The buyer was none other than syndicate newcomer Edge Thoroughbreds, which is set to open its books in the coming weeks for prospective owners looking for, ‘a new breed of syndication’.

“Godfather is an exceptional horse with wonderful pedigree,” says Edge co-founder Brendan Nelson.

“We saw great things from him early on in his career, and with a new environment, trainer and ownership group, we are looking to bring out the very best in him again.”

Godfather has since joined star trainer Matt Dunn at his training facility in Murwillumbah, Northern NSW.
