The
just released Preview Magazine for the Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale has
confirmed that the world's most exciting young stallion Frankel will have
representation at Australia's flagship sale with five youngsters by the
unbeaten superstar appearing in the index for 2016.
A number of mares were bred to Frankel to Southern Hemisphere time resulting in
foals born in Australia last year and five will be offered for sale, but not
the most famous of them all, the filly from John Singleton's champion mare More
Joyous.
Singo will however offer the first foal (a colt) from his Group II winner More
Strawberries, a half-sister to Group I winner and sire All American.
Cressfield will offer a filly from Kiwi Group II winner Jeu des Cartes and a
colt from Buenos Aires (IRE), a half-sister to Australian Horse of the Year
Might and Power, while Widden stud will offer a filly from Mocca (IRE), the dam
of Group III winner Kiyoshi.
Three Bridges Thoroughbreds will also get in on the Frankel action presenting
the first foal (filly) of South African bred Group I winner Chocolicious (SAfr).
Frankel's first runners will hit European tracks in 2016, so it will be most
interesting to see how the international buyers receive these youngsters based
on what is happening with their Northern Hemisphere bred counterparts.
Will Frankel have a winner on the board before Easter or at least something promising
in the pipeline?
The Europeans will have all the answers.
