Three for James Harron Bloodstock at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale

It was an especially exciting edition of the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale this year, with the first foal out of Champion Winx generating feverish excitement, and the entire Inglis team should be very proud of the great atmosphere that this generated.

We were in action, and delighted to come away with three high-quality yearlings for our owners, please see their details below

Lot 140 - Exceed and Excel x Media Sensation colt - $550,000

Our first purchase for the James Harron Bloodstock Colt Partnership was this colt by Exceed and Excel, secured from Sledmere Stud. He’s a very forward-looking colt, with lovely strength and a great attitude.

Exceed and Excel is one of the best sources of 2YO speed, and this colt is also out of Group 1 winner Media Sensation, who is by another good source of speed in I Am Invincible.

Lot 211 - Zoustar x Phantom Queen colt - $650,000

Our final purchase for the James Harron Bloodstock Colt Partnership for this year was this quality colt by Zoustar, secured from Widden Stud.

He is bred on the same Zoustar x Charge Forward cross that produced multiple Group 1 winner Sunlight. Phantom Queen is herself well-bred, being a half-sister to Group 1 winner Sweet Idea.

Lot 227 - Zoustar x Prompt Response - $2,200,000

Our final purchase at Inglis Easter was this magnificent filly by Zoustar out of Group 1 winner Prompt Response, purchase from Widden Stud.

An incredible filly, with great size, substance and power, and being out of a top-class mare we were very excited to secure her.

Espionage dominant in Kindergarten Stakes on Day 1 of the Championships

After narrowly missing out on a start in the Group 1 Golden Slipper, Espionage lined up as a strong favourite in the Group 3 Kindergarten Stakes for trainers Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott.

Settled beautifully just behind the speed by jockey Tommy Berry, Espionage cruised into the race in the straight and powered clear in the final stages to win by over three lengths.

This was Espionage’s second Group race victory as a 2YO, after his exciting earlier win in the Group 3 Breeders’ Plate at Randwick in October. He by leading sire Zoustar and is out of the very smart Street Cry mare In Times of War and was secured from the Baramul Stud draft for the JHB Colt Partnership.

Espionage will now head out for a well-deserved break, and looks a very exciting prospect as we look towards his three-year-old season.

Congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Fergus Doyle, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, John & Frances Ingham, Jean-Dominique & Rianna Huyhn, Gary Diamond, Danny & Pauline Saab, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, and Gerry & Katie Page Harvey.

Aardvark flies home to win Talindert Stakes at Flemington

Capitalist colt Aardvark was secured on behalf of the JHB Colt Partnership after a pair of impressive early-season jump outs, and confirmed the promise of his October debut, when third to Coleman in the Listed Debutant Stakes, when running out an impressive winner of the Listed Talindert Stakes at Flemington this weekend. In doing so he became the fourth 2YO stakes winner for this crop of the JHB Colt Partnership.

Settled beautifully behind the speed under jockey Damian Lane, Aardvark powered through to lead in the final stages, winning with his ears pricked.

Many thanks to trainers Troy and Leon Corstens, who had Aarvark well prepared, and a big congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Gary Diamond, Danny & Pauline Saab, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Jean-Dominique & Rianna Huynh, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, Tom & Leslie Kennedy, Ron Gilbert, Peter and Michelle McMahon and Dean Harvey.

Bodyguard dominant in Blue Diamond Prelude

Put away after a dazzling debut at Flemington, Bodyguard returned to the races this weekend in the Group 3 Blue Diamond Prelude at Caulfield and produced a top-drawer performance. Never better than three-wide from a tricky barrier, he powered past his rivals in the straight under Mark Zahra to win comfortably against a very strong field of race-fit rivals.

Bodyguard was secured from the Emirates Park Stud draft at the 2023 Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale for the JHB Colt Partnership, and is one of five 2YO colts to have secured black type this season so far, from a crop of just eleven. He is out of Tumooh, a daughter of Golden Slipper winner Mossfun, and by Champion Sire I Am Invincible.

A huge thanks to trainers Peter and Paul Snowden, and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Doyle’s Breeding and Racing, Rob Love, John & Frances Ingham, Gary Diamond, Danny & Pauline Saab, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Jean-Dominique & RIanna Huynh and Emirates Park Stud.

Bodyguard now head to the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday 24th February.

Nine for JHB at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale

The Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale continues its inexorable rise, with the entire fortnight becoming an incredible fusion of top-class racing, yearling sales and more recently showjumping and polo.

