Favourite Foal an Inglis Easter Star for Willow Park
Wet weather in the Hunter Valley last week meant the Inglis Easter inspection touring party missed out on their scheduled stop at Willow Park Stud, which was a shame as Breednet owner Craig Tompson had been keen to catch up with a yearling that has already made an impression on the Breednet audience as the Favourite Foal of 2019.

Champion sire Pierro has left half a dozen Group I winners, but none have been better than his exceptional daughter Arcadia Queen (5m Pierro x Arcadia, by Redoute’s Choice), who topped the record breaking Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale at the Gold Coast this week when selling for $3.2million.
A homebred for Bob and Sandra Peters, Arcadia Queen was initially passed in when offered by Holbrook Thoroughbreds as agent through the ring on Tuesday, but subsequent negotiations have resulted in a sale with Arrowfield Stud securing the triple Group I winner, who was won just shy of $4million in prizemoney.
"She's a wonderful mare," Arrowfield Stud's Paul Messara said. "One of those foundation style mares that you love to have.
"It's a fantastic pedigree and obviously she's an amazing mare. She will go back to Arrowfield and one of our breeding ventures and we're delighted to have her.
"Obviously with a mare like this it is very important to get the right mating for her and produce the best commercial outcome."
Not surprisingly, Arcadia Queen’s dam Arcadia has been a regular visitor to Pierro and has a yearling filly and weanling colt by the Golden Slipper winning sire and is back in foal to him again.
Pierro stands this spring at a fee of $110,000.
