There was carnage for punters at Happy Valley on Wednesday night, with not one favourite saluting and the season’s longest-priced winner headlining a string of blowout results. Team Team Folks caused the biggest upset of the season so far when defying his $83.5 quote to win the second section of the Class Four Fat Tseung Handicap (1,200m). After failing to fire on three starts for Michael Chang Chun-wai last term, the son of Super Seth struck on his first start for new trainer Jimmy Ting Koon-ho...View the full article -

by Dane McLeod/TTR AusNZ Sanxiong Gao of China made a strong first impression at Karaka, teaming up with Lindsay Park who were bidding on his behalf to secure the top two lots on Day 1 of the NZB Ready to Run Sale for a combined figure of NZ$1,425,000 (A$1,233,913). The day's top-priced horse was lot 214, a powerful bay colt by the in-form and in-demand Per Incanto from the draft of Kiltannon Stables, who sold for NZ$750,000 (A$649,518). He was originally a NZ$300,000 (A$259,807) purchase by AP Chan from the Cambridge Stud draft at this year's NZB Karaka National Yearling Sale. The colt is out of a Aleria (Fastnet Rock) sister to Group 2-placed Thorondor. Aleria has already produced two winners, including War Eternal (Pierro), a five-time winner and multiple group performer who also ran fourth in the G1 Randwick Guineas. Earlier in the session, lot 105 proved a cracking result for Riversley Park and co-owner Mick Guerin. The Satono Aladdin colt out of Shezdelicious (Atlante) was purchased earlier this year for NZ$130,000 (A$112,569) from the Landsdowne Park draft at the NZB Karaka National Yearling Sale and sold for NZ$675,000 (A$568,907) on Wednesday. The stylish colt breezed up in :10.55 seconds and was the subject of a spirited bidding duel before the Lindsay Park team, acting for Mr Gao, prevailed. By Rich Hill Stud's outstanding sire Satono Aladdin, the colt boasts a strong pedigree, being out of a winning half-sister to dual Group 1 winner Madison County (Pins) and Detonator Jack (Jakkalberry), an A$1.6 million earner and Group 1 placegetter in the South Australian Derby. “I wasn't actually coming to the sale as Ka Ying Rising is trialling on Friday, and he [Mr Gao] asked if I could come down and help him pick a few horses that might be suitable for Hong Kong one day,” said David Hayes. “I asked him what his budget was and he said, 'Try and find the ones you like – don't worry about the budget.' “With the help of Dean Hawthorne, we've been shopping around – Josh Rix and JD (Hayes) as well. The plan is these horses will go back to Lindsay Park, as Ka Ying did, and the most suitable one will probably go to Hong Kong, while the other will likely race with the boys in Australia.” The aggregate for Day 1 was NZ$19,232,000, up from 2024's figure of NZ$18,547,000. The median of NZ$120,000 represented an increase from the NZ$100,000 median recorded in 2024. The average of NZ$161,613 marked a slight decrease from last year's mark of NZ$173,336. The clearance rate was the same as 2024 at 65%.
