Dynamic Syndications have secured two cracking filly’s on day one of the Gold Coast Magic Millions Yearlings Sale with wonderful black type pedigrees. The first major sale of the New Year has started in relatively strong fashion with figures once again up on last year’s average through the first day of sales.
LOT 77 (MANHATTAN RAIN – MISS EXCELLENCE) came to the ring just before the half way point of day one of the sales and we were ready and waiting when she did. Dynamic had studied this lot carefully and thought that it may be out of our price range but much to our delight, we got her at a bargain base price. Dynamic paid just $90,000 for this extremely well related filly that will have plenty of residual value once her racing career finishes.
By boom first season sire, MANHATTAN RAIN, the wraps have been big on his progeny which are performing well at the sale to date. This filly is out of MISS EXCELLENCE, a full sister to Dynamic Gr1 Blue Diamond winner, REWARD FOR EFFORT.
The family is littered with black type with her grand-dam, MISS PROSPECT who was a multiple stakes winner in her own right, producing not only the aforementioned REWARD FOR EFFORT but SW CONSULAR who won over $1m in prizemoney and the stakes placed ANNIE LA VIE and OVERREACH. This filly is also closely related to the stakes winners FULL AT LAST, CHUCKLE, BLEVEEKA, CATNIPPED, SISTER HAVANNA and LIFE’S A BOUNTY. With a family like this, Dynamic could simply not let this filly go to any other stable but our own.
This filly is built for 2yo speed just like her father MANHATTAN RAIN who won the Gr1 AJC Sire Produce Stakes and was third in the Gr1 Golden Slipper as a 2yo. He was a superstar on the track and if the early signs are correct, Dynamic and industry experts alike believe that he will be just as good as a sire. Dynamic have already had plenty of success with this family in the past and we cannot wait to start syndicating this cracking filly.
Another advantage with this filly is that she is both BOBS and QTIS eligible which could see her getting the extra prize money bonuses in both NSW and QLD. Stay tuned to the website for more information on this athletic and strong filly that we will start to syndicated in the near future.
It was not long before the hammer again went down with Dynamic left as the final bidder. LOT 147 (ENCOSTA DE LAGO – PRETTY FLAMINGO) was a family that Dynamic immediately recognised and it continues to get better as time goes on. Our new filly is by champion sire ENCOSTA DE LAGO and out of the unraced More Than Ready mare, PRETTY FLAMINGO. As far as pedigrees go, there is not many better than this and Dynamic were extremely excited to get our hands on this filly.
PRETTY FLAMINGO was a $625,000 weanling purchase but was retired to stud before she got to the track. How good she could have been on track, we will never know but her excellent conformation and pedigree were definitely not lost on our filly. The Grand Dam, MILANOVA, was a very impressive racehorse winning twice at stakes level and Gr1 placed on two separate occasions. She earned the tag “The $5 Million Mare” when she was sold as a broodmare to Coolmore stud at the end of her racing career for a whopping $5m as was the faith in her outstanding pedigree.
This pedigree has ties to stakes winners all over the world including Champion UK Sprinter HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR which was sold for $3m as he went to stud, Japanese Stakes Winner BIG VIKING, Multiple LR winner HEART OF OAK as well as Australian SW ZELSNITZ and Champion Canadian filly FANFRELUCHE.
Our filly is By ENCOSTA DE LAGO, a multiple champion sire that Dynamic continue to have success with. He is achieving the “Remarkable” at an “Enviable” rate. What makes him so good is the versatility that he has. He’s getting precocious 2yo’s, Classic Winners, Group 1 Sprinters, Leading Older Horses and continues to sire the best horses year after year. His record speaks for itself with 20 Individual Gr1 WINNERS among 93 Stakes Winners. This record is virtually unmatched by any sire and he is going at the phenomenal rate of 87.0% Runners : Earners
With a pedigree that is as strong as this on both sides of the family, it is no wonder we wanted to make her our own and we are extremely excited to have her in the stable. A trainer is yet to be decided for this cracking filly but a decision will be made in the near future.
Dynamic have been hard at work to secure the best yearlings to give our clients the best chance at racetrack success. We firmly believe in quality and not quantity and if it doesn’t fit every area of our strict criteria, we will not buy it. We believe that these two filly’s are well above average in both confirmation and pedigree and we can’t wait for you to join our Dynamic Team. For more information on both of these colts, please contact the Dynamic offices on (02) 9587 1511.
