When she won the Group 1 $75,000 NSW Trotters Derby at Menangle the brilliant Aldebaran Eagle filly Rockinwithattitude became only the fourth filly ever to complete the coveted NSW Trotters Derby-Oaks double.
The Derby success came only one week after she captured the Group 1 $75,000 NSW Trotters Oaks with the Aldebaran Park bred and part-owned Aldebaran Miley third.
Rockinwithattitude, the 2022 Australian and Victorian 2YO Trotting Filly of the Year, has now won 11 of her 16 starts and $211,750 in stakes. She has been invited to race in the Group 1 $150,000.00 Great Square at The Creek in Queensland on July 8, 2023.

Aldebaran Eagle was also represented by recent winners in the very smart three-year-old colt Aldebaran Jensen (ex Endsino), a winner in 1:56.9 at Menangle in New South Wales, the three-year-old filly Dichotomy and Aldebaran Boyd (ex Aldebaran Revenue). Aldebaran Jensen and Aldebaran Boyd were both bred by Aldebaran Park.
Resident sire Skyvalley left eight individual winners for the month and has jumped into fifth position on the All Aged sire list.
Recent Skyvalley winners were the two-year-olds Rocky Valley and Dead Set Crazy, the three-year-old Kyvalley Amanda (Tr 3, 1:58.9, two wins), the 1:58 Menangle victor Flash Kyvalley, Sellune and a trio of Aldebaran Park breds in Aldebaran Misty (ex Mason Magic), Aldebaran Gwen (ex Aspenglow USA) and Aldebaran Sundown (ex Aldebaran Sunset NZ).
Skyvalley also figured as the damsire of the Victorian winners Lady Adelia and Kivici.
Aldebaran Park bred seven individual winners in May. They are Aldebaran Brooke (ex Excellent Boko Swe) in Victoria, Aldebaran Misty in Queensland, Aldebaran Gwen in South Australia, Aldebaran Boyd in Victoria, Aldebaran Sundown in Western Australia, Aldebaran Jensen in New South Wales and the pacer Major Noah William in New South Wales.
