After 21/22 Australian stake earnings of NZ $6.13 million even his most optimistic supporters would have been hard pressed to believe he could exceed that in 22/23 but that’s exactly what the exceptional son of Street Cry has managed, and with the likes of exciting filly Marble Arch (Per Incanto-Jonquil by Sakhee’s Secret), a decisive winner of the Aus$300k Rising Stars Final at Pakenham on Thursday evening, dual Group winner Roch N Horse, Blue Diamond winner Little Brose and Gr.2 winner Lost And Running, there’s a fair chance that his Australian current seasonal earnings of NZ$7.57 million are going to get a significant nudge in coming weeks.
Marble Arch, bred by William Fell’s Goodwood Stud, took her unbeaten Australian streak to three with Thursday nights win. The 3YO filly was a $3,100 weanling purchase from a May 2020 Gavelhouse auction online auction.
Legarto’s sensational Australian Guineas win on Saturday was a feather in the cap of her damsire Towkay who stood successfully at LA for his stallion career. LA are breeding from some members of Legarto’s family, including a half-sister Gr.3 winner Kekova, who's daughter Keke Star is currently in foal to Proisir.
