The pressure is on Shogun Lodge and Referral's half-brother Onarohl to continue his family's winning tradition at Doomben on Wednesday.

Onarohl, who lines up in the Lyndhurst Stud Maiden Handicap (1660m), put the writing on the wall that he's close to a breakthrough win with a last-start second to Wabeel in a 1640-metre maiden at Doomben on February 9.

The Bryan Guy-trained Wabeel franked the form by scoring impressively at Eagle Farm last Saturday and will now be aimed at the Group One Queensland Oaks (2400m) at Eagle Farm during the winter in preference to an AJC Oaks campaign in Sydney.

Onarohl's dam Pride Of Tahnee has been a great producer at stud with 10 of her 11 named foals all winners.

Onarohl is the only one of her offspring yet to win but trainer Brian Smith is confident the son of Lonhro will maintain the family's success on the racetrack.

Smith only took over training Onarohl at the start of his current campaign after the entire started his career with Gold Coast trainer Maryann Thexton.

"He had an accident and was injured when he was younger," Smith said.

"The form around him is good with Wabeel winning again last Saturday.

"He ran on well last start but I think he still needs further.

"This is a nice race for him and I've got him going better now but I'm sure he'll be even better next campaign."

Smith has few peers as a trainer of stayers but is also renowned for his ability with tried horses.

He's in no doubt Onarohl will never measure up to his older siblings such as Shogun Lodge, Referral and Singing The Blues but is confident he'll be competitive in Brisbane's easier grade.

Shogun Lodge, a son of Grand Lodge, was the joint top galloper on the 2000-2001 Australasian four-year-old and over classification.

Trained by Sydney's Bob Thomsen, Shogun Lodge started 58 times for 13 wins and 20 placings with career earnings of $4.6 million.

He ran in 31 Group One races for three wins, in the 1999 George Main Stakes, 2000 Epsom Handicap and 2001 Queen Elizabeth Stakes, while he was runner up in another 12 Group Ones.

Referral, a son of Dr. Grace, won nine times in his career up to 1600 metres including the Group One George Ryder Stakes at Rosehill in 1999.

Referral was also placed behind Sunline and Diatribe in the Cox Plate in 2000.

Singing the Blues, by Bluebird, won 11 times in his short career of 20 starts including the 1998 Oakleigh Plate after which he started twice more before breaking down.
