This Colt carries the brand of Gilgai Farm which is the farm that bred his sire OLE KIRK as well as BLACK CAVIAR, ALL TOO HARD, JAMEKA, MASKED CRUSADER, THE QUARTERBACK and others so they are clearly very good breeders. The Colt is by the leading first season sire OLE KIRK who has made a very impressive start to his career with the Breeders Plate winner KING KIRK and Magic Millions winner O'OLE.&nbsp; How do they beat him for Champion First Season Sire.&nbsp; This shows very clearly that he can get a 2YO. He was raised on one of the great producing farms in Australia Vinery Stud.&nbsp; Think GROWING EMPIRE, FARNAN, MARABI, ARTORIUS all grown on Vinery Stud and these fast, elite race horses are just in very recent years.&nbsp; 2 of them stallions and GROWING EMPIRE heading to a stallion career.&nbsp; Some farm.

OLE KIRK, the leading first season sire with a Breeders Plate winner and a Magic Millions winner in his first crop.

This is SUPER VALUE! When you take the chance to look at this Colt's video and photos please take into account that he is a 19th November foal so was a few days over 14 months of age.&nbsp; You couldn't pick it against the August and September foaled Colts and 2 &amp; 3 months is a huge difference at this age.&nbsp; Because of his age we have decided to leave him at Waikato Stud for the next few months with a likely plan to bring him home on a direct flight to Brisbane in May just before it starts to get cold in New Zealand and we can break him in during the warmer Winter in Queensland. When LA DORADO was way too good for them in the Karaka Millions you would have thought the progeny of her father SUPER SETH would be very hard to buy the following few days but they were very good buying. Give us the progeny of the young stallion whose oldest progeny are only 3 and he has 5 stakes winners already including the very smart LINEBACKER who is not only a stakes winner at 2 but Group 1 placed at 2.&nbsp; Closer to home just watch the facile last start win of SAVOUR THE DREAM at Eagle Farm.&nbsp; This is the sort of horse we want to race. We don't profess to be geniuses in the genetics sphere but someone close to us told us that this Colt has an outstanding genetic makeup to make a racehorse and we will bow to his greater knowledge to go with his great athleticism. He was simply too nice a horse not to buy for just NZD50,000. Be aware that the purchase price does not include his freight to Australia and GST.&nbsp; We would anticipate that costing $10 to $11,000 in total likely due in May.

He is SUPER VALUE

Super Seth x Tonya 23

This is a lovely Colt by SHAMEXPRESS who is a stallion with poor fertility and struggles to get 30% of his mares covered in foal.&nbsp; Despite dealing with these limited numbers of foals he has 14 stakes winners, 2 Group 1 winners including current super star KA YING RISING who has run track records at his two Group 1 wins and is almost certain to be the first horse selected to run in this years Everest. His female pedigree is strong he is out of a mare by PINS out of a mare by CENTAINE.&nbsp; Multiple Group 1 winners PROBABEEL and I WISH I WIN are out of mares by PINS who in turn are out of mares by CENTAINE.&nbsp; His grandmother a full sister to outstanding mares SIXTY SECONDS and SPOTSWOODE and a 3/$ sister to ARLETTY.&nbsp; His blood is NZ strong. A horse with a great shaped hindquarter and good length to his hip.&nbsp; He left an impression as he stood in front of us and we knew we wanted him from his first stride away from us.&nbsp; We came to New Zealand to buy just this horse.

By the same sire as current superstar KA YING RISING

Shamexpress x Last Leg 23

You know LONHRO, there is nothing extra for us to tell you. Watch the video.&nbsp; Strong, deep girth, great hip and a great mover. This Filly is in the very last crop of yearlings by LONHRO.&nbsp; There are none next year or ever again.&nbsp; If you ever wanted to race one by this cult hero this is her.

