$1.5 Million for Greysful Glamour

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday May 25

Glorious grey Stratum mare Greysful Glamour has been a stalwart of the Mark Newnham stable since he started training and she certainly made a splash at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale on Tuesday when selling for $1.5million.
 



Consigned by Widden Stud on behalf of her adoring syndicate of Darby Racing owners, Greysful Glamour was secured by the Written Tycoon Syndicate so will be headed to Victoria for a date with the champion sire at Yulong Stud this spring.

Greysful Glamour was well named and we can't wait to see her foals!

A multiple Group winner that was second in the Group I ATC Australian Oaks, Greysful Glamour has won nearly $900,000 in prizemoney proving an amazing investment for her owners having been bought as a yearling from the Session II part of Inglis Easter for just $90,000 by Darby Racing / De Burgh Equine.
