King’s Legacy Debut 2YO Winner

Tara Madgwick - Saturday Jun 20

With no metropolitan juvenile race in Sydney on Saturday the maiden event at Kembla attracted a strong field and the winner was impressive first starter Hostwin King, a good looking colt by King’s Legacy.

Trained by Tommy Wong, Hostwin King had placed in his two previous trials and loomed into contention with 150m to run and went right on with the job.

He powered to the line for Louis Beuzelian to take the 1000m dash by a length running away.

A $210,000 Inglis Classic purchase from Eureka Stud for J Tam, Hostwin King was the highest priced yearling colt by King’s Legacy sold in 2025.

Hostwin King was a $210,000 Inglis Classic yearling purchase.

He is the third winner from three foals to race from stakes-placed Northern Meteor mare Prada Miss.

With 35 Australian winners this season including the stakes-winner Regeneration and four more stakes performers, King’s Legacy is in the Top 5 leading second crop sires by winners.
