The second million dollar yearling of the sale for Emirates Park, the colt from imported stakes-winner Red Lodge is the second foal of his dam, but is her first in Australia.

The daughter of Midshipman had a filly by Tassort last spring and was then covered by I am Invincible.

$1.1million Not a Single Doubt colt from Rhodamine.

The last crop of yearlings by Not a Single Doubt are a hot commodity and the colt from Rhodamine was offered by Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm and is a full brother to Group placed Legend of Condor and this season’s 2YO Pantonario, who made $750,000 at this sale last year.

Sadly for Lauriston Thoroughbred Farm, this colt is the last foal from Rhodamine, who died in 2020.
