The news that
FIRST SEAL (Fastnet Rock x Episode) is to be covered by
SNITZEL is exciting for the
Dynamic Syndications Team.
We have purchased two fillies closely related to
FIRST SEAL and now to discover that
FIRST SEAL is being bred to the Record Breaking SNITZEL is advantageous to us because the future value of this family has opportunity to increase significantly in Black Type, in this already saturated Black Type female family.
TELEPLAY
In 2016 we purchased and syndicated the now
2yo Filly TELEPLAY (by Written Tycoon ex Special Episode) who is back in training with
Mick Price.
Her Dam
SPECIAL EPISODE (by Redoute’s Choice) is a winning
3/4 sister to FIRST SEAL.
As a broodmare
SPECIAL EPISODE has had
3 foals to race, 2 winners and 1 placed:-
Astro Fame (g by Encosta de Lago). 3 wins from 1300m to 1700m in 2016 in Malaysia, 3d Penang TC Yang di Pertua Negeri Gold Cup,
LR.
Special Girls (f by Testa Rossa). Winner at 2.
Imiyalelo (f by Commands). Placed in 2015-16.
Whilst
TELEPLAY (2yo) is yet to race, she has shown such promise with outstanding trackwork ability that we are very upbeat about her prospects and believe she could measure up to earn black type for her owners.
We were so impressed with
TELEPLAY that we targeted and purchased her yearling 1/2 sister by
PIERRO at the 2017 Magic Millions Sales on the Gold Coast.