The last chance you will have to own a LONHRO

Lonhro x Ruby Ninetails 23

This is a stallion we like very much.&nbsp; He throws horses with great temperaments and tremendous heart and lung capacity.&nbsp; He gets stayers like dual Derby winner HITOTSU and sprinters like MAZU. We tell ourselves all the time "Buy off good farms."&nbsp; The winners of 5 Group 1 races have been purchased from Arrowfield at Magic Millions since 2020. Our Colt is out of the Group 2 winner NOIRE who is a DANEHILL line mare and MAURICE loves DANEHILL blood, remember we mentioned his Group 1 winners HITOTSU, out of a REDOUTE'S CHOICE mare, and MAZU, out of a FLYING SPUR mare. This crop of MAURICE foals and this Colt were conceived after HITOTSU and MAZU won their Group 1's and that meant his fee went up and the quality of mares he got improved.&nbsp; These are the best mares that have been bred to the horse in Australia by a long way.&nbsp; It is fair to say he should get better racehorses.&nbsp; Time will tell.

Some people call me MAURICE

Maurice x Noire 23

This is one of the stronger bodied ANDERS yearlings we have seen and we have seen a few as we like the stallion.&nbsp; She moves well, is strong and could be an early runner looking at her. Eligible for everything, Bobs, QTIS and Magic Millions. Bred on the farm that bred ZOUSTAR, MOSSMAN, can I suggest our own talented 3YO CLIMACTIC was also bred on this farm so we are happy to buy them from this farm. Her mother by the outstanding broodmare sire MORE THAN READY and she has had 6 foals to the track for 6 winners.

Be part of all the bonuses and incentives with this Filly.

Anders x Why're You Waiting 23

This is a beautiful Filly.&nbsp; Strength, power, correct we loved her and she looks a 2YO.&nbsp; FASTNET ROCK runs as strong through her as HARRY ANGEL and both are good things to have. She is the fourth foal of a FASTNET ROCK half sister to the mighty BUFFERING.&nbsp; Don't worry about her half relations not running as yet, the first is a 4YO by ZOUSTAR who sold for $300,000 and he remains unnamed so that would suggest that he met with a terrible fate along the way.&nbsp; Her second was a $220,000 DUNDEEL Filly is only a 3YO and as you might know DUNDEEL does not get many Fillies that make it on the racetrack so for us this mare really hasn't had a chance to get a runner yet. She looks a real chance to be a Magic Millions chance.&nbsp; A gorgeous Filly that we stretched to buy because we wanted her in the stable.

HARRY ANGEL Filly looks a 2YO

Harry Angel x Diminish 23

This very sharp Colt by leading young stallion EXCEEDANCE looks a ready made 2YO and he is from a fast family.&nbsp; Like all our purchases he was given the all clear by our Vet with clean x-rays and a Grade 1 scope.&nbsp; He has a great deep girth to him and good hip and hindquarter.&nbsp; He is a beauty at his price.&nbsp; Bred by the Ramsay family at Turangga Stud on the edge of Scone who are the breeders of many high class gallopers he is no doubt bred to the right genetic patterns.&nbsp; In fact we bought a yearling from Turangga Farm last year for about the same money as this and he goes very, very well.&nbsp; His mother is by NOT A SINGLE DOUBT and is the daughter of a Group 1 winning 2YO, his page contains 3 Group 1 winners including a champion 2YO and this Colt looks a 2YO. You genuinely can't breed him for less than that and yet here is a really nice Colt. His whole focus when doing this video on the farm was swishing his tail to keep the flies away rather than showing off his great walk.

