Coolmore Australia’s Pride Of Dubai continued his sensational season as a stallion at Doomben, where his daughter Bella Nipotina earned another major victory in the Group 1 Doomben 10,000.

Ridden by Craig Williams, the six-year-old mare came to the outside of I Wish I Win, with the pair driving to the winning post almost in unison. 

Now a two-time Group 1 winner, having won the Manikato Stakes in 2022, Bella Nipotina now sits just shy of $10 million in career prize money. 

Trainers Leon and Troy Corstens sent their two-year-old Bittercreek north to contest the Group 2 Spirit Of Boom Classic at Doomben, a decision that paid dividends after the colt turned in an impressive performance under jockey Blake Shinn.
