Conceived in the Northern Hemisphere and foaled in Australia, the colt from
stakes-winning Redoute's Choice mare Shaquira (GB) will be offered as Lot 85 by
Widden Stud.He is the first foal of Shaqira, whose next two dams are stakes-winners, the family already having produced a Group II winner by Shamardal in brilliant sprinter miler Shakespearean.
Given the success of Shamardal in Hong Kong through his champion Australian bred son Able Friend and the rising star on the scene Pakistan Star, this colt is seen as being highly desirable by many parties.
"Pakistan Star is obviously the latest phenomenon in Hong Kong and Able Friend is still viewed by many as one of the world's best horses so it comes as no surprise that a Shamardal colt is going to gain the attention of many potential buyers," said Inglis Managing Director, Mark Webster.
"There are plenty of international clients here for the Inglis Ready2Race sale but as we know, Shamardal is very much a proven sire in Australia too so it will be interesting to see where the interest lies with not only that horse but all the Lots being offered.
"On the back of recent prizemoney increases in NSW, there really has never been a better time to get involved in racing."