Value alert

Exceedance x Aneesa 23

This yearling Filly is by the reigning Champion Stallion of Queensland BETTER THAN READY.&nbsp; BETTER THAN READY is a multiple Champion Sire in Queensland, he was Champion First Season Sire of Queensland in 2018/2019, he has been the Champion 2YO Sire of Queensland 3 of the last 6 years. His progeny include the Group 1 winners APACHE CHASE and PORT LOCKROY, a Magic Millions winner in SKIRT THE LAW and progeny earnings of $49 million.&nbsp; He is the sire of 14 individual stakes winners which is quite a feat for a horse standing in Queensland.&nbsp; He gets good 2YO's who are sound and well made, his Group 1 winners were both 4YO's when winning at the elite level. She is a half sister to CLIMACTIC who is one of the most talented horses we have in the stable running brilliantly in Sydney on debut as a 2YO before easily winning his maiden at start 3.&nbsp; There is no doubt to us that he is a stakes grade horse who has been in need of a little time and maturity. This Filly was inspected by us in a paddock a few months ago and her purchase negotiated at that time.&nbsp; We have had her in the box at the farm a short while to tidy her coat up so that we could do this promotional video of her but she has had nowhere near the work of a sale preparation so she is in very good shape given that she is almost straight out of the paddock.&nbsp; She will be going to the breakers in January or February with our Magic Millions purchases where I have no doubt she will bloom and thrive with the work.

CLIMACTIC's sister joins the stable

Better Than Ready x Snitzel's Joy

A lovely Filly, a lot of FASTNET ROCK about her in her looks and strength. We think WRITTEN BY is an undervalued horse and this is a nice Filly by him.&nbsp; She moves well and has a great attitude to her work.

<div style="text-align: justify;">He looks like TORONADO,&nbsp; Have a look at how much his colour and marking are his father here&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="https://swettenham.com.au/swettenham-stallions/toronado/">Toronado - Swettenham Stud</a>&nbsp;,&nbsp; yet he is a short backed, strong hind quartered &amp; a powerful 2YO type just as you would find in a SNITZEL.&nbsp; TORONDAO has sired 34 stakes winners 4 of them at the elite level Group 1, great stallions get multiple Group 1 racehorses. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">Watch the video and you will see he was stabled at the kids football field with fold out chairs and people standing around talking but despite the distractions and obstacles around him you can see how athletic he is and how well he moves. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">His mother by SNITZEL a 1000m winner, a full sister to a Fireball Stakes winner who won 4 races at 1100m.&nbsp; From the family of TRUE JEWELS a Group 1 winner at 2.&nbsp; This pedigree matches what he looks like, all speed.</div>

TORONADO or SNITZEL

The Torque Xpress

This a very sharp, precocious Colt by the hottest young sire to stand in Australia in recent times, the Champion First Season Sire TOO DARN HOT.&nbsp; His stock include 5 stakes winners already including the Champion 2YO BROADSIDING, Group 2 winners TOO DARN DISCREET, TOO DARN LIZZIE.&nbsp; We are lucky we bought 2 Colts by him this year as they will be beyond us at the next round of sales. He is the first foal of a mare who was a winner on debut as a 2YO before being stakes placed as a baby.&nbsp; His first trial, video here, was just a soft bowl around for education but you can see that Andrew Mallyon just sat quietly and you will understand why we are surprised there is a share still available in him.

This TOO DARN HOT Colt has now trialed well 

Torque So Hot

This son of the Champion 2YO is Magic Millions and Bobs eligible and we think we've done a great job to get him for around half of the first day average at a very strong opening session at the Magic Millions.&nbsp; He is a lovely yearling who is very much in his fathers mold not only in colour but with his great girth and body strength.&nbsp; He has loads of leg and scope and moves so very well. MICROPHONE is described by Godolphin as "The&nbsp;best two-year-old son&nbsp;of the&nbsp;best two-year-old sire: Exceed And Excel." A winner of the strongest running of the ATC Sires Produce Stakes for many years MICROPHONE defeated Group 1 winners LOVING GABY, CASTELVECCHIO, KIAMICHI and PROBABEEL.&nbsp; Wet ground and a conservative ride cost the horse winning the Golden Slipper where he finished a great second. He is out of the multiple City winner SHOW AFFECTION whose yearlings have sold to $625,000.&nbsp; Two of her first 3 Colts showed enough ability to be traded to Hong Kong.&nbsp; Her 3YO has had one trial at Randwick for a good 2nd and her HELLBENT 2YO has had one jump out in Melbourne.&nbsp; Her first 5 foals have all shown some ability in public.

