Hussonet’s 2nd Stakeswinner in 3 Days
Autumn is proving a profitable time for Arrowfield Stud’s highly proven Mr. Prospector stallion Hussonet with the sire recording two new individual stakeswinners in the space of three days.
After the Bart Cummings-trained Latin News $150,000 Listed Gosford Guineas win last Thursday (April 22) Hussonet’s success continued on Saturday on the final day of the Sydney Autumn Carnival at Randwick where 5yo gelding Ego’s Dare became his sire’s 6th stakeswinner so far this season when capturing the Travel The World Hall Mark Stakes (LR) over 1200m running 1.08.79, the last 600 in an even 34 seconds.
A $250,000 acquisition by trainer Gerald Ryan out of the Bellerive Stud draft at the 2006 Magic Million Sale, Ego’s Dare has now won 3 of his 6 starts this season adding victories at Rosehill and Randwick in the Spring to a stakesplacing late last year, also at Randwick, in the Razor Sharp Handicap. Bred by the Arrowfield Group in partnership with Gainsborough Stud, Ego’s Dare is the 4th live foal and first stakewinner from the Seattle Slew mare Almond Essence.
