BARRYFROM BRUNZWIK IS BACK!
After almost 18 months on the sideline, Barryfrom Brunzwik's return to racing couldn't have been sweeter! The son of Yes Yes Yes dug deep at Donald yesterday to get his first win on the board.

A huge thanks to his special ownership group for maintaining their faith in this much loved horse. It was a rewarding win for all involved including jockey Ryan Hurdle. In his post race interview, the horse was described by Ryan as "Such a character...your mate....and cheeky as ten men, a description tha could also apply to his namesake, the late Rohan Robertson.

Looking forward to more fun times ahead with this tough and lovable larrikin.

Last chance to race a horse closely related to 2022 Golden Slipper winner Fireburn!

We have a small number of shares left in our classy Rebel Dane x Wichita Woman two-year-old filly. She’s closely related to Fireburn, the star who took out the 2022 Golden Slipper—talk about proven pedigree! Watch the 2022 Golden Slipper replay and imagine what this filly could achieve. And when her racing career is over, she still has plenty of potential in the breeding barn. Fireburn’s first foal sold in Japan for over $3 million!

FOREMMAKATE SECURES HER SECOND CONSECUTIVE VICTORY!

The talented Exceedance filly travelled across the SA border to Murray Bridge on Saturday and showcased not only her ability but also the enduring legacy behind her name. Named in honour of the late Emma-Kate McGrath, Foremmakate’s success brings well deserved attention to the 4EK Foundation, a charity established to raise awareness of prevention of Meningococcal Disease.

The win was enjoyed by her enthusiastic ownership group including the local Ballarat Football Netball Club syndicate. Thank you to SA apprentice jockey Caitlin Tootell for a great race ride, and all our team including farrier Stephen Byrne and track rider Alina who have done a lot of work with this lovely filly.
