First Australian Bred Winner for Sir Prancealot

Mark Smith - Sunday July 4

If those images of the magnificent Sir Prancealot (IRE) ready to board a plane for Cornerstone Stud were not enough to incentivise breeders, perhaps the victory of Belle Of Yorkes in Saturday’s $100,000 Adelaide Event Catering 2yo (1200m) at Murray Bridge will.

A well-beaten second behind the experienced Bleriot (Divine Prophet) on debut, Belle Of Yorkes took enough benefit from that outing to finish strongly under Karl Zechner to capture the valuable prize.

Trained by Jon O’Connor, the daughter of Sir Prancealot (IRE) defeated the Zebedee (GB) gelding Jaazeb by a neck with the Star Witness filly Witness Greatness a further one and a half-lengths back in third.

Belle Of Yorkes becomes the first Australian-bred winner for Sir Prancealot (IRE). The son of Tamayuz shuttles to Cornerstone Stud from Rancho San Miguel in California, where he stood for the first time in 2020, due in no small part to the success of Lady Prancelot in the Grade 1 American Oaks at Santa Anita.

A homebred for Mr N Hoskin, Belle Of Yorkes is the eighth and final foal of the Redoute’s Choice mare Charzoo.

A $480,000 purchase at the  2007 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, Charzoo was bought for $36,000 at the National Broodmare Sale in 2010.

A three-time winner, Charzoo left five winners from seven to race. Her stakes-placed dam Marildo (Centaine) was a daughter of the Group 1 Western Australian Oaks winner True Devotion (Beau Sovereign).

Sir Prancealot (IRE) stands at Cornerstone Stud in 2021 for a fee of $9,900.
