Yirribee Pacing Stud’s resident stallion Million Dollar Cam was named as the 2018/19 NSW Sire of the Year at the industry Awards Night last Saturday. He left 44 individual winners and progeny earnings of $687,000.
Million Dollar Cam was represented by four winners last week including Alimonie, who streeted his rivals in the Reward Series Final at Newcastle in a career-best 1:56.8.
Our Millionaire (1:59.2, Ballarat), who was bred and raised by Yirribee, Whatta Conk (1:57.9, Penrith) and Summer Money (1:59.9, Tamworth) were other recent winners sired by Million Dollar Cam.
The Yirribee Stud stallions Tintin In America, Caribbean Blaster and Lombo Pocket Watch all led in winners during the week. The Tintin In America mare Lady Sharnae NZ won at her Australian debut at Tamworth, the Yirribee bred four-year-old Cambo Blaster (by Caribbean Blaster) won his second race in 1:59.2 at Bathurst, while Willem (by Lombo Pocket Watch) was a most impressive winner in 1:57.2 at Shepparton.
Million Dollar Cam, Tintin In America, Caribbean Blaster and Lombo Pocket Watch are part of an imposing Yirribee Pacing Stud sire roster for the upcoming season. They are joined by Australasian champions Lazarus and Lennytheshark and the revered North American duo, Warrawee Needy and Fear The Dragon.
