Hat Trick of Million Dollar Colts Sold by Vinery Stud

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday April 6

2021 has started in a memorable way for Vinery Stud with the announcement of exciting new stallion Ole Kirk, the satisfaction of selling another Group I winning 2YO in Artorius and now selling three colts for upwards of $1million at Inglis Easter on Tuesday.

The day started with a bang when they sold Lot 5, an Exceed and Excel colt from Peace Force for $2.1million to Tony Fung Investments, read about him here.

Bred by A List Stud, the colt is a brother-in-blood to Group III winner Manicure and the first foal of Sanity, who was bought from the Godolphin draft at the 2019 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale for $800,000 when carrying this colt.

Making it a hat trick was Lot 139, the Snitzel colt from Group III winner Turbo Miss that was snapped up by Ciaron Maher Bloodstock for $1,150,000.
 



“He’s from a family going places and has a stallion’s pedigree,” Ciaron Maher told Inglis’s Jemma Cutting.

“He’s been bought for existing clients and is mostly all sold.”

Bred by John Stuart Investments, who also bred his mother, the colt is a three-quarter brother-in-blood to dual Group I winner and promising young sire Russian Revolution being the first foal of well bred Sebring mare Turbo Miss, who is also a half-sister to the dam of this season’s Group II ATC Silver Slipper stakes winner Home Affairs.

Turbo Miss has a colt foal by The Autumn Sun and is in foal to Deep Field.
