Good track brings best out of WS graduate
The Waikato Stud-bred and sold Wairere Falls showed his appreciation this afternoon of a Good 4
surface at Randwick where the son of Savabeel destroyed his Benchmark 78 opposition.
Trained by Chris Waller, the rising 5-year-old travelled easily for jockey James McDonald in fourth

Wairere Falls ambled to the front 300 metres from home and then careered away under a soft ride
to score by 2.6l and the fourth victory of his 20-start career. A further 11 placings emphasises his
genuine racing nature.
He was bought out of Waikato Stud’s draft at New Zealand Bloodstock’s National Yearling Sale by
Albert Bosma’s Go Racing for $280,000.
Wairere Falls is a half-brother to the four-time Group 1 winner and late sire Sacred Falls with their
dam Iguazu’s Girl a half-sister to the G3 Thoroughbred Club S. winner Splashing Out. She is the dam
of the Group 2 winners Splurge and Shopaholic.