This family has already worked very well with Redoute’s Choice blood, with Group 1 winner Stratum Star (by Redoute’s Choice’s son Stratum) and Group 1 runner-up Prague (by Redoute’s Choice), both standing at stud.

Serenade was herself a smart sprinter, and a precocious 2YO, running second in the Inglis 2YO Classic pre-Christmas, while she has already produced city winner Israelite Bay, and her current 2YO Wolfgang is also a city winner and ran in this year's Magic Millions 2YO Classic.

Lot 349 - Extreme Choice x Wanted Lady colt - $1,600,000

This colt is an outstanding physical type, by a stallion in Extreme Choice, who is running at 25% stakes-class 2YOs to runners, which is truely elite.

Lot 669 - Capitalist x Fimatino colt - $800,000

This is a powerful colt by Golden Slipper winner Capitalist. He is a half-brother to Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner Shaquero, and comes from the family of Cox Plate winner Shamus Award.

This is a very impressive colt by Zoustar, out of the very fast mare Lady Cosmology. He’s got great quality, exceptional girth and a lovely action. His dam was a top-class mare in Western Australia, where she beat the subsequent top-class Group 1 winner Arcadia Queen.

Lot 920 - Capitalist x Maroon Bay colt - $350,000

This is a very fast-looking son of Capitalist, who is bred on very precocious and speedy lines. He is a half-brother to the smart 2YOs Ebhaar and Shotmaker, and out of a three- quarter sister to Coolmore Stud Stakes winner Merchant Navy. Capitalist crossed with Exceed and Excel is also a promising cross, with three stakes horses from just 19 runners to date, including Group 3 winner Kaizad.

Lot 909 - Wootton Bassett x Majestic Sea filly - $400,000

This filly is an exceptional physical, with an outstanding action and great depth of girth. She’s from the first Australian-bred crop of Wootton Bassett, an exceptional stallion in Europe, and from a very productive family of sprinter/milers, which is also what she presents as physically.

Lot 786 - Snitzel x In Times of War filly - $1,400,000

This is an exceptional daughter of Champion Sire Snitzel, and she is a half-sister to the JHB Colt Partnership’s recent Group 3 Breeders’ Plate winner Espionage. She’s got lovely shape, a purposeful action and an unflappable attitude.

Highness reigns in Wyong Magic Millions

Beuaituflly prepared by Michael Freedman and his team, Highness lined up in the $200,000 Listed Wyong Magic Millions 2YO Classic yesterday and produced a power-packed finish to cement his place in the $3m Magic Millions 2YO Classic at the Gold Coast in January.

Rated well by Tommy Berry behind the speed, Highness had plenty of work to do turning into the short Wyong straight, but knuckled down in tremendous style to overhaul the smart, race-fit leader Spywire and win going away. The winning time was just a tick outside that of fellow JHB Colt Partnership representative Capitalist, who took out this race in 2015.

Highness was purchase at the 2023 Magic Milions Gold Coast Yearling sale from the Segenhoe Stud draft, and is out of a half-sister to Horse of the Year Dissident. He will now likely have a barrier trial in Sydney in preparation for the Gold Coast.

Congratulations to his owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Doyle’s Breeding & Racing, G1G Colts and Breeding, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Jean-Dominque & Rianna Huynh, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Frances Ingham, Gandharvi Racing and Owen & Jayne Egan.

Mumma a metro winner at Moonee Valley

Capitalist filly Milliondollarmumma boasts a top-class pedigree, being from the family of turf luminaries such as Melito, Zeditave, Pariah and furth back, of our recent Breeders’ Plate winner Espionage. She was a winner at Cranbourne in her first preparation, and this Friday on her second run back as a 3YO, showed lovely improvement to run out a dominant winner over 1200m at Moonee Valley to record her first city win. “She began so well and we were able to track the Godolphin runner and it became a big advantage and on the corner I was going better than it and she did a really good job,” said jockey Damian Lane.

Milliondollarmumma is a homebred for Rob Love, and is out of Angel’s Choice, a JHB private broodmare purchase. Angel’s Choice had a full-sister to Milliondollarmumma make $420,000 at last year’s Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, while she has a yearling filly by I Am Invincible who will head to the same sale early next year.

Thanks to trainers Anthony and Sam Freedman, who have been very patient with this filly, and fingers crossed she can follow in the family black-type tradition down the track.

Satin and Silk continues a dynasty with impressive victory

Satin and Silk pictured with her dam Satin Shoes as a foal

A fast and precocious filly, who acquitted herself well on debut in the Gimcrack Stakes on a very unsuitable heavy track, Satin and Silk returned today as a three-year-old and ran out an impressive winner over 900m at Scone.

