Sydney, November 16 – The powerful David Hayes stable was seen to advantage at Rosehill on Saturday winning the restricted event over 1400 metres with O’Reilly five year-old Jedburgh, a $60,000 purchase from the Yarraman Park draft at the 2005 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale.
Third at his previous start at Rosehill in a similar race, Jedburgh obviously took benefit from the experience improving sufficiently to score by a neck in taking his record to three wins and five placings from 17 starts with earnings in excess of $86,000.
Jedburgh is a half-brother to Group One MRC Caulfield Guineas winner Econsul being from the Group One placed Centaine mare Gypsy Soul.
A sterling producer before her premature death in 2006, Gypsy Soul has had five foals to race all winners.
Yarraman Park will start the 2009 yearling sale season with a 25 strong draft for Magic Millions in January.
