Oh what a night!

November 6, 2021 was certainly a red letter night for the leading NSW Riverina-based stud, Yirribee Pacing Stud.

The resident stallions Tintin In America, Warrawee Needy and Million Dollar Cam sired five feature race winners on the night including three Group successes.

Yirribee Pacing Stud also bred the winners of both Group 2 $50,000 NSW Breeders Challenge True Blue Series for two-year-olds at Menangle in the colt Saint Crusader (1:53.8) and filly Ideal In Dreams (1:55.5) and the winner of the St Arnaud Pacing Cup at Melton in Our Millionaire (1:55).

Tintin In America, who is enjoying a real purple patch, was represented by Teddy Disco, winner of the Group 3 $30,000 QBred for Life at Albion Park in Teddy Disco (1:56.6), Nerano NZ, the winner of the Griffith Cup, the Albury two-year-old winners Tash’s Spartan and Metallica Man and a ‘new’ winner Tennessee Miracle (1:57.7).

Former world champion Warrawee Needy led in two $50,000 Group 2 winners in the brilliant three-year-old Uncle Shank, who captured the inaugural Peak of the Creek Final in a slick 1:53.7 at Albion Park, and Ideal In Dreams.

Million Dollar Cam, the 2020 NSW Sire of the Year, figured as the sire of Our Millionaire, Million Dollar Art (Albury) and the Canadian winner Mighty Mouse.

Tiger Tara, the Inter Dominion champion who is standing this season at Yirribee, was represented by his second winner from three foals in his first crop when the two-year-old filly Tigerlicious swamped her rivals on debut in 2:00 at Penrith.
