Already in their short training career brothers Kris and Paul Shailer have shown a knack of finding talented racehorses at the yearling sales and we hope that trend continues with their purchase of our Per Incanto – I’m Samantha by Centaine yearling filly at last Friday’s South Island Sale.
It’s always encouraging as a breeder to see your horses go into the stables of leading trainers and this result arguers well for the first crop of Per Incanto yearlings going to Karaka this summer.
Lideem (Nadeem-Lissande by Fasliyev) won over 1100m in Victoria last week.
Group 1 winner Xanadu (Elusive City-Forest Dream) showed her readiness for more spoils this spring with an impressive exhibition gallop between races at Te Aroha on Friday. The LA bred mare is the early $5 favourite for the Group 1 Makfi Challenge Stakes (1400m) at Hastings on 31 August.
