Well-related three-year-old Tauto Bar looks a horse to follow in the spring following his runaway success over 1200 metres at Moe for trainers Ben, Will and JD Hayes.
“He enjoyed being in front and gave me a really good kick,” successful rider Jamie Mott (pictured) said.
Co-bred by Little Avondale he was sold through the farm’s draft at the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale for A$325,000 and is out of the Encosta De Lago mare Lancashire Lass.
She is a half-sister to champion Hong Kong galloper and 10-time Group 1 winner Golden Sixty and has a yearling brother to Tauto Bay and is due to foal to Toronado.
