Orbis Bloodstock bought two of the three most expensive colts by Brazen Beau at the 2019 Inglis Premier Yearling Sale with the dearest being recently retired Group III winner North Pacific and the other made a winning debut at Hawkesbury on Tuesday.
Trained by Team Hawkes, as was Group I ATC Golden Rose place-getter North Pacific, Imposing Beau has taken a little longer to come to hand and is now a gelding.
He looked good in a recent barrier trial win and had no trouble scoring an easy victory in the 1100m maiden as a short priced favourite. Imposing Beau led for Tim Clark and was strong to the line under a hands and heels ride.
Imposing Beau was a $560,000 Inglis Premier purchase for Orbis Bloodstock from the Springmount draft and is the second winner from Sistine Princess, a half-sister by O’Reilly to Group III winner Jukebox.
It’s a reliable Black Type family featuring Group I winner Ihtsahymn and prolific Group winning sprinter Catapulted.
Brazen Beau has had a good season siring his first Group I winner in New Zealand trained juvenile On the Bubbles and stands at Darley Victoria this spring at a fee of $49,500.
