Sires Produce Stakes

The 2011 AJC Sires Produce Stakes nominations were taken last week with 112 two-year-olds making up the early entries for the juvenile feature that will take place at Randwick Racecourse on Australian Derby Day Saturday April 9, 2011.

Highest-rated entry for this year’s $500,000 Group 1 AJC Sires Produce Stakes (1400m) is Peter Snowden’s unbeaten Elusive Quality colt Sepoy.

Last start Sepoy stormed home to claim a devastating 4 ½ length win in the $1 million Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m) at Caulfield on February 26.

The win, his fourth from as many starts, saw Sepoy installed as the raging favourite to win the 2011 Golden Slipper on April 2 at Rosehill, which is the richest race for two-year-olds in the world.

Other Notable 2011 AJC Sires Produce Stakes Nominations Include:

Karuta Queen – Unbeaten filly and second-favourite in the Golden Slipper odds, won the $2 million Gold Coast Magic Millions 2YO Classic last start
