UK Fastnet Rock Stakes-Winner Headed to Australia

Tara Madgwick - Saturday July 29
Champion Australian sire Fastnet Rock has more than made his mark in the Northern Hemisphere and added a 120th stakes-winner to his tally overnight with a York stakes success for three year-old filly Entsar.

Fastnet RockTrained by William Haggas, Enstar scored a length and a quarter win in the Listed British Stallion Studs EBF Lyric Fillies' Stakes over 1m 2 ½ furlongs and has now won three of nine starts.

A 260,000 guinea purchase from the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale for John Warren Bloodstock, Entsar runs for Al Shaqab Racing, who are now going to retire the filly to stud.

"Entsar will now go to Australia as a broodmare," said Alison Begley, representing the owners.

Entsar is a half-sister to Group I winner La Collina from the Galileo mare Starfish.
