Elsdon Park Welcome First Foal for Season

Breednet - Monday August 21

Elsdon Park welcomed its first foal for the season over the weekend, courtesy of the arrival of a smart Ardrossan colt from the Pins mare Cosmic. 

Pictured at just a few hours old, this colt hails from a family that features Gr.1 winners Probabeel, Never Been Kissed and Savvy Coup, along with black-type standouts such as Legless Veuve, Tootsie, and Ocean Emperor.

Fittingly, this colt is by the exciting young Waikato Stud sire Ardrossan, who was raced by Elsdon Park's Lib Petagna and who the farm retains an interest in at stud.
