The handsome chestnut comes from a female family packed with Black Type, his dam a half-sister to a very good stakes-winner in Singapore in Spanish Bay, while Lucky Patch, who won Sunday’s Group II Premier Bowl winner at Sha Tin also appears in the pedigree.

Lot 54 is a striking son of exciting young sire Churchill (IRE), who has sired 22 first crop winners in Europe this year highlighted by three stakes-winners.
