Bred and consigned by Emirates Park, the colt is the second foal of Group II winner One More Honey and sold for an even $1million to the Hong Kong Jockey Club.

He is a half-brother to this season’s Group II placed two year-old colt Man in the Mirror, who sold for $1.8 million at Magic Millions last year and his dam is a half-sister to Group I winning sprinter Vega One.

Zoustar has had a dozen winners in Hong Kong highlighted by his Group III winner Healthy Happy.
