Daisy Hill Stud

2010 Melbourne Cup winner Americain (USA) has fallen from favour as a commercial sire, but he featured at Rosehill on Saturday when his handy stayer Costello scored a lucrative win in the $500,000 ATC Rosehill Gold Cup (2000m).

Melbourne Cup hero Americain (USA) was represented by his first stakes winner in Australia when apprentice Kayla Crowther guided the Shane Oxlade-trained mare Eperdument to a hard-fought win in Saturday’s Group III Medallion Lord Reims Stakes (2600m) at Morphettville.
