Sheikh Mohammed Obaid Al Maktoum's TDN Rising Star Bow Echo (Night Of Thunder) was a perfect two-for-two heading into Saturday's G2 Tattersalls Online Royal Lodge Stakes at Newmarket and emerged with his unbeaten record intact after dominating his rivals in the one-mile test. “He does look like the best colt we've had at this stage,” said trainer George Boughey. “I loved his attitude today, it's the thing that's stood out from the beginning and it was nice to see him get it done. He's always been easy to train and he's git that turn of foot which he showed today. I wanted to see him relax and follow the right horse. Billy [Loughnane] gave him a very mature ride and possibly, by his own admission, committed a half-furlong too soon.” Finding cover in fifth after breaking from the stands' side stall, this month's Listed Ascendant Stakes winner made smooth headway to gain an edge passing the quarter-mile marker and was not for catching on the rise to the line, stopping the clock with a one-length advantage from long-time leader Humidity (Ulysses). Aidan O'Brien trainee Action (Frankel) fared best of the remainder and finished a half-length back in third. Pedigree Notes Bow Echo is the second of three foals and lone scorer produced by a multiple-winning half-sister to dual Group 1-placed G3 Brigadier Gerard Stakes winner Royal Rhyme (Lope De Vega), Height Of Fashion Stakes victrix Victoria Harbour (Frankel) and G2 May Hill Stakes third Zabeel Queen (Frankel). The March-foaled homebred bay's stakes-placed second dam Dubai Queen (Kingmambo) is a half-sister to five black-type performers headed by multiple Group 1-winning sire Dubawi (Dubai Millennium). Bow Echo is half to a yearling colt by Starspangledbanner.

Smart four-year-old Evaporate bounced back from a setback to win Saturday’s Gr.3 Sandown Stakes (1500m) in gallant fashion, defeating favourite Transatlantic by a nose. Lumping 59kgs and racing three-wide early in the piece, jockey Blake Shinn threw the map out of the window and elected to roll forward and dictate the running on the son of Per Incanto, who ran out a deserved winner. Trainers Ben, Will and JD Hayes will now target the Gr.1 Toorak Handicap (1600m) with the gelding who finished fifth in the Gr.2 P.B Lawrence Stakes (1400m) when resuming in August before a minor virus interrupted his planned tilt at last week’s Gr.1 Sir Rupert Clarke Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield. Ben Hayes breathed a sigh of relief after the bold tactics from shinn, greeting him with ‘Well done, Blake; I’m glad you won.’ “It was a very good effort by the horse, he had a mid-prep setback and he had a nice trial and to make a mid-race move like Blake did and hold on like he did with top weight just adds more merit to the win,” Hayes said. “I am glad he won, he made the right move and the horse won so full credit to Blake. He’s a very exciting horse like we’ve always thought and I think he’s put his hand up to running in the Toorak and be very competitive. “He’s had a long time between runs and he’s come out here and beaten a very good horse to his inside there who’s rock hard fit. I’m very proud of the horse and the ownership group, they’re a great group and I think we’re going to have a lot more fun with this horse going forward.” Blake Shinn once again showed why he is one of the best, using his initiative after Evaporate was slightly over-racing early. “Evaporate is an interesting horse, he is a bold-going horse and he is a bit arrogant,” Shinn said. “The speed map had El Rocko and Transatlantic going forward, but the pace wasn’t that fast, so there was an opportunity for me to creep forward and get the front. I just have a lot of trust in this horse, he is a very good horse on his day as we know. “Yes he had a break between runs, but I know how he likes to be ridden, you can’t fight him, you have to go with him, and that was the play we called on the fly and thankfully we got it right.” Already a Group Two winner, Evaporate has now had 16 starts for six wins, five placings and A$1,591,726 in stakes. He was bred by Little Avondale Stud, home to Per Incanto, a son of Street Cry who has sired nine Group One winners and 33 stakes winners to date. The dam of Evaporate is the unraced Animal Kingdom mare Savanna, whose half-sister Belluci Babe, also by Per Incanto, was a Group Three winner for Bjorn Baker. Evaporate was bought by Lindsay Park Racing for A$330,000 at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale in 2023. View the full article -

