Family Search Finds Willaidow Relation
Breednet’s Family Search feature is very good for sniffing out close relations to stakes-winners in upcoming sales and one of the most interesting stakes-winners from Saturday was Shamus Award gelding Willaidow and being from a well known female family he was always going to be a good candidate for a search.
He’s nothing flash to look at and cost just $7,000 as an unbroken three year-old in a Magic Millions Online Sale, but the Marc Conners trained Shamus Award gelding Willaidow has the most important thing of all and that’s the will to win and he showed it at Rosehill on Saturday when taking out the $250,000 Group III ATC Southern Cross Stakes (1200m).
It was only a midweek Class 1 at Sandown on a Wednesday over 1200m, but the two fillies that ran the quinella are by champion Victorian sires Shamus Award and Toronado (IRE) and both hold the promise of stakes potential.
