Vinery stud will offer a select draft of five at this year's Inglis Easter Yearling Sale.
Vinery is a leading vendor of elite racehorses, celebrating winners at the highest level like this year's Golden Slipper winner, Farnan and last year's Magic Millions 2YO Classic winner, Exhilarates. Other notable graduates include Aristia, Russian Revolution, Frolic, Shamus Award, Atlantic Jewel, Samaready, Entisaar and Delectation.
Lot 209 - I Am Invincible x Snitzerland (colt)
Conformation: "He is a later foal and is still developing, but he has certainly grown into some sort of colt already. He has great strength and is very well balanced. He moves exceptionally well and is very athletic."
Pedigree: "Snitzerland has quickly demonstrated that she is one of those rare top-class racehorses that can also do it as a producer. She was obviously a very early type herself having raced before Christmas of her juvenile season and went on to be second in a Golden Slipper, so it’s no surprise to see Hard Landing win a Group 3 race on debut back in November of his 2-year-old year."
Lot 378 - Tavistock (NZ) x Champagne Harmony (colt)
Conformation: "A lovely colt with good size and scope - he has plenty of strength to go with it and is quite forward for a Tavistock from what I know of them. He is a colt that you could see hitting the track as a later juvenile before really developing into a nice 3-year-old."
Pedigree: "Tavistock has been a very successful stallion, particularly with colts. Champagne Harmony was a Group winner as a 3-year-old and has produced a filly called Sezanne who was also a talented 3-year-old before she got injured and had to be retired. She was second in the G1 Flight S. behind Yankee Rose."
Lot 480 - Snitzel x Hallowell Belle (colt)
Conformation: "A good sized colt with nice strength, especially through his hind quarter. He’s a lovely balanced colt and as a late October foal you can certainly see more development to come."
Pedigree: "His mother was an outstanding race mare. She was second in the G1 Blue Diamond S. behind Sepoy as a juvenile and went on to win at Group 2 level and was Group 1 placed four times. It is a family which has had a lot of success in juvenile stakes races and also features the Caulfield Guineas winner, In Top Swing."
Lot 174 - Sebring x Runway Star (filly)
Conformation: "A very attractive filly. She is of good size and possesses her fair share of strength which is impressive given that she is a November foal. She also has good scope and will only continue to improve. A filly who is all quality, she has a real presence about her."
Pedigree: "This filly’s strong pedigree is full of Stakes-winning sprinters. She is out of the Group 3 and dual Listed-winning mare, Runway Star. Her third dam, Wrap Around, is a Group 1, Group 2, dual Group 3 and three-time Listed winner. Her pedigree also features Champion 2-year-old filly and dual Group 1 winner Fashions Afield, who is the dam of the G2 Todman S. winner, and now stallion at stud, Kiss And Make Up."
Lot 235 - More Than Ready (USA) x Tale Of Choice (filly)
Conformation: "A neat filly with very good strength. Being a later foal, I anticipate that she will continue to mature and furnish into a lovely type. She is a fantastic mover and possesses a fluent, free action."
Pedigree: "This filly is from an excellent 2-year-old family. She is out of the very talented Redoute’s Choice mare, Tale Of Choice, who in addition to being a 2-year-old winner, ran a close third in the G2 Sweet Embrace S. at just her third start before her promising career was cut short due to injury. Tale Of Choice is a full-sister to 2-year-old winner and Group 2-placed Raphael’s Cat. Their dam, Cat By The Tail, is a Group 2 winner and multiple Group placegetter."
