Two from the team representing Wexford at the Big E this afternoon! 🏇

ARDROBELLE (Joe Doyle, barrier 5) will line up in race 3 at 1.45pm. A well promising filly, she's shown good levels of ability at the trials. On debut, she's out to get important experience around Ellerslie. The way she's trained, she should run well in what looks to be a hot maiden.

MOSINVADER (pictured) (Matt Cartwright, barrier 6) will line up in race 6 at 3.28pm. Improving with racing, he had no luck last start. With better fortune in the run, he can be right in the finish on a track he races well on.

Our hearts are broken.

While no longer in the care of Wexford, the loss of Ohope Wins is felt deeply throughout the Wexford family tonight.

She was a star for us on the track and an absolute sweetheart off it.

Following a racing incident at Caulfield, she was attended to swiftly by the on-course veterinary team. Despite all efforts, she could not be saved.

Our thoughts are with the Gartshores, Yulong and Waller Racing, along with all those who loved and cared for this beautiful mare.

She was so deeply loved, and her loss will be felt by many.

Rest peacefully now, Ohope. You were brave, beautiful, one of a kind 💛

Three fillies will be flying the flag for Wexford in the Gr.2 Soliloquy Stakes at Ellerslie today 🏇

POUNCE (pictured) (Craig Grylls, barrier 15) will line up in the fillies feature at 4.24pm. Back on her favourite track today, you can forget her last run. She’s coping well with the prep, is a stakes winner on the track and it wouldn’t surprise us to see her bounce back into the Winner’s Circle.

DASHING DIXIE (Joe Doyle, barrier 9) will also line up in the Group 2 event. A filly that continues to improve and raise the bar, we're looking forward to seeing her step out over the 1400m for the first time today. She's worked up to her usual high standards this week and should be very competitive.

FIAMMA (Masa Hashizume, barrier 2) will be one of three Wexford fillies lining up in the Gr.2 Soliloquy Stakes. A promising filly, stepping up to stakes level for the first time, she was purchased with these races always in mind. She's proven at the 1400m trip, the blinkers go on today and she's got the talent to be competitive in a strong lineup of fillies.

All three fillies were purchased and syndicated as yearlings by team Wexford, and we're thrilled to see them chasing stakes success so early in their careers. Wishing all three syndicates the very best of luck!

55 seconds of Waitak, our five-time Group 1 winner, enjoying a little quiet away from the hype of raceday.

Waitak to many, George to us, and a very special horse who is just as magnificent away from the spotlight as he is in it 💛

SAJA races up to her looks and wins on debut! 🔥

What a start from this 3YO filly. A huge congratulations to Warren and Claire Bolton on the perfect start from your girl today.

Saja was ridden by Craig Grylls and strapped by Brandon Holliday.

SAJA makes the perfect start! A win on debut for this smart 3YO filly 💥

We're off and racing at Racing Tauranga this afternoon! 🏇

SAJA (Craig Grylls, barrier 9) will line up in race 2 at 1.07pm. She has been putting it all together at the trials and has worked well leading into today. She’ll parade looking a picture and has shown plenty of ability along the way. It’s a tricky draw for her debut, but expect her to be charging late.

LE FLEUR (Corentin Berge, barrier 3) will line up in race 3 at 1.39pm. A promising staying filly by the in form Ace High, she’s drawn well and looks one to keep firmly on the radar. Whatever she achieves on debut, there’s plenty more to come and we believe she has a bright future ahead.

THE DARZI (Masa Hashizume, barrier 1) will line up in race 6 at 3.23pm. He steps up in distance, which looks a positive for this fit gelding. He’s been racing consistently well throughout the prep and, with a touch of improvement, he won’t be far away from being a winner.

SWEET BUT PSYCHO (pictured) (Michael McNab, barrier 10) will line up in race 7 at 3.58pm. She can't buy a barrier, but she looks a picture of health and continues to improve as her prep deepens. If ever a horse deserved a win, it would be her.

CRACKERCOL (Warren Kennedy, barrier 10) will line up in race 9 at 5.09pm. He continues to build fitness with each run, and while today’s trip may be a touch short of his ideal, this outing should bring him on nicely.

The Wexford War Horse does it again 💛

WAITAK takes out the Gr.1 Livamol Classic at Hawkes Bay Racing, with Craig Grylls in the saddle.

He becomes the just second horse in the race’s history to do the double-double, taking out the 2025 & 2026 Gr.1 Howden Insurance Mile and 2025 & 2026 Gr.1 Livamol Classic.

Champion status stuff, George ⭐️

Our deepest congratulations to the Devine family on yet another winning result from your star. We couldn’t be prouder.
