Opening
his account with an easy win at Cranbourne on Friday evening was promising
Shooting to Win colt Treaty of Seville, a $180,000 Inglis Premier purchase from
the Aquis Farm draft for John Foote Bloodstock/ Darren Weir Racing.
Prepared by Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young, Treaty of Seville was expected to
run well and stormed clear of his rivals from off the pace to win the 1000
metre maiden by two lengths.
Treaty of Seville runs for a big syndicate of owners including Aquis in whose
colours he runs.
He is a half-brother to stakes-placed American Genius from Gibraltar Moon, who comes
from the family of Ain't Seen Nothin', Bachman, Stepitup and Ain'tnofallenstar.
Gibraltar Moon is in the Aquis broodmare band and has a yearling colt by Deep
Field, a weanling colt by Zoustar and was covered last spring by their young I
Am Invincible sire Kobayashi.
Treaty of Seville is the second winner for Darley's Group I Caulfield Guineas
winner Shooting to Win, who covered 131 mares last spring at a fee of $22,000.
