Since we last updated following the conclusion of the autumn carnival some our runners have continued to progress. Kroner won again in convincing style at Randwick last Saturday making it three wins from his last four starts for him. His only recent failure was when extended to 1400m. Equally convincing and in some commentators eyes more so, was the debut win by 2yo So You Think at Rosehill just a few days before Kroner. By Epsom Derby winner High Chaparral, and in the mould of a stayer himself, So You Think has gone straight out to his part owners property Think Big Stud to rest before what is hopefully a good spring campaign for him as a 3yo. Prince Arthur gets ever closer to another stakes win with a close third in the Lord Mayors Cup Listed, following a close up fourth in the Wagga Cup Listed. Prince Arthur will run in this weekends’ McKell Cup Listed before a taking up stud duties at Think Big Stud in the Spring. Think Money also ticked over nicely with a fifth in the Doomben Roses Gr3 for this weekends Gr1 Queensland Oaks where she has a decent barrier for once in gate 3. On the breeding front clients were pleased to see Sacred Kingdom post a sensational time of 1:07.8 when winning the Kris Flyer Gr1. Bell View Park Stud purchased a close relative last year who has since had a foal. Their value will be further enhanced if Sacred Kingdom performs well at Royal Ascot which was indicated as his next assignment.
