Coolmore Secure $500,000 Zoustar Colt

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday January 8

Some people may have wondered at Coolmore’s Tom Magnier paying $500,000 for a Zoustar colt early in the sale at Magic Millions on Wednesday, but when you hear what his breeder John North of Bowness Stud has to say about him you can see why this colt is seen as having serious potential.

Offered as Lot 51, he’s the eighth foal of Commands mare You’re Dreamin, a half-sister to stakes-winners Johnny Reb and Power of Pegasus that has had five foals to race and all are winners.

According to his breeder, this youngster had ‘no chinks in his armour’!

Zoustyle Does it Again!
"The guys that own him were really disappointed when he drew wide but I said to them when he came over here and worked on Tuesday, 'this is really his favourite track’, he gets himself into such a good rhythm here and it's the only race all Summer that I had an opportunity to bring him back here to Doomben," Gollan said.
