Another Metro Winner for Hallowed Crown

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday July 7

Featured in the current Breednet Price Point story for proven sires at an $11,000 fee, Hallowed Crown produced a promising metropolitan winner at Randwick on Wednesday trained by Team Hawkes.

Never further back than fourth in four previous attempts, Silly Point was a close and unlucky second when resuming from a spell at Canterbury last month and made amends for that defeat with a determined victory.

He hit the line hard for Tommy Berry to win the 1150m maiden by a head.



Silly Point was a $17,000 Inglis Classic Highway Session purchase for his owners from the Murrulla Stud draft and has already won nearly $60,000 in prizemoney.

Bred by Parsons Creek Pastoral, Silly Point is the first foal from All Night Girl, an unraced half-sister by Manhattan Rain to Group II winner My Emotion and to the dam of Group I winner Seabrook.

This is the Tennessee Midnight branch of the famed ‘Tennessee’ family that has also produced Group I winner Aloha and her brilliant Group II winning daughter Libertini.

Silly Point is the 39th Aussie winner for Hallowed Crown, who is somewhat of a quiet achiever sitting in third place on the Third Crop Sires List by earnings behind only the big guns Deep Field and Toronado (IRE).

Hallowed Crown is a value sire at $11,000 this spring.

His 39 winners have won over $6.4 million, a sum flattered by the big sum of money won by his star daughter Colette when winning the $7.5million Golden Eagle last spring.

Colette aside, Hallowed Crown still has good overall stats with a seasonal 52% winner to runner strike rate and Lillemor another stakes-winner for him this year.

The dual Group I winning son of Street Sense (USA) stands at Twin Hills Stud at a fee of $11,000.
