New Winner for Rubick

Tara Madgwick - Friday Aug 16
Coolmore's promising young sire Rubick added a 19th first crop winner to his tally with an easy Ipswich victory on Friday for Leshrac.

RubickTrained by Matthew Dunn, Leshrac was favorutie for the 1200 metre maiden and scored by three-quarters of a length at his second run back from a spell.

Retained to race by his breeder, Leshrac is the second winner from Flying Spur mare Fine Cuban, a half-sister to the dam of stakes-winners Havana and Diplomatico.

Leshrac is the fourth winner this season for Rubick, who has lightly raced colt Excess Funds contesting the Group III MRC Vain Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday.
