Caulfield Guineas winner Gods Own is enjoying a purple patch of winners and he kept the tally rising at Cranbourne on Friday when Heavenly Dawn (4 m Gods Own - Shanghai Dawn, by King Of Kings) proved one length too good for Boredom (Ad Valorem) in the $12,000 Dowling Dirtworks 0-62 Hcp (2025m).
Trained locally by Greg Eurell, Heavenly Dawn has been very consistent and was making it two wins on end yesterday.
Gods Own had four winners in the past week and in the last fortnight has had winners in Australia, Singapore and Manila.For the month of December Gods Own has had 11 winners alone in Australia.
Last Friday night at Canterbury Park in Sydney, Godwilling (4 g Gods Own - Millrich, by Millionaire) won the $27,000 ATC Noble One Handicap (1100m) to make it two wins from three starts and this Kris Lees trained galloper is looking full of promise.

Game mare Mrs. Bently (Euclase - Truepenny, by True Statement) won six races at Moonee Valley during her 83-start career so it was no surprise to see her consistent son Bel Sir (Bel Esprit - Mrs. Bently, by Euclase) score at the same venue on Friday night.
Mrs. Bentley was a confirmed Moonee Valley specialist during her racing days, which yielded more than $380,000 in prizemoney. Bel Sir took his first steps in his mother’s footsteps with his win in the Sistema Plastics Handicap (2040m).
The son of Eliza Park resident Bel Esprit (Royal Academy - Bespoken, by Vain) led all the way to win the $50,000 race by 2-1/2 lengths at his first race at the tricky Melbourne venue.
Meanwhile, another Eliza Park Stud resident, God’s Own (Redoute’s Choice - Angel In Disguise, by Sky Chase) kept his outstanding run going when Godwilling (God’s Own - Millrich, by Rubiton won the Noble One Handicap (1100m) at Canterbury.
Godwilling’s success was the sire’s eighth individual victory in the first half of December. Godwilling is also a half-brother to the former handy sprinter, now emerging young sire, Danerich (Danehill - Millrich, by Rubiton).

Eliza Park Stud resident God’s Own (Redoute’s Choice - Angel In Disguise, Sky Chase) has continued his outstanding start to December with a midweek treble with winners at Sale and Eagle Farm.
God’s Own, who stands at Eliza Park Stud in conjunction with Yallambee Stud, has produced five individual winners in the first week of December with four of those successes coming in his home state.
Heavenly Dawn (God’s Own - Shanghai Dawn, by King Of Kings) started God’s Own’s roll with a win at Sunday’s Cranbourne fixture before the Mathew Ellerton and Simon Zahra-trained Godliness (God’s Own - All The Rave, by Forest Glow) won in stylish fashion at Kyneton on Tuesday.
God’s Own produced the first two winners of Wednesday’s Sale fixture. The Robbie Griffiths-trained Maker’s Marque (God’s Own - Fraarie, by Fraar) raced away to win the AVG Valves Maiden Plate (1200m) comfortably before Bartholomew (God’s Own - Harrow, by Dehere) broke through in the Aztec Master Flash Maiden (1500m).
Bartholomew is a half-brother to the talented Mark Kavanagh-trained sprinter We’re Gonna Rock (Fastnet Rock - Harrow, by Dehere). Newhaven Park will offer a sister to We’re Gonna Rock and a half-sister to Bartholomew as Lot 18 of next month’s Jupiter’s Magic Millions Sale on the Gold Coast.
Sons Of God (God’s Own - Lucky Punch, by Celtic Swing) completed God’s Own’s treble when the Robert Heathcote-trained four-year-old won the Racing Retro Handicap (1200m) at Eagle Farm.

Pentire’s hot form continued when Connacht (Pentire - Darine, by Dahar) scored a comfortable win in the Bundaberg Distilling Company Class 3 Handicap (2200m).

Eliza Park Stud stallions were in fine form in the southern areas of Australia on Sunday after they compiled a trio of winners at the Victorian and Tasmanian meetings.
Bel Esprit (Royal Academy - Bespoken, by Vain) led the way with a winning double. Navillus Superman (Bel Esprit - Sharna Cabarna, by Dolphin Street) finished strongly to claim the TAB Sportsbet $2 Million Bonus Handicap (1000m) at Cranbourne before Cleaver (Bel Esprit - Mill Lady, by Straight Strike) took out the $22,500 Jack Maher Classic (1200m) at Wodonga.
God’s Own (Redoute’s Choice - Angel In Disguise, by Sky Chase) earned a two-year-old success when Father Ned (God’s Own - Ornamented, by Gilded Time) posted his second win in the Oamps Handicap (1220m) at Launceston.
Father Ned is the fifth foal out of Ornamented (Gilded Time - Princess Carrie, by Lightning Orphan) to race; the gelding kept his dam’s perfect breeding record intact with his win earlier in the season.
Bel Esprit will stand for $27,500 for the 2011 breeding season.
Meanwhile, Arrowfield Stud sires produced an international double with wins in Australia and Singapore on Sunday.
The Patinack Farm-owned Renewed Vitality (Redoute’s Choice - Real Pzazz, by Green Desert) completed the local half of Arrowfield’s double with his success in the David Dwyer Bookmaker Maiden Plate (1000m).
Starcraft (Soviet Star - Flying Floozie, by Pompeii Court) three-year-old El Perigo (Starcraft - Patronella, by Mister C) posted his second win in a row in an 1800-metre Class 4 at Kranji.
El Perigo is a half-brother to stakes winners Stella Artois and Smytzer’s Trish (both Geiger Counter - Patronella, by Mister C).

Canonized (Gods Own) made an impressive winning debut at Cranbourne yesterday. Trained on course by Michael Kent, the colt coped with the the slow track and, after racing just off the pace throughout, forged clear over the final 200m to score impressively.
Canonized is out of the stakes winning Grand Lodge mare, Rather Grand, a half sister to Moonee Valley stakes winner Sublimity, and was bred by St Arnaud’s favourite son and long-term Yallambee Stud client, John Richards.
This continues a good run of success for God’s Own iwith his second crop of 2yo’s. Already the sire of four winners and seven placegetters from this crop including stakes placed Vatican and city performers Father Ned, Miss Holyfield, Homedge, San Jose and Manor Lady.
God’s Own stands at Eliza Park in conjunction with Yallambee Stud.
