WINALOT

ARDROSSAN was owned by Waikato Stud and trained by Stephen Marsh with a record of 4 wins and 2 thirds in 9 starts. He remained unbeaten in 2 starts including listed contest at age 2, then he stayed under Mick Price’s yard in 3 Australian attempts but no success. He claimed 2 victories when return to New Zealand including 1200M G3 Concorde Handicap by racing handy, then finished 3rd in 1400M G1 Waikato Sprint that denied by top-class mare MELODY BELLE. He made his way to Australia on his last attempt and finished 3rd in 1200M G3 Star Kingdom Stakes on heavy ground. The son of REDOUTE'S CHOICE retired from racing due to injuries and stands at Waikato Stud since 2019 with 8 black type contest winners. His fee in 2025 is NZD$ 20,000. WINALOT was sold at NZD$ 150,000 as a yearling finished 200M breeze up run in 10.56s before eventually being withdrawn from the 2YO sale. He was trained by John Bell in New Zealand and took part in 2 barrier trials. On his first trial over 850M (27th May, 2025), he shared lead early and quickened well at turn to win on heavy ground, then ran on for 3rd in an 800M section (9th Jun 2025) on soft going. His dam VENETIAN RAIDER recorded 9 wins from 1000M to 1150M while his full-brother WISEMAN collected 1 third in 11 starts in HK up to written date. The bay gelding should be a sprinter that capable of handling soft going.
