Consigned by Mane Lodge, the handsome bay was bought by China Horse Club / Newgate Bloodstock / Trilogy and is the fifth foal from To Dubawi Go, a six time metro winner by champion European sire Dubawi.



The family features Group III winner McClintock and stakes-winners Little Pattie and Fifteen Carat tracing back to Group I placed Palmyra Bay, a three-quarter sister to Group I winner Just Now.
 


To Dubawi Go has a colt to follow by Unite and Conquer and was covered last spring by another Newgate sire in Cosmic Force.

Extreme Choice is leading the sire averages at this sale and still has two more lots to be offered.
