Clinton Payne - Saturday July 7
The Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott-trainedPinot has been sold to international interests and it's doubtful she will race again in Australia.

PinotCo-trainer Adrian Bott revealed that the daughter of Pierro was sold recently for an undisclosed sum to a Northern Hemisphere-based owner.

"The owners we're approached and received a very good offer," Bott said,

"Her breeding value going forward is huge. She's an Oaks winner out of an Oaks winner.

"I can't disclose the buyer or the purchase price.

"It's unlikely she would race in Australia again."

Pinot won three of her six Australian starts and earned more than $750,000.
