Who is the hottest stallion in Australasia right now?
All racing enthusiasts are aware - the answer is FASTNET ROCK. So, Dynamic Syndications were keen.
Having completed our due diligence investigations and inspecting every Fastnet Rock filly was or first priority to ensure we could maximise our opportunity of buying the best one we could afford based upon a combination of athleticism, strength, commercial pedigree and the pedigree ratings score along with crystal clear X-rays. to add another well bred filly by this super sire to our existing stable of high quality yearlings purchased in 2012. We achieved our goal buying the full sister to Gr1 & LR performed 2yo PEARL OF THE SEA for just $80,000.
We looked at all the session one candidates and those without faults all sold well above our buying threshold. However we identified early that we should grab lot 476 from session 2 at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sales if we could get her under $150,000. To buy her at $80,000 was ridiculous and again showed the fickle market forces at play.
LOT 476 = FASTNET ROCK / JEWEL OF THE NILE bay filly foaled 16/9/10.
Offered by Fairview Park Stud (as agent) on behalf of breeder Ross Daisley, the filly was a stunning example of the quality individuals Fastnet Rock produces.
From the broodmare JEWEL OF THE NILE, she was a Sydney winner over 1250m and is a 1/2 sister to Gr1 winner SPECTATORIAL and KENNETT - a Stakes Placed winner of 5 races.
JEWEL OF THE NILE is a daughter of Stakes Winner REIGN OF HONOUR.
REIGN OF HONOUR is a daughter of Stakes Winner SINGING WONDER.
SINGING WONDER is a daughter of Stakes Winner STAR OF MILAN.
