Following on from the recent upgrades for Lot No’s 105 and 392 in our Karaka Premier draft comes more good news with the latest performances from Tiger Stripe in Australia and domestically, the highly promising Darci Brahma colt Nashville.
Tiger Stripe who recorded his third consecutive success in Victoria earlier this month is from a half sister to our first lot through the Premier Sale, an Alamosa filly from the multiple stakes producing mare Vedodara, which sells as Lot 5. Opportunities to buy fillies from this sought after family are rare and Tiger Stripe’s recent form reminds buyers of the families’ ability to leave high performing racehorses.
One of the more exciting three-year-olds in the country at the moment is the Adrian Bull trained Nashville, whose latest success at Awapuni on Saturday over 1400m bought his record to two wins and a second from just three career starts. LA offers a half sister by the leading sire Stravinsky to Nashville, which sells as lot 410 at Karaka.
Glorious Days (Hussonet-San Century) who remained unbeaten in four career starts with his latest success over 1400m in Hong Kong on 18 December, traces to the blue hen Te Parae mare Sanderae. His next race will be the G1 Champions Mile. The latest group winner from this remarkable family is this year’s Group Two Queensland Guineas winner Torio’s Quest.
Remember to mark Sunday 15 January down in your diary for our annual parade of the yearlings we will be taking north to Karaka. It will kick-off at 10.30am.
