Sully who won last time out, made a very good running 4th in the Group 3 Gloaming Stakes at Rosehill, Sydney. 1800 meter and big step up in competition.
After the winter break, Lilas came back in good form, when winning the Geeloong RC Shojun Concrete Maiden over 1300 m in Australia. She has been planned to run in the Australien Oaks since her first run, looks to be a very interesting filly.

Quote from Westbury Stud´s Facebook
"Huge win by the Reliable Man gelding Sully at Bendigo today as he came from near last - ducked in sharply with 200m to run - and still got up and won!
Trained by Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young, Sully was the only 3YO in the race and showed an excellent turn-of-foot from the 500m to the line.
While he is very green, the raw talent is evident and he looks to have a bright future!"
Ernesto came bursting from last to 2nd place in the hot Auction race in Dusseldorf today. 52.000 € in price money and run over 1400 meter only.
This was only his second start and the turn of foot he showned was fantastic. A tricky track for this big horse. Bred by Gestut Röttgen and trained by Markus Klug. Well done to all connections.

Main Stage, took easily home the Kilmore TC Core Projects maiden in Australia. The gelding won by 1.5 lenght,over 1600 meter, in a field of 11.
This NZ bred horse had previously only raced twice being 3rd and latest 2nd.
Trianed by T Busuttin & N. Young.
NARELLA (IRE), f, 2, Reliable Man (GB)–Naomia (Ger) (SW-Ger), by Monsun (Ger).
O/B-Gestut Rottgen (IRE); T-Markus Klug; J-Adrie de Vries. €32,000. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, €35,000.
Becoming the first black-type winner for her first-season sire, Narella built on the promise of her debut win at Cologne July 9 to maintain her unbeaten record with authority. Settled towards the rear early, the 7-2 second favourite was delivered wide in the straight by Adrie de Vries and after taking over approaching the furlong pole drew away in style to beat Auenperle (Ger) (Areion {Ger}) by two lengths, with the 17-10 market leader Julio (Ger) (Exceed and Excel {Aus}) four lengths back in third.
