Back-to-back in the G1 SA Derby. What an absolute thrill! 🏆

Wigmore delivers for us this year in testing conditions, bringing up another Group 1 for the stable alongside our great supporters in OTI.

We purchased him in conjunction with the OTI team off a tough run in the New Zealand Derby and always felt he had the right profile. So to see him come to Australia, settle in, and produce this performance just 8 weeks later is a huge credit to the horse and our team!

A big thank you to our ownership group who backed us in with the purchase, it’s results like this that make it all worthwhile.

A tough, genuine stayer and we’re very excited about what’s ahead for him.
