Shinn held him together till the top of the rise and Sebring did the rest, letting down to defeat Samantha Miss by one length. "He is such a professional," said Blake Shinn. "He did all the work up front on a very heavy track, yet was far too tough in the run to the line. Nothing fazes him he is so relaxed and such a cool customer. I can't wait till next Saturday!" The colt will return to Randwick on Saturday for his third run in three weeks when he lines up in the Group 1 1600m Champagne Stakes. A win will ensure Sebring becomes just the sixth horse in history to complete the elusive Triple Crown. Sebring, unbeaten in five starts, was purchased by Denise Martin for $143,000 (inc GST) at the 2007 Magic Millions Sale and has now won a sensational $2,451,560 in prizemoney         CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNING OWNERS: (pictured above) James Hazzisevastos, Team Henderson Racing Syndicate - David and Luke Henderson, Shahen Mekertichian, Margaret Butler, John and Anne McDonnell, Denise Dunphy, Brian Leonard, Joseph Screnci, Wendy Mullens.                                        SEBRING SCORES SENSATIONAL VICTORY IN THE 2008 GROUP 1 AAMI G0LDEN SLIPPER!    THE DAY WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER                                    All Race Photo's Courtesy of Bradley Photographers 02 4868 1433   Denise Martin enjoyed her greatest race success to date, when her handsome chestnut colt SEBRING crossed the line a well deserved winner in the 2008 Group 1 AAMI GOLDEN SLIPPER. The Star Thoroughbreds SEBRING owners enjoyed a day they will remember for a lifetime.     With regular jockey Blake Shinn on the suspended list Glen Boss scored the coveted ride. After missing the start and settling well back the colt was quickly sent forward by Boss along the fence, eventually settling three back in the running line. He travelled sweetly into the turn and all he needed on straightening was a clear run. Half way up the straight the gap appeared and SEBRING did the rest, sprinting quickly to dash through and grab Group 1 winning honours in the world's greatest 2 year old race!      Sebring, unbeaten in four starts, was purchased by Denise Martin for $143,000 (inc GST) at the 2007 Magic Millions Sale and has now won an amazing  $2,178,800 in prizemoney.           CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNING OWNERS:  James Hazzisevastos, Team Henderson Racing Syndicate - David and Luke Henderson, Shahen Mekertichian, Margaret Butler, John and Anne McDonnell, Denise Dunphy, Brian Leonard, Joseph Screnci, Wendy Mullens.                           Star Thoroughbreds owners, Shahen Mekertichian and Wendy and Aubrey Mullens race Golden Slipper candidate Sebring together. When Sebring's owners met for the first time Shahen and the Mullens family learned that they are not only Manly residents, but live in the same street! The odds of that happening are certainly longer than that of Sebring's in the Golden Slipper.                    THE BEST TRAINER AND  THE BEST JOCKEYS   Nash Rawiller             &             Blake Shinn   GIVING OUR STAR OWNERS WINNERS GALORE!                   Established by Denise Martin in 1994, premier syndication company Star Thoroughbreds exclusively offers high quality horses in racing partnerships, all personally selected and trained by HALL OF FAME trainer Gai Waterhouse at her world famous "Tulloch Lodge" Randwick stables in Sydney, Australia.
