Wednesday double for The United States

26th March 2026

Moutonshoek’s red hot sire The United States struck again at the mid-week meeting, when the son of Galileo supplied two winners, from just three runners, at Hollywoodbets Durbanville on Wednesday.

The United States’ first success on Wednesday came when his Ricky Maingard trained daughter Red State won the Race Coast Incentives Powered By Hollywoodbets D Stakes (1800m). Under Varun Jodhee, the four-year-old filly ran on strongly from off the pace, to get up and win by a length.
Bred by Moutonshoek, Red State is owned by Messrs D K Bundhoo & Ricky Maingard & Mrs M M M Bundhoo.
Out of the Mambo In Seattle mare Always Red, Red State has won two of her last four starts.

The United States’ second success on Wednesday came when his son Prairie Dawn ran out a convincing winner of the seventh and final race. The Justin Snaith trained three-year-old appeared unlikely to get a clear run in the Hollywoodbets Bright Future Class 4 (1600m) but dug down deep to get up and win by a neck.
Bred by Dr Thomson, Prairie Dawn has won two of six starts and has been unplaced just once.
Owned by Nick Jonsson, the gelding is out of the Miesque’s Approval mare Break Of Dawn.

 

The United States is having a wonderful season in 2025-2026, with his flagbearers including such G1 winners as Kingdundee (World Pool Cape Flying Championship) and Tin Pan Alley (Wilgerbosdrift HF Oppenheimer Horse Chestnut Stakes).
The United States looks poised for further big race success in the coming days. Kingdundee looks to be a leading player in the upcoming G1 TAB Computaform Sprint, while daughter Teo Torriatte is a runner in the Listed Wilgerbosdrift Caradoc Gold Cup. Another son of The United States, Texas Red, is due to contest the G2 TAB Hawaii Stakes with The United States filly Rodeo Drive a contender for the G1 TAB Empress Club Stakes.
