The win of Gil Favor at Methven on Sunday credited small-time sire Waterloo Sunset with his first winner.

Part-owner and trainer Paul Nairn mixed racing and stallion duties with the son of Sundon back in the spring of 2014, serving four mares with his semen.

Two got in foal, Gil Favor being one and the other a filly out of Nairn’s former handy mare Day Of Reckoning.

Waterloo Sunset also has a two-year-old and two yearlings on the ground, all bred and owned by Nairn.
