Group One Draft from a Group One Vendor

Media Release - Thursday March 1
The 2018 Inglis Premier Yearling Sale starts on Sunday and Millford Thoroughbreds are looking forward to a strong sale with a stunning draft of 11 youngsters by leading sires such as Snitzel and Written Tycoon.

There aren't many vendors who can claim to have sold a Cox Plate winner at Inglis Premier, but Millford Thoroughbreds have that honour having prepared and sold Pinker Pinker, who won over $2.6 million in prizemoney.

Pinker Pinker is not their only elite level success with other Group I winners either raised and or sold from their Nagambie nursery including Scales of Justice, Precious Gem and Perfect Reflection, while Disposition and French Emotion have been Group I placed.

This year's draft is packed with quality and all are shown below.



Lot 110 Filly More Than Ready (USA) x Sorel Point – There is a pedigree update for this one as this season's speedy Kiwi 2YO Group II winner Spanish Whisper comes into the second dam. She is from a full sister to the dam of this filly.



Lot 162
Colt Toronado (IRE) x Stealapipe – Second foal of a daughter of stakes-winner Kilspindie.
