Three year old geldings Dandy Gent and Magnazone each recorded their maiden win on the back of two good riding performances.
Terry O'Sullivan said neither was more impressive than the other and that both horses have a bright future ahead of them.
Magnazone was the first of the two to claim victory in the Stockdale and Leggo Port Fairy Three Year Old Maiden Plate.
Magnazone was having his third start and was slow out of the gates.
With Jack Hill in the saddle, Magnazone flashed home to grab victory in the last stride from Bank Street.
O'Sullivan will push Magnazone out a bit further at his next start, which will be at Flemington this Saturday.
"He went to the line well," O'Sullivan said.
"He was looking for a bit for ground so we will give him that."
O'Sullivan was full of praise for Hill's ride and will be hoping he can do the job again on Saturday.
Dandy Gent provided O'Sullivan with the winning double taking out the Hyland Sportswear Maiden Plate.
Much like Magnazone the three year old hit the line strongly to win by a length.
Dandy Gent is a full brother to stable star Happy As Hell and looks to be on the right track to a similar career.
"He is shaping up well," O'Sullivan said.
"Happy had his maiden win and then won at Caulfield. We will send Dandy Gent to Seymour and hope he gets the job done."
Linda Meech was in the saddle and stuck to the game plan.
"He wants a bit more distance so there wasn't much early speed," O'Sullivan said.
Dandy Gent will step up in distance at Seymour and the O'Sullivan stables will be expecting big things.
O'Sullivan was happy with the performances of his younger horses and is excited by their future.
