Sebring Moves to Second
Another big weekend of racing for our red hot young sire Sebring has seen him move to second on the Australian General Sires List with ill-fated Northern Meteor and Stratum also holding down places in the Top 10.
With outstanding Group I winners on successive Saturdays at Randwick in Criterion and Dissident, Sebring is riding high as we move towards the end of the season.
Retired to stud following his triumph in the Group I ATC All Aged Stakes, Dissident is now one of the leading contenders to be crowned Australian Horse of the Year – click here to read this Breednet story.
