Skybird (Towkay-Cassandra by Centro), who comprehensively outstayed her R85 opponents to take the $30,000 2400m event at Trentham last Saturday, is another example of the great all-purpose ability of her sire.
The Richard Cottle bred and Sandie Cookson trained mares success follows Slazenjah’s (Towkay-Crisp by Zeditave) victory in the 2100m Raukawa Cup at Otaki the previous Saturday.
Meanwhile in Hong Kong last Thursday, Idyllic Wind (Towkay-Wake Up Suzie by Hereward The Wake) was simply too slick for his rivals over 1000m. His latest win caps an outstanding run of form of late which has never seen him finish further back than second at his last five starts.
Be it sprinters, milers, stayers or two-year-old’s, Towkay has a rare ability as a sire to leave them all. Towkay stands this season at an extremely competitive fee of $5,000 plus GST.
