For Sale by: Peter & Paul Snowden
Having had tremendous success with middle distance prospects HUETOR (G1 Doomben Cup) and OLD FLAME (G2 LINLITHGOW), Snowden Racing sought a filly capable of developing into a Classic three-year-old type.
Looking to execute this plan required purchasing a filly by a proven stallion of Classic material and SHAMUS AWARD ticks every box. His rise to prominence over the past 18 months has been extraordinary with the likes of multiple Group One winner, DUAIS and Oaks winners EL PATRONESS and MEDIA AWARD alongside Caulfield Cup winner INCENTIVISE.
The mighty WINX was sourced from the Gold Coast complex, so it is not just a sale of two-year-old types.
Purchased in conjunction with Laurel Oak Bloodstock who loved her physically alongside their deep diving pedigree analysis, she was a must have.
With so much prizemoney available for the taking over 1600m, this filly looks the perfect candidate on pedigree and type. Did you know that there are 38 races worth over $1m run over 1600m and beyond in Australia?
We felt she was the best SHAMUS AWARD physical on the complex with athleticism to match her strength which she used effortlessly at the walk.
With that knowledge, we look forward to developing this filly into a top class middle distance prospect.
She is currently at our Randwick stable completing her first full four week preparation in the stable.
