Ziggy Showcases Staying Potential With Canberra Win
Oct 29, 2025Stepping up to 2000 metres for the first time proved no obstacle for striking grey mare Ziggy Rose, who produced a tenacious performance to score at Canberra on Friday. The four year old daughter of D'Argento showed both stamina and grit to claim the Maiden/Class 1 Plate (2000m), storming home from last in a stirring finish to notch her maiden victory. Having her fourth run this preparation, Ziggy Rose was sent out on the third line of betting in the nine-horse field. After beginning a touch awkwardly, she was allowed to find her rhythm at the rear, travelling kindly off a genuine tempo. Regular rider Shaun Guymer — aboard for all of her runs this campaign — elected to track the heavily supported favourite Little Lunch (John Sargent) into the race, but when that runner failed to quicken on the turn, Guymer was forced to chart a wide course. Despite covering extra ground, Ziggy Rose let down powerfully in the straight, sustaining a long run to nail Liyah’s Girl (Matthew Smith) right on the line in a determined last-to-first effort. “She had to do it the hard way today,” Guymer said post-race. “The favourite didn’t take us into it like I’d hoped, but she was tough and really found the line. She’s an exciting staying prospect.” Trainer Danielle Seib was equally pleased with the breakthrough win. “It was great to see her tick the 2000-metre box today,” Seib said. “That opens up a lot of options for her going forward.” By D’Argento — the Group 1 Rosehill Guineas winner and son of the great So You Think — Ziggy Rose hails from Zoffany Rose, a three-time winner over staying trips (2200–2400m). Pedigree and performance alike suggest she’s only now beginning to hit her straps over ground. Congratulations to her winning ownership group: Mr S Aitken, Wegotenuff Syndicate, Mr T Corby, Mr P G McGrath, Ms R Sloan, Mr G Seto, Mr K J Thurkettle, Mr P G Zaninovich, Mr R N Morison and Mr N A Ethell.
Double Delight At Moruya's Showcase Meeting
Oct 7, 2025Pictured: Ziggy Rose with connections after Friday's win. The Champion silks were twice in the winner's circle at Moruya's showcase meeting on Friday, with two progressive mares shedding their maiden tags in determined fashion. Kicking off the day in style was Ziggy Rose, the four-year-old daughter of D’Argento who put her pre-race quirks aside to deliver a gutsy victory in the 1650m Maiden. A known handful behind the barriers, the mare showed signs of improvement thanks to some clever adjustments from jockey Shaun Guymer, who partnered her to an encouraging third at her previous start. After a bit of coaxing from the barrier attendants—and a few cheers from behind—Ziggy Rose eventually loaded in and jumped cleanly from gate five. She landed in the box seat, travelled sweetly, and was produced at the top of the straight to challenge the leader. When Elite Delight (Adelaide) loomed alongside, Guymer pulled the stick through to the right and Ziggy Rose responded gamely, digging deep to prevail by a narrow margin of 0.2 lengths. It was a tough effort from the mare, backing up just eight days after her last start and stepping sharply from 1300m to 1650m—a testament to her growing maturity and the team’s horsemanship. Congratulations to her ownership group: Ms D. L. Seib, Mr S. Aitken, Wegotenuff, Mr T. Corby, Mr P. G. McGrath, Ms R. Sloan, Mr G. Seto, Mr K. J. Thurkettle, Mr P. G. Zaninovich, Mr R. N. Morison, and Mr N. A. Ethell.Holy Hell taking out the $50,000 Super Maiden Three races later, the stable was back in the winner’s stall when Holy Hell edged out her stablemate Sacred Inferno in a thrilling finish to the $50,000 Super Maiden (1200m). The four-year-old Hellbent mare was ridden confidently by John Kissick, who had her settled perfectly one-out, one-back off a genuine tempo. When the field fanned turning for home, Holy Hell quickened smartly and engaged in a stride-for-stride battle with Sacred Inferno, prevailing by the barest of margins on the line. Her winning time was notably quicker than the day’s Benchmark 58 over the same trip—a testament to her raw ability. “The stable have always had a nice opinion of this mare,” trainer Danielle Seib said post-race. “Her owners have been patient—she’s taken a bit of time to mature—but it’s great to see that patience rewarded with a strong first-up performance.” Congratulations to her connections: Dalanna Bloodstock, J. E. Abrahams Pty Ltd, and Mr D. Maratta.
Plenty of Talent on Show at Murtoa
Oct 5, 2025Having just his second start for the Tony and Calvin McEvoy stable, promising three-year-old Talent Scout lived right up to his name with a convincing maiden victory in the CHS Construction Maiden Plate (1600m) at Murtoa on Saturday. After a string of jump outs and trials, the son of Bivouac made his debut over 1300m at Echuca on September 20, finishing a sound third under Linda Meech, who retained the ride for the Murtoa assignment. Meech had the gelding perfectly placed in the box seat throughout and was poised to pounce when the leader went for home at the 400-metre mark. The $2.20 favourite responded stylishly, taking control inside the final furlong to draw clear for a decisive 2¼-length victory over Jotopeli ($8.50), with Nikephoros ($31) another six lengths adrift in third. While still learning his craft, Meech believes the lightly raced galloper has the makings of a genuine staying prospect. “He did everything pretty right today but he’s still a work in progress,” Meech said.“He wanted to get away from the horse outside him instead of really focusing on the job, but to still win like that was a good effort.“He’s got ability, just lacks a bit of strength at the moment — he’s more like a two-year-old mentally — but he’ll keep improving. I think he’s going to mature into a nice staying type.” A $50,000 purchase from Blue Gum Farm’s draft at the 2024 Inglis Premier Sale, Talent Scout is the second foal out of the winning Reset mare Star Creation, a half-sister to Group 3 winner Galaxy Pegasus. His sire Bivouac continues to make headlines, with the Darley stallion posting his first Group 1 winner just a week earlier when Beichwat took out the Golden Rose for Chris Waller and Godolphin, propelling him to the top of the Second Season Sires’ standings.
