Inglis Easter Sale 2022, Lot 106.
Snitzel x Chanteline (USA).
Purchase Price - $575,000.
Rob and Mark were successful in securing Lot 106 for $575,000 from the draft of Newgate Farm.
He is a lovely athletic colt by Champion sire SNITZEL from the US G3 winner CHANTELINE.
CHANTELINE was a speed machine winning at 1000-1200m at Keeneland and Saratoga, premier tracks in the US. SNITZEL has crossed particularly well with Us mares and has numerous Stakes winners including G1 winners from this type of cross.
He was a colt that paraded very well each time we looked at him. He was a Grade 1 scope and low risk x-rays.
This is a colt that we are delighted to secure in a very hot market. That concludes purchases for the PR colts Fund for 2022 at a total outlay of $1,949,000. This figure is 20% under the original budget and we are delighted with all five colts.
This SNITZEL colt will travel overnight to Noorilim for a short break before heading to Rob Palm next week to commence his breaking in.
Magic Millions Gold Coast Lot 248.
Written Tycoon x Maybe Markle
Purchase Price - $280,000.
This is a very athletic colt, compact medium size, attractive with a great temperament.
He is a 3/4 brother to G3 winner TRUMP from the immediate family of multiple G1 winner FLITTER. This colt has returned to Noorilim Park after being broken-in. Rob has noted that he is a natural colt who moves very well and does things easily. He is an attractive colt by Champion sire WRITTEN TYTCOON who continues to churn out high class performers each season. This colt is very much in the mould of the best go them.
Magic Millions Gold Coast Lot 528.
Zoustar x Sin Sin Sin
Purchase Price - $800,000.
This attractive athletic colt is a half brother to Everest winner YES YES YES. By leading sire ZOUSTAR this is a pedigree that has great depth to it.
We thought he was one of the colts of the sale and we did not believe
that we would be able to secure him for anything less than $1M. He is a loose moving colt with a great attitude. This colt has returned to Noorilim Park for a spell after completing his breaking-in with Rob Palm. Rob described him as "a natural athletic who is keen to learn and who is just a natural. He has a lovely stride and a great attitude". Breeder Brett Bradley stayed in for 15% of this colt so the exposure to the fund is $680,000.
Inglis Classic Sale Sydney Lot 298.
Capitalist x Terrifying.
Purchase Price - $180,000.
This attractive colt was bred by Stu Ramsay at Turranga Farm. He has a lot more scope than most Capitalist colts and is a very relaxed athletic horse with plenty of style.
At the sales he displayed a lovely relaxed attitude and was professional in all that he does. He is currently having a spell at Noorilim and will head to Rob Palm next month. CAPITALIST is proving to be one of the most popular sires in Australia this colt was the pick of the sale for us.
Inglis Premier Sale Melbourne. Lot 319.
Capitalist x Wind On Tide.
Purchase Price - $260,000.
This athletic colt was one of the very best physicals at the sale. He has great presence about him and is very athletic.
He has a great top line and deep girth, good shoulder and strong quarters. We did not expect to be able to buy him as we valued him at around the $500K level so were delighted to get him at the price. Interestingly 40% of the Stakes winners for CAPITALIST are bred on the Capitalist x Snitzel cross that is the feature of this colt's pedigree. The colt is currently enjoying a spell before heading to the breakers next month.