This Filly is so straight forward.&nbsp; Each time we had her out, including minutes before she went to the ring, she was relaxed and nothing bothered her and she was in a very busy row of horses at the sale. She is correct in front, has good width and strength to her hocks and a lovely shape to her hindquarter. She has wonderful movement and has a great long stride with no effort at all.&nbsp; She may not be early, there is lots of ZABEEL in her, but she is loaded with quality.&nbsp; This Filly is a half sister to KAVAK a winner of his very first start before gaining a start in the Magic Millions as a 2YO who has trained on to win 7 races &amp; is still racing well as a 6YO.&nbsp; She is also a half sister to our own MAJORELLE who has overcome injury and should certainly be unbeaten at all 3 starts since joining our stable and he is a horse that we like and is heading for Saturday success in the near future. CASTELVECCHIO was some race horse running second in the Cox Plate to arguably the best horse in the world at that time.&nbsp; He was able to defy his pedigree and run at the elite level at 2 winning the ATC Champagne Stakes beating LOVING GABY.&nbsp; We have a lovely 2YO Filly by the stallion who has good talent and has performed very well in a jump out. She shows great speed so we are keen to buy stock by CASTELVECCHIO.

Amazigh Torque

SPIRIT OF BOOM, a proven sire of 26 stakes winners, and there aren't a lot of stakes races in Queensland, 17 of those stakes winners are Fillies!!!!&nbsp; He has 5 individual stakes winners this season. 
<div style="text-align: justify;">This is a lovely Filly by a leading stallion, Magic Millions &amp; QTIS eligible and we bought her for just $100,000.&nbsp; We loved a couple of SPIRIT OF BOOM Fillies in Book 1 and they made $300,000 and more and I can tell you now that this Filly is not $200,000 less a Filly. This Filly was bred on the famed pasture of Widden Stud which is a great start to her life.&nbsp; She is the first foal of a young, fast WRITTEN TYCOON mare. She fell to the last couple of hours of a long 7 day sale &amp; she was one of many bargains in the back end of the sale for people who were committed to the task of finding a nice horse for people to race. I don't need to tell you we bought DERRY GROVE out of Magic Millions Book 2. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">There is so much to come for her physically in coming months.&nbsp; She has length, great girth, a great hip and hindquarter, just a great shape, so much better at the sale than when I saw her at the farm and when the sale photo &amp; video was taken.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"> This is a lovely Filly who will only improve in time to come.</div>

She is the SPIRIT of value

Celebrity Torque

COLEMAN produced a huge performance to run second in the Golden Slipper and our most recent purchase from the QTIS Yearling Sale a lovely Filly by his sire PIERATA who we think is a good stallion in the making with 4 stakes performers already. This Filly has so much quality and class, wait and see how much she improves in the next 12 months.&nbsp; She is leggy, with great scope and moves beautifully. A quality PIERATA Filly eligible for both QTIS and the Magic Millions race series.

A most elegant Filly

Zig Zag Torque

What a sweet Filly &amp; a 3/4 sister to our own TRIBECA STAR who qualified and will represent the stable in the $1,000,000 Country Championship at Randwick on the 6th April.&nbsp;&nbsp; She is nice and short in the back, has a great girth and lovely full body to her.&nbsp; She has a great shape &amp; strength to her hindquarter and she is a 3/4 sister to our very own TRIBECCA STAR. She was bred on extraordinary country high up in the Upper Hunter ground we know breeds good horses. She is by the first season sire GRAFF who won his first 3 race starts, 2 at 2, and then easily won the San Domenico Stakes. He was a great 3rd in the Group 1 Golden Rose behind THE AUTUMN SUN and ZOUSAIN.&nbsp; He returned in the Autumn and was beaten a length in the Lightning and the Newmarket. He might prove to be very undersold as a stallion. There is only a small share of this Filly left for us to sell, she is not much money and we like her a lot.&nbsp; She has been broken in and is now having a well earned rest before she returns to the stables in a couple of months.
