After offering Group II ATC  Todman Stakes winner Gunnison for a sale-topping $1,4 million in 2017, James Harron Bloodstock will offer a quality draft of three colts at the upcoming Inglis Chairman's Sale of Racing Prospects, highlighted by high-class 3YO colt Siege of Quebec on behalf of Coolmore Stud and partners.

Siege of QuebecHe will be offered alongside city-winning colts from the JHB Colt Group, Hypnotist and Almighty. 

James Harron said, "The Inglis Chairman's Sale has revolutionised the sale of racing prospects, giving buyers and vendors the transparency offered by public auction, and I am delighted to present three lightly-raced and physically outstanding colts, each by an Australian Champion Sire."

 

A $1.2 milllion Inglis Easter yearling from one of Australia's very best families, Siege of Quebec ((image Steve Hart) has twice placed at stakes level, including when second to Kementari in the Group III ATC  Eskimo Prince Stakes.

Another with untapped potential is city winning Exceed and Excel colt and $700,000 yearling Almighty, an all-the-way winner at Sandown in November. He is also qualified for a Hong Kong PP import at HK70 and, along with Hypnotist, Almighty will trial at Randwick on Monday 26th March ahead of the sale on Thursday 5th April.

 

Of the draft, James Harron said, "We are honoured that Coolmore and their partners have entrusted Siege of Quebec in our draft, alongside two quality metropolitan gallopers from our colt group in Hypnotist and Almighty, all lightly-raced and with a huge amount of future upside."