Showing her customary speed, she quickly found the lead under jockey Mitchell Bell, and powered away from her rivals up the straight to win with plenty in hand.

Satin and Silk is the fourth winning filly out of the multiple Group winner Satin Shoes, who was one of our first yearling purchases for the Edmund and Belinda Bateman. She’s been a great servant at stud also, with her first foal being Gimcrack winner Satin Slipper, who is herself the dam of the top-class 3YO sprinter I Am Unstoppable.

Belinda Bateman now has six daughters of Satin Shoes, with the recent arrival of a Written Tycoon filly this year and her current 2YO named Satin Sparkle (by Zoustar) in training with Chris Waller, and the ‘Satin’ dynasty looks like being one which will grow and grow for her wonderful portfolio.

Rapido bounds away at Newcastle

Rapido - pictured as a yearling

Capitalist colt Rapido had been knocking on the door for a win, and converted in no uncertain terms this weekend at Newcastle. Settled in behind under jockey Andrew Adkins, he exploded in the straight to power away from his rivals for a most impressive success.

Rapido was purchased from the Twin Hill Stud draft at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sales, and is out of the smart American mare Madam Cactus.

Thanks to trainers Peter and Paul Snowden, and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Fergus Doyle, Rob Love, Gary Diamond, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, John & Frances Ingham, Jean-Dominique and Rianna Huynh and Danny Saab.

Bodyguard brings up early 2YO stakes double for the JHB Colt Partnership

Having drawn barrier 13 of 14 in the Breeders’ Plate at Randwick, Bodyguard was re-routed to Melbourne for the Listed Maribyrnong Trial up the Flemington straight, and he did not disappoint on his race day debut, powering clear with his ears pricked to dominate the field.

Settled towards the rear in a packing field, once into the daylight under jockey Craig Williams, Bodyguard powered through the pack to win by an expanding margin under just hands and heels riding.

His win followed the Group 3 Breeders’ Plate win for fellow JHB Colt Partnership alumnus Espionage, the two colts having filled the quinella in their heat at the first official 2YO trials at Kensington back on 18th September.

Bodyguard was secured from the Emirates Park Stud draft at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale earlier this year, and congratulations must also go to breeders Emirates Park, having also bred Gimcrack Stakes winner Manaal.

Big thanks to Peter and Paul Snowden and their team, who had Bodyguard perfectly prepared for his debut, and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Fergus Doyle, Rob Love, John & Frances Ingham, Gary Diamond, Danny & Pauline Saab, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Jean-Dominique & RIanna Huynh and Emirates Park Stud.

Espionage thrills in the Group 3 Breeders' Plate on debut

After a promising start for our Colt Partnership Class of 2023 at the first official barrier trials, it was great to see that rewarded for our owners with Espionage producing a thrilling run to take out the Group 3 Breeders’ Plate at Randwick yesterday.

Settled beautifully by jockey Blake Shinn, Espionage was forced to sit very wide from his awkward barrier, but proved up to the task, cruising into contention in the straight and powering home to take out this historic race.

He was a JHB Colt Partnership purchase from the Baramul Stud draft at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, and is a son of Zoustar and out of In Times of War, a metropolitan-winning daughter of Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner Military Rose.

Many thanks to trainers Adrian Bott and Gai Waterhouse, who incredibly supplied the trifecta here, and to jockey Blake Shinn, who was winning his third Breeders’ Plate for our owners, after Capitalist and Khan.

Huge congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Fergus Doyle, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, John & Frances Ingham, Jean-Dominique & Rianna Huyhn, Gary Diamond, Danny & Pauline Saab, Marc & Lindy de Stoop, and Gerry & Katie Page Harvey.

Promising start for the JHB class of 2023 at the first official 2YO trials

The first crop of 2YOs for the JHB Colt Partnership debuted at the first official 2YO trials in 2015, with subsequent Group 1 Golden Slipper winner Capitalist and Group 3 Black Opal Stakes winner Defcon both taking out their respective heats. This year, we unveiled six colts, with three of them winning their heats, and two running nice seconds to also qualify them for the time-honoured Group 3 Breeders’ Plate on Saturday 30th September.

Our morning started in heat 3, where Pierata colt Fearless, trained by Peter and Paul Snowden, showed great acceleration from a tricky position to run down the leader Prost in the final stages. A scopey colt with a great action, Fearless has proven himself up to the challenge every time he has been asked a question this preparation, and this was another lovely step forward for him. Fearless was purchased from the Highgrove Stud at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale, and is out of a half-sister to top-class sprinter and sire Starspangledbanner.