Saturday’s Howden Insurance Mile (1600m) at Te Rapa took Waitak (NZ) (Proisir) past the million-dollar barrier and added another triumphant chapter to his unique Group One record. The $400,000 weight-for-age showpiece was Waitak’s 12th appearance at Group One level. Those dozen races have been spread across his two, three, four, five and now six-year-old seasons, and they have ranged from 1200m all the way up to 2400m. Before Saturday, Waitak’s career highlight came with his stunning burst from the back of the field to win the Gr.1 Sistema Railway (1200m) in January of 2024, backed up by highly creditable performances to finish third in the Gr.1 Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes (1400m), fourth in the Gr.1 BCD Group Sprint (1400m), and fifth in the Gr.1 New Zealand Derby (2400m) and Gr.1 Tarzino Trophy (1400m). The Proisir gelding also completed a feature autumn double earlier this year in the Gr.2 Japan Trophy (1600m) and Gr.2 Awapuni Gold Cup (2100m). But if Saturday’s superb come-from-behind defeat of five other Group One winners is anything to go by, there could still be much more to be written about Waitak. “This is amazing,” said Andrew Scott, who trains in partnership with Lance O’Sullivan. “It’s great for the horse and great for Team Devine (owner Jill Devine, whose late husband Colin bred Waitak). “The team has been so confident with this horse all week. He galloped the house down on Wednesday morning and he’s just kept improving. “It’s all about getting him to relax and settle in his races. When he does that, he’s got such a wicked turn of foot. “He’s been very lightly raced and has just turned six. We said at the start of the season that this will be his best year. Not a lot has really gone his way in the last couple of years. Hopefully he can get the momentum going now. “He’s just such a wonderful racehorse. To win two Group One weight-for-age races is amazing. He’s a marvel for our stable and a pleasure to train. He’s just a star.” Waitak never saw daylight when he resumed with a luckless 11th in the Gr.1 Proisir Plate (1400m) at Ellerslie earlier this month. If he was going to turn his luck around in the Howden Insurance Mile at Te Rapa on Saturday, he would have to do it from the extreme outside gate in a 14-horse field. But jockey Craig Grylls rode a patient race, giving Waitak time to find his feet and settle into a smooth rhythm in fifth-last position. The favourite La Crique (NZ) (Vadamos) went for gold at the top of the home straight, bursting to the lead with a powerful kick. She quickly went two and three lengths clear of nearest rivals Sterling Express (NZ) (Shamexpress) and Legarto (NZ) (Proisir). But then Grylls unleashed Waitak. He roared down the outside, devouring La Crique’s advantage and sailing past her in the final few strides. Waitak went on to win by half a length, with La Crique second and Ladies Man (NZ) (Zed) an eye-catching third ahead of Sterling Express and Legarto. Waitak delivered a third win in the race for Grylls, who had previously been successful aboard Pure Champion (Footstepsinthesand) (2014) and La Crique (2022). Those three wins have come at three different venues, with Pure Champion winning at Hastings, La Crique at Matamata and Waitak at Te Rapa. “I won this race in the same colours with Pure Champion 11 years ago, so it’s great to do it again,” Grylls said. “I’m really grateful to Lance and Andrew for putting me on the horse. “He was luckless last time, but we got a perfect run today from the outside gate. There was good speed on and we worked into the race at the right time. “He had a horse to chase in La Crique. I was pretty confident from about 100m out that we’d pick her up, because he had all the momentum. “He’s a good horse. He’s shown that over the years, and today has just cemented that again.” Scott confirmed that Waitak will now be set for the Gr.1 Livamol Classic (2040m) at Ellerslie on October 18. “These were the races we set him for when we brought him up for the spring,” he said. “Hopefully, with a bit more improvement from his second-up run today, he’ll be competitive again in the next one. But for now we’ll just celebrate this win. It’s an amazing result.” Waitak’s 33-start career has now produced seven wins, nine placings and $1.2 million in stakes. Incredibly, the Howden Insurance Mile was La Crique’s eighth runner-up finish in a Group One race and her sixth in a row. “It’s a little bit frustrating, but at least we’ve won Group One races with her as well,” co-trainer Katrina Alexander said. “It would be much worse if we were getting all these placings without having won one. “We’re proud of her. She’s ultra-consistent and always delivers. She’s never let us down. “We have tentative plans to fly her to Sydney next weekend to target the Hill Stakes (Gr.2, 1900m) at Rosehill. We think the conditions and distance of that race will suit her, and it would be great for her connections (owner-breeders John and Jan Cassin) if she could put her foot in the till in good company in Australia.” The Hill Stakes will be run for a stake of A$2 million on October 11.

Beiwacht winning the Group 1 Golden Rose at Rosehill. (Photo: Bradleyphotos.com.au) Beiwacht turned the Group 1 Golden Rose (1400m) into a one-act affair, jumping, rolling, and never coming back to the field as he ripped through 1400m in a track-record 1:20.79 on Saturday at Rosehill. From barrier two, Adam Hyeronimus held the rail, upped the tempo when they straightened, and the colt powered clear to beat stablemate Wodeton with Tempted a close third. The margin was a tick over four lengths — emphatic on the clock and to the eye. The win delivered Chris Waller a fourth Golden Rose and, notably, his first Group 1 in Godolphin blue after the colt transferred stables this winter. “Godolphin has been an amazing story for Australia,” Waller said. “We had four great colts in the race and unfortunately there is only one winner. “He did a great job Adam… they’ve run time as well. It was Hyeronimus’ fifth Group 1, earned with ice-cold pace judgement at the head of affairs. Race shape was decisive. Beiwacht led at an even gallop, kept the revs high from the 600m, and broke them late — the classic Rosehill 1400m put to ruthless use. Tempted, the $3 favourite with horse racing bookmakers, enjoyed a sweet run but couldn’t bridge the gap as Beiwacht kept extending; Wodeton nabbed the filly for second in the final strides, sealing a Waller quinella and underlining the depth of the yard’s three-year-old brigade. 2025 Group 1 Golden Rose Replay – Beiwacht https://horsebetting.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Rosehill-2025-Group-1-Golden-Rose-27092025-Beiwacht-Chris-Waller-Adam-Hyeronimus.mp4 Horse racing news View the full article
