Hawkesbury -- In the listed Hawkesbury Rush victory went to the Redoutes Choice colt, Glenall.Trainer Michael Hawkes said ''being back in familiar surroundings played a key role in Glenall’s first black type triumph after a Melbourne campaign''.“It’s just a change of environment back to Sydney, the horse has always had ability, he’s always shown that. “He’s a Redoute’s Choice so we’ve always tried to chase the black-type and the Group races with him. It was a great ride. ”Brenton took the bull by the horns and jumped him out and put him in a nice position. He helped him balance and really get the best out of him,”
The Hawkesbury Cup Group 3 was won by Kingsguard. While the Guineas was won by the Fastnet Rock gelding Sambro trained by Chris Waller out of the Encosta De Lago, mare Eau De Joie.
At Morphetville in the group 3 Breeders Stakes. The Stratum gelding, Tequila Time became the 39th stakes winner for the son of Redoutes Choice, which includes 14 black type winners since he died. His Group One victors have been Takedown, Stratum Star and Miss Wilson, who captured the New Zealand Thoroughbred Breeders Stakes earlier this month. Tequila Time is out of the Encosta De Lago mare, El Milagro. Runner up was by another of Redoutes sons, Not a Single Doubt called Fundamentalist. Widden Stud, which stood Stratum throughout his illustrious career, will be hoping that the dual Group One winning, Stratum Star, can follow in his dads steps after joining the roster last spring and covering 116 mares. Race caller Terry McAuliffe is a member of the Beer and Skittles group which part owns the speedy youngster . Tequila Time held on gamely where it counted and “lick, sip, suck it’s Tequila Time” was Tery's call as he crossed the line.Trainer, Leon Macdonald was impressed with the performance. Macdonald has saddled up many a Group One winner in the past Gold Guru, Rebel Raider and Umrum among them and he now has another shining star .
