Aegon gave young training star Andrew Forsman one of the most emotional wins of his career with a freakish Australian debut on Saturday to cap a golden hour for New Zealand racing.
The Cambridge galloper overcame a tardy start to thrash most of Sydney s elite three-year-olds in the A$400,000 Hobartville Stakes at Rosehill just an hour after Matamata mare Probabeel was dazzling in the A$500,000 Futurity at Caulfield.
Probabeel was stunning after sitting three wide the entire race and striding clear at the top of the straight to hold out Arcadia Queen, with the pair now dominating the market for the A$5 million All-Star Mile at The Valley in three weeks.
