Bennett Racing have had a hot run of success with the likes of Baraqiel, Snitzanova, Magnaspin, Zou Sensation, Warnie and Tornado Valley and they signed for a lovely Ole Kirk filly at Inglis Premier on Monday for $430,000.
Bred and offered for sale by Gilgai Farm, the filly is a full sister to smart metro winner Aerodrome and is the third foal of Group III winning Epaulette mare She Shao Fly, who raced throughout her career in the Bennett Racing colours.
She Shao Fly was bought by Bennett Racing at the Magic Millions Yearling Sale in Adelaide for $67,500 and went on to win over $330,000. She was sold at the end of her racing career for $500,000 at the 2021 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale, so returned a handsome profit on every level for her ownership group.
Nathan Bennett took one look at her Ole Kirk filly and could see the similarities with her dam and quickly decided he was not leaving Oaklands without her!
Gilgai Farm sold a full sister to this filly last year at Inglis Premier for $70,000 to Japanese based buyer K Oka and she was subsequently exported to Japan and She Shao Fly produced a filly last spring by Extreme Choice, so there are a few irons in the fire with this girl.
