While Newgate Farm super sire Extreme Choice (Not A Single Doubt) dominated the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale earlier this week, Newgate owner Henry Field was building new relationships with breeders like WA-based Yarradale Stud.

Yarradale Stud resident Shooting To Win sired his first juvenile winner of the season when Dixie Doo nailed Yarradale homebred Hillside Avenue (Pinatubo) right on the line in the Liquor Barons Plate (1200m) on Wednesday.

Yarradale Stud’s Playing God connection came to the fore again on Thursday when Streak Of God won with ears pricked at Bunbury for Grant & Alana Williams and a First Light Racing syndicate.

Soldier Of God continued a winning week for Yarradale Stud and trainer Paul Jordan with a ground-saving victory in the Schweppes Hcp (1000m) at Ascot on Wednesday.

Yarradale Stud topped Book 2 of the Magic Millions with a $190,000 Gingerbread Man colt on a day that also farewelled its Group 1 racehorse and sire War Chant (USA).
