Widden Stud Victoria have three stallions on the roster this spring to all sire 100 plus winners in Star Witness, Nicconi and Magnus, who ended his season on a high with a metropolitan treble on Saturday.
Magnus had Mr Pickwick and Mahamedeis salute at Moonee Valley, while at Randwick five year-old gelding Ashman took out the $100,000 Midway Handicap for the Kim Waugh stable.
Ashman was having his second run for new trainer Kim Waugh and took his prizemoney soaring past $200,000 when leading all the way to win the 1300m contest by a length and a half.
Three year-old Mr Pickwick is a homebred for Olly Tait and the Patrick Payne trained gelding scored a surprise front running win, leading all the way to win over 2040m by a length and a half and has now won over $100,000.
Trained by Nick Ryan, six year-old gelding Mahamedeis has been a prolific winner for Magnus throughout his career. He posted his 12th win from 50 starts when saluting over 2040m and has won over $1.1million in prizemoney.
Magnus has ended the season with 119 winners of over $7.3 million in prizemoney and stands this spring at a fee of $15,400.
