This filly really embodies why we try to look at every horse in a sale. On inspection, Jack noted “Strong, Balanced, Confident, Solid, Walks well, Fast, Plenty of bone. Good depth of hip, Forward going... Big Like!”
As a type, she looks like the Zoustars and Exceed And Excels of the world - the kind of filly who can excel at 2 years old. We shouldn't have to wait too long for her to come to hand.
She gave us every reason to bid on her with confidence and looked super value when knocked down for just $35,000 + gst.
Following a post-sales spell, she breezed through the breaking-in stage, explored all the tracks that Hawkesbury has to offer and was introduced to the barriers.
Since then, she had a further spell and is already up to pace work in her second preparation!
We are hopeful that she will show enough precocity to make into a nice pre-Christmas 2yo, and will give herself every chance of returning to the Gold Coast next year for the Magic Millions 2yo race series, for which she has been nominated.
She is also Bobs Bonus Eligible, further boosting earning potential!
This filly steps out of the box and makes you go “WOW!” She is physically imposing, strong bodied, has a great depth of girth and a powerhouse of a back end on her! She walked well and with great confidence on inspection, and yet has a sweet and willing nature. It is almost a surprise that she is a yearling as she is already so powerful.
She is out of a half sister to Group 1 winning sire, Your Song, we felt she was a bargain buy when securing her for just $50,000 + gst.
We feel this filly can excel at 2 years old, and also have the strength to go on with the job at 3 years and older.
Following a post-sales spell, she breezed through the breaking-in stage, explored all the tracks that Hawkesbury has to offer and was introduced to the barriers.
She then went for an extended spell to allow her to mature and will return to the stable in a few weeks time for her second preparation.
We are hopeful that she will show enough precocity to make into a nice pre-Christmas 2yo, and will give herself every chance of returning to the Gold Coast next year for the Magic Millions 2yo race series, for which she has been nominated.

This colt really spoke to Jack at the sales! He has a lovely loose action and is beautifully put together with great strength, angles, and temperament. He really showed himself off and quickly became our favourite horse of the sale!
He is out of a 3-time winner over a mile+ and from a family Jack is familiar with having ridden the dam’s half-sister, who was multiple stakes places and finished 4th in the QLD Oaks.
It is one of the best NZ families that is steeped in top level performers including Smiling Like, the Champion Stayer in NZ.
Peltzer was fastest, highest-rated and most precocious two-year-old by So You Think. He was undefeated in three races as a 2yo from 1000m - 1300m. As a 3yo, he continued to show his distance versatility in the 1500m G2 Stan Fox, the 1600m $1m Bondi and the 1200m G3 Eskimo Prince.
We can’t wait to start breaking this colt in! That process will last about a month, after which he will have a little more time in the paddock. We will gradually apply a little more pressure each preparation and let him come to hand as he is ready to do so. With his sire being a very good 2yo, don’t be surprised to see him hold his own against his generation as a juvenile. However, given most of his pedigree excel over a little more ground, and particularly given his style and physique, we do believe we’ll see the best of him at 3 years old, targeting the classic distances of 1500m+… Guineas and Derbys all things being well! He is also Bobs Bonus Eligible, and nominated for the lucrative Inglis Race series, further boosting earning potential!

This smashing colt was bought from the Yulong draft at Magic Millions in January 2023.
He made his debut at Rosehill on the 20th of January this year and was the stables first ever runner. He has shown great ability and looks to have a bright future.
We believe he has the natural talent to make his presence felt in the Autumn 2yo races but will reach his best level on the racetrack at 3 years old.
