Saturday, 19 September 2009: It's not often full-brothers salute on the same day, but that was the case at Caulfield today, with Rightfully Yours followed by Group 1 winner Heart Of Dreams in a notable black type double.

The
Show A Heart 
brothers are from the Royal Academy mare Academy Of Dreams.
Owner/breeder Larry Bartle is clearly of the opinion that Show A Heart is the perfect partner for the mare – and why not!
Academy Of Dreams has been to Show A Heart in each of the past six seasons, with
Rightfully Yours being the oldest of those.
The now five-year-old was denied a stakes success when losing the Listed Prime Minister's Cup on protest through the winter, but made amends with his first up win today.
He is now the winner of eight races and more than $300,000 in prizemoney.
However, he has to play second fiddle to his younger brother
Heart Of Dreams in the family pecking order.
The now four-year-old gelding landed his second Group 1 victory when taking today's G1 Underwood Stakes. It followed his success in the G1 Australian Guineas earlier in the year.
Heart Of Dreams' record now stands at five wins for earnings of more than $900,000, with the promise of more to come after defeating a stellar field today.
Heart Of Dreams is the lone Group 1 winner to date for Glenlogan Park's Show A Heart (Brave Warrior).
Academy Of Dreams missed to Show A Heart last year, but produced colts in each of 2006, 2007 and 2008.
