He was sourced from the Inglis Digital June (early) Online Sale for $22,500 and the ad for him features the priceless comment… is a good Pin Hooking Prospect!

The colt is the second foal of wll bred import Fadetta, who was purchased by Avesta Bloodstock last year at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale for $150,000 when in foal to Extreme Choice. She produced a colt from that mating and was then covered by Bivouac.
