 ASTON VILLA The Queen of the Lauriston Broodmare Band had a night to remember at Tabcorp Park Melton on Saturday January 26. Her superstar son Poster Boy won the Group 1 Bonanza in a career best time of 1.52.8. Poster Boy sat in the one/one position and pulled out at the top of the straight to defeat Spankem and Duke Of Wellington. He was first up since August 25 2018 and won the unwinnable Group1 against seasoned opposition. A massive effort by a quality horse trained to perfection by Emma Stewart and Clayton Tonkin and driven a treat by Chris Alford. 
Poster Boy has earned a place in the Chariots Of Fire at Menangle as a result of this win. 
His imposing record now stands at 23 starts 16 wins 6 placings and earnings of $539,990. including 4 GROUP 1 Victories. 
On the same program Born To Rocknroll ( Rocknroll Hanover ) won his heat of the Rising Stars Pace leading all the way in 1.56.8.  The 6 year old was a leading juvenile prior to an injury which resulted in extensive rehabilitation and two and a half years away from the track.
Now trained by Emma Stewart , Buddy has had 4 starts this season for 4 wins. He has been driven by Sidney Van Den Brande . His career of 28 starts 14 wins and 10 placings and $224,854 is indicative of this horses true ability. 
Yankee Rockstar ( Rocknroll Hanover )  also won the 4 year old Bonanza enroute to the Chariots of Fire. 
Aston Villa has a yearling colt by Bettors Delight and a full brother to Poster Boy at foot.
