Tivaci Winner for Neasham

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday August 31

The Annabel Neasham stable can do no wrong at present with their latest winner coming at Hawkesbury on Tuesday with Inglis Ready 2 Race purchase Eyes to Eye breaking his maiden at his second race start.

Eyes to Eye went forward from gate one for Hugh Bowman and led all the way to win by half a length over 1500m.



A $140,000 Karaka Book 1 purchase for Breeze Up Bloodstock from the Hallmark stud draft, Eyes to eye was re-offered at the Inglis Ready 2 Race Sale last year in the Prima Park draft where he was bought by Aramco Racing for $180,000.

Eyes to Eye was a $180,000 purchase from Inglis Ready 2 Race.

Eyes to Eye is a half-brother to Group II winner Robusto and Group II placed Bobby Dee being the fourth winner from four to race from Adriatico, a winning daughter of Stravinsky (USA).

A Group I winning sprinter by renowned sire of sires High Chaparral, Tivaci has made a good start to the new season with Eyes to Eye his fourth Australian winner since August 1.

With his oldest progeny just three year-olds, Tivaci stands at Waikato Stud at a fee of $12,500.
