Descarado's Caulfield Cup victory on Saturday led home a fairytale trifecta for New Zealand's Windsor Park Stud.

The Gai Waterhouse-trained Descarado, runner-up Harris Tweed and third placed Monaco Consul were all conceived at the stud, with Descarado and Monaco Consul born there.

High Chaparral sired that pair, while Montjeu is Harris Tweed's father.

The two sires were Irish Derby winners who shuttled to New Zealand under a deal with Ireland's Coolmore Stud. Both are six time Group One winners and rank among the greats of the turf.

Montjeu is based in Ireland while High Chaparral still shuttles down under, but Coolmore has based him in NSW this breeding season rather than New Zealand.

He stood at Windsor Park for three seasons, the last of them in 2009.

"It's a fantastic result for the stud having stood both of the sires and especially for our clients who have got High Chaparral yearlings going to the sales," co-owner Rodney Schick said.

"The two sires have had a huge influence on our breeding industry."

High Chaparral sired the trifecta of the AJC Derby in Sydney in April with Shoot Out beating Descarado and Monaco Consul.

That trio and Harris Tweed are all headed towards the Melbourne Cup on November 2, while another Windsor Park graduate, So You Think, will defend his Cox Plate crown at Moonee Valley on Saturday before a possible tilt at the Cup.

"Might and Power won a Cox Plate and a Melbourne Cup, and So You Think is a similar running horse to him and is bred to get the 3200 metres, so he should be a great show if he races in the Cup," Schick said.

Schick remembers Descarado well. The colt was withdrawn from the national yearling sales because he needed a minor operation on a stifle and stayed at the stud until he was two.

He entered Kevin Myers' Wanganui stable and impressed in running second in the Wellington Guineas and was then eighth in the Two Thousand Guineas in 2008 before being sold to the Waterhouse stable in Sydney for a substantial six-figure sum.

"He was a really nice horse and did not look like an early racing type, so Dummy (Myers) did a great job with him," Schick said.

"He looked like he would turn out to be really good stayer."

Harris Tweed is owned by his breeder Phil Bayly and trained by Murray and Bjorn Baker in New Zealand while Monaco Consul, who won the Victoria Derby last year, was bred by Windsor Park and is trained in Melbourne by Mike Moroney.

Champion New Zealand sire Zabeel sired the 1999 Caulfield Cup trifecta of Sky Heights, Laebeel and Inaflury.
