Hills Produce Another Good One

Media Release - Sunday December 31

Hills that have produced a Magic Millions 2yo winner, a Golden Slipper winner, a Derby winner plus a myriad of other notable G1 winners, Kitchwin Hills look to have produced another top liner in Pierro colt Pierata.

Pierata, the latest star produced by Kitchwin HillsA $160,000 purchase from Kitchwin Hills  2016 draft, Pierata is on the verge of the biggest pay day in Queensland Racing history if he wins the Magic Millions 3yo for his trainer Greg Hickman following his dominant display in the Group III Vo Rogue plate at Doomben.

REPLAY HERE

Kitchwin go to Magic Millions not only with its largest draft to date with 29 yearlings, but also with a sense that fate is set to play her card with the deceased Time For War having his first yearlings go to market.

They include this stunning colt from Love The Feeling (Lot 44) pictured below.


 "Everyone is talking about them, they appear more Snitzel than any others we have seen, which is not surprising because as a multiple G2 winning 2yo, physically Time For War was the absolute mirror image of his dad," said KITCHWIN's manager Michael Malone.

"He will haunt us! It really does have that feel about it," said Malone.
