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;">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>

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.

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

The full brother to this Colt last year we liked a whole lot and he was no better, not one ounce better, than this Colt and he made $325,000 at the Magic Millions.&nbsp; We liked another by the stallion at the same sale also with the Arrowfield brand and he made $350,000 and honestly they were no better Colts than this horse.&nbsp; Ours is a fashion business and what is in vogue today for $350,000 is not tomorrow but it absolutely is in fashion at $80,000.&nbsp; We love to buy against fashion as that is where true value lies. We are truly very lucky that he was early on Day 3 and Arrowfield take their horses to sales to sell them and they put a very reasonable reserve on him and we are now the lucky people who own him for such little money really.&nbsp; He is a 3/4 or 1/2 brother to 3 stakes performers.&nbsp; How did PROFIT not win a stakes race?&nbsp; RIFLEMAN a very good sprinter on his day.&nbsp; His mother OPPORTUNITY a proper 2YO winning twice at 2 and running 4th in a Blue Diamond.&nbsp; His great grandmother the very fast 2YO BEANS. Just 25% left in this lovely Colt call Matthew or Sue today, don't wait.

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

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.
