Tara Madgwick - Monday April 8

Consigned by Newgate Farm on behalf of a joint venture between Newgate and Gooree Stud, the handsome colt was bought by Go Bloodstock Australia / Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott Racing / Kestrel Thoroughbreds, NSW.

He is the fourth foal of slick Group III winning filly Tempt Me Not, a grand-daughter  of Gooree Stud’s dual Group I winning filly Tempest Morn, who was trained by Waterhouse.

A diminutive daughter of Kentucky Derby winner Thunder Gulch (USA), Tempest Morn won the STC Ansett Australia Stakes and SAJC Australasian Oaks as well as placing in a further four Group I races. The family has had a good recent update with second dam Ganda producing this season’s stakes-winning juvenile filly Castanya.

Tempt Me Not has another colt to follow by Extreme Choice and is back in foal to him again.
