillside over 1,500 metres yesterday. The gelding began a little slowly from an outside draw and jockey Damian Lane had to opt for a spot at the rear of the field where JUPITUS travelled a touch keen […]

KIKU further upgraded her pedigree page on Saturday at Rosehill Gardens with a big win in the Group 2 Theo Marks Stakes. First up this preparation over 1,300 metres, the full sister to Group 1 winner Zoutori rounded up the field in the home straight to win in the last stride with Jason Collett aboard. […]
