Super Saturday for Cambridge Stud sires with Hello Youmzain (Fr) producing a trans-Tasman stakes double with Persian Wonder and Sweetest Thing, while Sword of State sired Warwoven to deliver a knockout blow in the much anticipated Group II ATC Run to the Rose. A Group winner last season at two, the Bjorn Baker trained Warwoven downed a hot field of colts including $2.7million Snitzel colt St Gotthard, read about him here.

Here is the full list of 111 stallions which had winners throughout Australasia today with winners and result details.

An inch-perfect ride from Sam Collett enabled Matamata raider Justin Case to claim the feature event at Hastings on Saturday, the Listed Timberspan Sir Colin Meads Trophy (1200m). The three-year-old son of Banquo had signed off his two-year-old campaign with a gritty fourth place in the Gr.1 Sistema Stakes (1200m) at Ellerslie, off the back of a win in the Gr.3 Matamata Slipper (1200m) on his home track.

Promising filly Sweetest Thing displayed all her fighting qualities when she held out a determined challenge from Platinum La Danse and stablemate Sword of Stars to win the Listed NZB Canterbury Belle Stakes (1200m) at Riccarton on Saturday. The daughter of Cambridge Stud-based shuttle stallion Hello Youmzain was having her first start for trainers Mark Walker and Sam Bergerson after being prepared for her two-year-old campaign by Bergerson’s father, Roydon.

All Too Hard sprinter Losesomewinmore continued his strong affiliation with the Flemington track, recording his second black type victory down the straight by winning the $300,000 G2 VRC Bobbie Lewis Stakes (1200m) on Saturday for Richard and Chantelle Jolly. Successful in the Listed VRC Straight Six (1200m) earlier this year, the Craig Williams ridden 7yo was sent out at double figure odds on Saturday behind boom sprinter, and close relation Oliveanotherday.

Quality Sword Of State colt Warwoven confirmed himself as a leading Group I Golden Rose (1400m) contender with a determined victory in Saturday’s Group II Run To The Rose (1200m) at Rosehill. The Bjorn Baker-trained three-year-old showed the benefit of his first-up outing when ridden positively by Rachel King, settling outside leader Castillo King before producing a sharp turn of foot in the straight.

Resuming on Saturday with a campaign aimed towards the $10m G1 ATC Golden Eagle, Gerald Ryan and Sterling Alexiou’s 4yo Written Tycoon stallion Skyhook justified favouritism with a commanding win in the $300,000 G2 ATC Theo Marks Stakes (1300m) at Rosehill.

After being defeated first-up by Horse of the Year Autumn Glow, Peter Moody and Katherine Coleman’s outstanding mare Sheza Albi bounced back to add a third elite level victory to her record, becoming the first mare to win the time-honoured VRC Makybe Diva Stakes (1600m) at G1 level.

Darley shuttler Too Darn Hot (GB) has sired a lot of good horses and his four year-old son Hotazhell is one of the best and not averse to producing a headline, which he did again overnight when landing his third G1 victory in the Irish Champion Stakes (1m2f) at Leopardstown as a rank outsider.

New Zealand Bloodstock graduate Pondalowie produced a stunning late burst to claim the Group II Let’s Elope Stakes (1400m) at Flemington on Saturday. Sent out a $51 outsider, the Emma-Lee and David Browne-trained mare was ridden patiently by Lachlan Neindorf and appeared to have little chance when still buried away approaching the 200m.
