China Horse Club Blueblood Breaks Through

Tara Madgwick - Thursday June 22
Expensive Redoute's Choice filly Primavera can head to stud a winner after casting off maiden status at Newcastle on Thursday for the China Horse Club.

Primavera as a yearlingA three-quarter sister to Group I ATC Sires Produce Stakes winner Invader, the Hawkes Racing trained Primavera improved at her third run back from a spell to win the 1350 metre maiden by three-quarters of a length as favourite.

It was her first win in six starts and while she's clearly no world beater on the track, Primavera will no doubt make her mark at stud.

Originally a $520,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Arrowfield Stud draft for John Warren / China Horse Club / Dean Hawthorne, Primavera was re-offered at the recent Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale where she was bought by Bruce Perry Bloodstock for $550,000 and is now in the sole ownership of China Horse Club.

Primavera is the fourth winner for stakes-winning Encosta de Lago mare Flame of Sydney, who is the dam of this season's juvenile Group I winner Invader (also part-owned by China Horse Club) and also the Group I placed HK stakes-winner Not Listenin'tome.

Flame of Sydney was bought by Yu Long Investments for $605,000 at the 2015 Inglis Broodmare Sale and has a weanling colt by Snitzel and was covered last year by Medaglia D'Oro (USA).