Highness (number 2) leads home Gravitas (closest camera) in heat 5

In heat 5 JHB colts provided the quinella, with Snitzel colt Highness leading home Capitalist colt Gravitas. Trained by Michael Freedman, Highness has been a rapid improver in recent weeks, and a good jump out a fortnight ago gave him the tick of approval from his trainer to take his place this morning. He showed great speed and attitude to lead throughout and power home in a fast time. Highness came from the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, where he was offered by Segenhoe Stud. He is out of Diana’s Star, a half-sister to Horse of The Year, Dissident.

Gravitas, with the Adrian Bott and Gai Waterhouse team, did a few things wrong around the turn, but showed a lovely turn of speed himself in the straight and looks to have a nice future himself. He was a purchase from the Kitchwin Hills draft at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale, and is a half-brother to Group 1 winner Steps in Time.

Espionage (maroon hat) and Bodyguard (centre) fight out heat 7

Our final two colts were both in heat 7, and again they provided the quinella, with Zoustar colt Espionage narrowly edging out I Am Invincible colt Bodyguard. Espionage did a fantastic job after being caught three-wide without cover throughout here, the only trial winner this morning to be able to do that, while also running slick closing sectionals. Espionage was purchased from the Baramul Stud draft at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, and is out of the smart racemare In Times of War, a daughter of Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner Military Rose.

Bodyguard also impressed, showing a lovely relaxed attitude in the early stages, before taking a gap nicely, and he too will have learned plenty from the experience. He too was purchased at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale, coming out of the Emirates Park draft. He is the first foal of his dam Tumooh, who is an unraced daughter of Group 1 Golden Slipper Stakes winner Mossfun.

Overall it was a very pleasing morning at the trials, and we were delighted to come away with five colts qualified for the Breeders’ Plate. It will now be a case of assessing how they come through this experience in the next ten days with a view to that historic race.

Thanks to Ashlea Brennan for the great photographs.

Sunshine in Paris wows on return at Rosehill, gain slot in $20m Everest

After taking out one of the form races of the Autumn in the Group 1 Surround Stakes, Sunshine in Paris returned this weekend, having been subsequently secured on behalf of John and Deb Camilleri’s Fairway Thoroughbreds at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale. She lined up in a strong edition of the Group 2 Sheraco Stakes, and delivered a devastating performance for trainer Annabel Neasham and jockey Ryan Maloney.

Settled in behind a hot speed, Sunshine in Paris was travelling powerfully into the straight and once pulled into clear running, showed a sparkling turn of foot to put the race to bed in an exceptional class record time of 1:08.80 for the 1200m, not far of the Rosehill track record.

Congratulations to John and Deb, who have a top-class weight-for-age prospect on their hands with Sunshine in Paris, who will now head to the $20m The Everest in October, after her owners came to an agreement with Aquis Farm to run in their slot.

Mexico a class above at Gosford

Mexico, pictured when second to subsequent G1 place-getter Arkansaw Kid in the $500,000 Inglis Banner at Moonee Valley

After a very solid 2YO campaign, which saw him stakes-placed in the $500,000 Inglis Banner at Moonee Valley on debut, Mexico returned today as a 3YO and stamped himself as an exciting prospect with an impressive victory at Gosford.

Settled in behind under jockey James McDonald, Mexico delivered an impressive turn of foot in the short straight to quickly overpower his rivals and win geared down with plenty in hand. This win should provide this speedy colt with plenty of confidence going forward towards the better Spring races.

Mexico was a purchase for the JHB Colt Partnership at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale from the Newgate Farm draft. Many thanks to trainer Michael Freedman and his team, and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Fergus Doyle, Rob Love, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Frances Ingham, Gary Diamond, Jean-Dominique and Rianna Huyn and Murray Shaw.

Mach Ten shows his speed at Newcastle

Exceed and Excel gelding Mach Ten started his career in great fashion, when a brave runner up in the Group 3 Breeders’ Plate at Royal Randwick.

Returning as a 3YO he quickly got himself off the board under a great ride from Keagan Latham. Settling just off the leader, he moved stylishly into contention at the top of the straight and held too many guns for his rivals to win with his ears pricked.

Mach Ten was purchased for the JHB Colt Partnership at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale from the Fernrigg Farm draft

Many thanks to trainer Michael Freedman and his team, and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Fergus Doyle, Rob Love, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Frances Ingham, Gary Diamond, Fernrigg Farm and Tim Scales.

