Shaggy's barnstorming performance in the $160,000 Pierro Plate came as a shock to some, but not Allan Kehoe and Kooringal Stud's Angus Lamont. The two spoke to The Thoroughbred Report about sire Sandbar's early promise, putting faith in one another, and what's to come for the rising juvenile star.

Skybird was the shock winner of the G1 Black Caviar Lightning on Saturday, and the result brings no one more joy than the team that bred her at HP Thoroughbreds. Co-breeder Kristen Evans related to TTR AusNZ the story of producing one spectacular mare, and the belief they have had in her the whole way.

Dreams do come true: Skybird helps a small farm soar to greater heights

Driven by a vision to elevate Darling View Thoroughbreds to new heights, the team secured Western Australia's premier stallion, Playing God, ahead of the 2020 breeding season. Building on that momentum, they later added Splintex, a blisteringly fast son of Snitzel, to their roster. As the farm prepares to present its first draft under its own banner at the Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale on Thursday, The Thoroughbred Report caught up with Brent Atwell to discuss the journey so far and the excitement ahead.
