WHY WE LOVE HIM!
From a select few horses the Melbourne Premier Sale has certainly been good to us. With the likes of Princess Posh and Aliferous both coming out this sale.
In this So You Think Colt we think we have unearthed another one!
We are keen to add a colt to our stable that has a middle distance pedigree. This colt has just that and more.
The prize-money levels in our Middle distance and staying races is unprecedented, and the stocks are thin, VERY THIN! This gives as a great opportunity to take a large share of that prize-money on ofer!
By Champion sire SO YOU THINK out of a half sister to the Champion middle distance performed PROTECTIONIST.
“Specifically trying to find a Middle distance Classic bred colt is Australia is not always easy.
Rarely do you find anything like this colt down here in Australia. Not surprisingly he was bred at Arrowfield.
A Classic colt with a Classic pedigree. A real stand- out. He would of made plenty more if sold in Europe – loved him” – Jamie Lovett
THE TRAINER – Dany O’Brien
“I enjoy training these sorts of colts, and have had good success with them. The Northern Hemisphere bred Russian Camelot the most recent.
This colt has a European staying page, but bred here in Australia, so will be eligible for all of our Classics.
He was a lovely relaxed, well balanced colt. He covers plenty of ground when he moves, strong but very athletic.
I am really looking forward to training him for the boys, who obviously know the family well.” – Danny O’Brien
