Tara Madgwick - Tuesday April 5

$675,000 Pierro colt from Breakfast in Bed.

The Segenhoe Stud 2YO’s have been racing up a storm this season with stakes success for Seven Veils (Shalaa (IRE) and Amelia’s Jewel (Siyouni) as well as exciting 2YO colts Let’srollthedice (Dundeel) and Millane (Zoustar) with the expectation this colt could follow suit.

He was bought as a prospective sire for Victoria by the Rosemont-Victorian Alliance/Suman Hedge BS/David Redvers BS partnership, who have already achieved significant success in their goal of purchasing stallions of the future.

Two of their acquisitions from last year are current season stakes-winning colts Brereton (Zoustar) and Millane (Zoustar), who are well on their way to delivering on their potential.

This dashing brown colt comes with a big pedigree being from stakes-placed Breakfast in Bed, a half-sister to Group I winner Oohood from the Singles Bar branch of the Easy Date family that has also produced leading sire Not a Single Doubt.

Breakfast in Bed produced a colt by Zoustar last year and is now in foal to Snitzel.
