Pippy’s first look around at Royal Randwick

Our Farnan filly, Pippy, has absolutely excelled through her first stage of education at the breakers – passing with flying colours and leaving a lasting impression every step of the way.
This week, she stepped into the next phase of her journey at Snowden Racing at Randwick, where she took part in what Peter Snowden calls “orientation week.” This crucial stage introduces young horses to the full racing stable environment – giving them exposure to everything they will experience once they enter full training as a 2YO.
And Pippy? She handled it like a seasoned professional.
Peter Snowden was thrilled with her progress, noting her forward, confident attitude and her eagerness to take on every new challenge. It is exactly what you want to see in a young filly with big potential.
During her time in orientation, Pippy was treated just like a racehorse – immersed in the full routine of a busy Sydney stable. From early morning track work to the sand roll, walkers, and the energy of a busy Group 1-winning operation, she took it all in stride and never missed a beat.
We want to be very clear about one thing – we are aiming high with this filly. The target? The iconic Golden Slipper in 2027.
It is a race Peter Snowden knows how to win (he has done so on two occasions), and one her sire, Farnan, famously claimed in 2020. The pedigree, the attitude, the early signs – they are all there.
Even more exciting, Pippy is our first-ever one-off payment opportunity. For just a single upfront payment of $185.00, you can be part of her journey from the very beginning.
The response has been phenomenal – she’s already our most popular yearling purchase EVER, with shares flying out the door faster than we can keep up.
Don’t miss your chance to be involved in something truly special.

Don Valiente heads to Warwick Farm next Wednesday

Off the back of an impressive debut at Gosford on March 14th, Don Valiente returns to the races this Wednesday at Warwick Farm – and there is plenty to be excited about.
Despite being caught wide on the turn, he powered home to finish third on debut, producing a run full of merit and clear promise. It was the kind of performance that suggests a win is well within reach as he gains more race experience.
The team at Michael Freedman Racing have been delighted with how he has come through that first-up run and have him primed to go again this week. With natural improvement and race experience on his side, he looks set to take another step forward at Warwick Farm.

The team at Newington Farm is very happy with Diesel
There is an exciting update regarding our latest purchase, “Diesel,” and where he is currently enjoying the next phase of his journey.
The 2026 Golden Slipper winner Guest House (by Home Affairs) was broken in and educated at Newington Farm – the very same facility where our Better Than Ready colt will soon begin his education. It is a fantastic endorsement of the environment and expertise Diesel now finds himself in.
Diesel (Better Than Ready x Futureal, yearling colt) has now spent two weeks at Newington Farm following his purchase at the Magic Millions March Sale. As you will hear in the update above, he is a happy, healthy horse who has settled in exceptionally well. He is eating everything put in front of him and continues to thrive – exactly what you hope to see in the early stages after a sale.
He will commence his breaking-in phase very shortly, and shares in Diesel will be available even sooner.
The voice featured in the update is one many of you will recognise – Kacy Fogden. Kacy owns and manages Newington Farm alongside her partner, Julian Blaxland. Both are highly respected within the industry. Kacy herself enjoyed a very successful training career, including preparing Champion 2YO Best of Bordeaux (Snitzel).
The hard work is done. The final 5% remains.

Jake has come through his gelding process in great fashion and is thriving. He is healthy, happy, and showing all the right signs for what is to come. Currently spelling at Kingshaven Farm in Victoria, he is in expert hands, with the team confident that this valuable time will allow him to strengthen and mature both physically and mentally following two faultless 2YO preparations. Everything about his progression points to a horse with exciting upside.
Meanwhile, the powerhouse stable of Price Kent Racing has once again proven why they are among the very best, delivering a sensational result in the 2026 Golden Slipper Stakes with their star colt GUEST HOUSE – the richest 2YO race in the world. To have a horse like Jake under their care places him in elite company, with a team that consistently develops talent into top-level performers.
Jake is by the ever-improving sire Graff, who continues to outperform expectations with winners right across the country. His progeny are tough, competitive, and built to win – highlighted by standout colt GRAFTERBURNERS, who was sent out favourite in last weekend’s Group 1 Galaxy before an unfortunate late scratching at the barriers. It is a clear sign of the class Graff is producing.
Adding further momentum, Graff’s recent metropolitan winner ‘Bargain Boy’ showcased the same grit and determination at Morphettville, another strong example of the consistency and quality flowing through this sire line. You can view the race replay below.
With only a final 5% remaining, this is a rare opportunity to secure your place in a progressive, well-bred gelding with everything going for him – a top-tier stable, a proven and rising sire, and a development path that is been handled to perfection.
Opportunities like this don’t last – get involved in Jake before he takes the next step towards his race career.

Axel, our impressive Cool Aza Beel (NZ) colt, continues to tick every box at the breakers. He is progressed to confidently going through the gates, enjoying the swimming pool, working in company around the track, and doing it all with remarkable calm composure, and maturity.
Set to be trained by the Group 1-winning duo Chris and Corey Munce, Axel is following in the footsteps of the exceptional Group 1-winning 2YO, Cool Archie.
