Wonderful article by Mick Channon Jr in today's @anz _news. Responsible for looking after Yes Yes Yes @cwallerracing , Mick discusses the colt's retirement and the effect it has had on him. "..I genuinely feel as though I witnessed brilliance..Just watch The Everest.." #YesYesYes

Yes Yes Yes pictured in the stalls before he conquered The Everest.
His performance on the day was summed up perfectly by his jockey @boss.glen who said, “He had a turn of speed only reserved for very few horses we have seen in the last 20 years. He was incredible... he was going to go and take on the world.” #Coolmoresires #Homeofchampions

In the wake of today’s news surrounding the retirement of Yes Yes Yes, Coolmore and partners would like to express to the whole Chris Waller Racing team our sincere thanks and huge appreciation for an outstanding job done.
Yes Yes Yes’s exhilarating Everest victory will long live in the memory of all who witnessed it and we feel privileged to have been a part of the exciting journey on which this electrifying animal and the dedicated team at Chris Waller Racing took us.
For this talented Gr.2 Todman Stakes-winning two-year-old to have trained on at three to demolish 10 Group One winners in probably the best field of sprinters ever assembled in Australia underlines yet again the extreme professionalism and expertise of Chris and his team, as well as the inspired riding of winning jockeys Blake Shinn and Glen Boss.
As disappointed as we are that this - thankfully minor - injury prevents our being able to show off Yes Yes Yes on the international stage at Royal Ascot in June, it is to Chris and his team, including the horse’s devoted carer Mick Channon Jnr that our thoughts go out. For them a wonderful journey has ended; for us another is just beginning.
Like all at Chris Waller Racing and anyone else ever involved with this son of Rubick, we are certain that Yes Yes Yes takes to his new career at stud credentials that will see him succeed in transmitting to his progeny the same qualities of speed and precocity, allied with a wonderful temperament, that took him to the pinnacle of achievement on the track.
At Coolmore, as at Chris Waller Racing, the welfare of the horses always comes first and Yes Yes Yes can look forward to a healthy and happy stud career in the hands of horsemen equally and absolutely dedicated to his care.
Kind regards,
Tom Magnier

Oaks Potential for So You Think Filly!
Realm of Flowers (3f So You Think x Astral Flower) has a pedigree that screams Oaks contender and her stylish maiden win at Moe yeaterday will no doubt have connections looking at all their classic options for the remainder of the season.
Trained by Anthony Freedman, Realm of Flowers was a short priced favourite for the 1600 metre maiden and rounded up her rivals to win by a commanding three and a half lengths.
A $180,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Arrowfield draft for renowned bloodstock agent James Bester, Realm of Flowers runs for a syndicate that also includes Kia Ora and Robert McClure. So You Think has had a great start to the season with 6 individual Stakes winners in Australia (only Pierro, Snitzel and I Am Invincible have more). #Coolmoresires #Homofchampions
