Harry Angel has started the new year in flying form siring big winners on Saturday 4, January in both hemispheres.
First to strike was his Australian-bred three-year-old son Private Harry who took his unbeaten run to four starts in the valuable TAB Sunlight. Taking the AUD$ 1.2 million first prize he strode clear in the straight to win easily.

Later in the day, his European-bred first-crop son Uncle won his first Stakes race when taking the Listed King Faisal Cup. Run over a mile on dirt, the Peter Ridges-bred gelding was previously trained by Richard Hannon and was winning his fourth race in Saudi Arabia.
What a result for @alareen_racing!
