Bart Cummings did it again when he chalked up the 253rd Group One of his illustrious career when new stable acquisition Russeting won the Winter Stakes at Eagle Farm.

Russeting, who was having her first start for Cummings, also gave winning jockey Michael Cahill the fifth Group One of his career when the four-year-old downed Prime Nova, who is trained by Cummings' son Anthony, by three-quarters of a length in the 1400-metre feature.

Fellow Sydney mare Subtle Cove was a length away third.

Russeting did most of her racing with Toowoomba trainer Don Baker before she was sold for $300,000 at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale at the Gold Coast earlier this month.

Russeting, a daughter of Commands, gave her new owner Bell View Park Stud syndicate which is managed by Adam Mackrell a quick return on their outlay when she collected the first prize cheque of $320,000.

Cummings was not trackside to witness Russeting's victory but said from Sydney he would discuss the mare's future with her new owners before deciding when she'll go to stud.

"She's a lovely mare and I'll discuss it with her owners first but she may go to stud and be served before going to Melbourne to run in some of the fillies and mares races," Cummings said.

Cummings, who was at Randwick, said he was glad Russeting broke through for the stable's first winner in Brisbane this winter.

"If she hadn't won, it would have been the first time in 50 years that I hadn't trained a winner during the Brisbane carnival," he said.

Cumming's stable foreman Reg Fleming knew from the first day Russeting joined the stable that she had a bright future.

"She cost $300,000 but that's not much now," Fleming said.

"The first time I saw her gallop I rang Bart and told him this was a machine.

"I thought the clock was wrong when I first galloped her. She's bombproof.

"It's been a terrific year for the stable but we haven't had much luck with the team in Brisbane with all the rain."

Cahill, who returned from a short riding stint in Singapore earlier this year, has had great success with Cummings over the years.

"Bart and Reg have been long-time supporters of mine," Cahill said.

"I rode quite a lot for Bart when he had a satellite stable in Brisbane in 2001."

Cahill was always confident of success in the Winter Stakes after Russeting travelled kindly.

"She was always going well and had the run of the race and sprinted too quick for them," Cahill said.

Connections of Prima Nova said the four-year-old would likely race on next season and hopefully end her career with a Group One victory in the spring.