Custodian too good at Kensington

Returning as a gelding this preparation, Custodian was unlucky on his return in Saturday company, and was quick to make amends today at Kensington.

Rated beautifully by Brett Prebble on the speed, Custodian pounced at the top of the straight and was always doing enough to hold off his rivals, winning quite softly on the line and going away again after the post in the manner of a horse who can go right through his grades.

Custodian was Listed placed in the Gothic Stakes at Flemington earlier in his career and is a half-brother to Group 1 winner Profondo, both being out of the very fast mare Honesty Prevails. He was purchased from the Arrowfield Stud draft at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale.

Thanks to trainers Peter and Paul Snowden, jockey Brett Prebble and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Fergus Doyle, Rob Love, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Frances Ingham, Gary Diamond and Arrowfield Stud.

Andronicus powers away at Kembla

Andronicus as a yearling at Segenhoe Stud

After a debut full of promise at Newcastle when getting too far out of his ground, Andronicus confirmed that in no uncertain fashion today at Kembla.

Sitting on pace under Josh Parr, he took a few stride to figure things out, before powering away from his rivals in the final stages to record an impressive victory with top weight.

Andronicus is a son of Champion sire I Am Invincible and is out of Group winner Fireworks, making him a full brother to stakes-winning 2YO Millane. He was bred by John and Deb Camilleri of Fairway Thoroughbreds and was secured for the JHB Colt Partnership at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale from the Segenhoe Stud draft.

Andronicus is an exceptionally good-looking colt and has started his career in lovely fashion. He now heads out for a break and looks a lovely 3YO prospect for the Autumn.

Thanks to jockey Josh Parr, trainers Peter and Paul Snowden and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Fergus Doyle, John & Frances Ingham, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Deb Camilleri, Gary Diamond, Jean-Dominique and Rianna Huynh, and Rob and Sylvie Crabtree.

Dublin makes a winning debut

Dublin pictured as a yearling at Segenhoe Stud

Exceed and Excel gelding Dublin got his career off to the perfect start at Wagga today for trainer Matt Dale and jockey Billy Owen.

He was settled behind the leaders in the early stages, and raced very greenly before knuckling down well in the final 100m to win with his ears pricked against the older horses.

Dublin was a purchase for the JHB Colt Partnership at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale from the Segenhoe Stud draft.

Thanks to jockey Billy Owen, trainer Matt Dale and congratulations to owners Belinda Bateman, Rob Love, Fergus Doyle, John & Frances Ingham, Danny & Pauline Saab, John & Deb Camilleri, Phil & Glenda Mehrten, Gary Diamond, Jean-Dominique and Rianna Huynh and Kevin and Lesley Maloney and Peter O’Brien.

Satin and Silk beats the older horses at Kembla Grange

Belinda Bateman’s homebred filly Satin and Silk showed good speed and determination to win against the older horses at Kembla Grange on Saturday. She began quickly from the outside barrier and settled beautifully just behind the leader before showing a good kick inside the last 100m to gain victory after running second at her last two starts.

Satin and Silk is by I Am Invincible and is the fourth foal and fourth winner from Satin Shoes who was purchased by JHB and De Burgh Equine from the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale for the Bateman family. Satin Shoes was a terrific racehorse wining the Group 2 Silver Slipper and Listed Widden stakes at 2 and she has proven to be just as successful a broodmare with her first foal Satin Slipper by Pierro wining the Listed Gimcrack Stakes on debut and now the dam of the exciting unbeaten colt I Am Unstoppable.

It was a very successful day at Kembla Grange for the Bateman family brand with Kadall (Capitalist x Twirl) and Oakfield Mahogony (Capitalist x Impetuous) both bred and sold by Belinda Bateman also winning their respective races.

Congratulations to all connections and big thanks to trainers Peter and Paul Snowden who have prepared Satin and Silk beautifully and to jockey Mitchell Bell for a great ride.

Greyt Mumma brings up win number 3 at Mornington

Greyt Mumma brought up win number 3 from just 5 starts in impressive fashion at Mornington on Monday. Given a great ride by apprentice Wiremu Pinn she showed her rivals a clean pair of heels in the straight to win comfortably.

Greyt Mumma is raced by her breeder Rob Love who also raced her sire, Capitalist. She is out of JHB broodmare purchase Silver Spirit, who was purchased for $60,000 from the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale in 2019.

This lightly raced and speedy filly looks to have a nice future ahead of her for the Love family. Congratulations to all involved and thanks to trainers Anthony and Sam Freedman.
