I producing sire Sepoy moves to Victoria this spring for Darley and with two
year-old winners like this one at Ballarat on Wednesday, he is sure to be met
with a warm reception.
The Darren Weir trained filly Anjana won her debut at Wangaratta earlier this
month, but stepped it up a notch when blitzing her rivals to win as she pleased
at her second start in an open juvenile event over 1200 metres.
She revelled in the heavy ground, powering clear to win by six lengths as favourite
keeping her unbeaten record intact.
A $34,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Darren Weir/ Roll the Dice Racing, Anjana
was bred and sold by Bert Vieira of Trapeze Artist fame.
Th speedy grey is the third winner from Further, a More Than Ready (USA)
half-sister to Group III Elusive Touch from Group III winner Shelbourne Lass.
She owes her grey colouring to fourth dam Janzone, a daughter of legendary grey
New Zealand based sire Sovereign Edition (IRE).
Bowness Stud as agent for Bert Vieira sold a yearling full sister to Anjana at
the 2018 Adelaide Magic Millions for $47,500.
Sepoy has had a good season as the sire of dual Group I winner Alizee and Group
III winning juvenile Marcel from Madrid as well as six other stakes perfomers.
The Golden Slipper winner stands at Darley Victoria this spring at a fee of
just $11,000.
