AT ONLY his second run this preparation Arlington Road gave Gai Waterhouse her sixth Group I winner at the Randwick Autumn Carnival. He was also the 48th Group I winner for his illfated sire Danehill. In a bold front running performance Arlington Road led all the way to defeat Dash for Cash, who tried hard but couldn't quite get the better of the leader.

Dash for Cash finished second in Gr.I. races at his last four starts - to Yell in the William Reid Stakes, to Lonhro in the George Ryder Stakes, to Grand Armee in the Doncaster Handicap and finally to Arlington Road in the All-Aged Stakes, and  is unlucky not to have gone to the stud with another good win under his belt. His career prize money totals just short of $2 million. Out of a Rubiton mare, this popular horse is to commence stud duty in the coming season at Collingrove Stud in Victoria, and should be well patronised.

The race highlighted a great day for the family of Queensland Oaks winner Denise's Joy, Arlington Road being a three-quarter brother to the dam of Sunday Joy, winner of the Oaks.
