TECHFORM’S TOP 5 1 Arkansaw Kid 100 6 Inkaruna 98 2 Grand Larceny 97 5 Pallaton 96 10 La Fracas 96 ALWAYS WELCOME Always Welcome, an Australian-bred son of Seventh Hussar, was foaled in 1973, a consistent stakes-winning sprinter whose six Group level victories included the VRC Linlithgow Stakes and Coolmore Stud Stakes (at that time the Craven A Stakes) at Flemington, the Caulfield Futurity (beating So Called) and the Randwick All-Aged Stakes. Twice runner-up in the VRC Newmarket, and second in the Epsom, the Doncaster and the Epsom at Randwick, Always Welcome had the misfortune of competing against such champions as Maybe Mahal, Luskin Star and Manikato. He was trained by Bernie Byrnes from the old Big Stable at Inglis’s Newmarket property at Randwick. SEVENTH HUSSAR (FR) - WELCOME BACK
