Star Foals for Vinery

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday September 13

The Breednet Foal Gallery is in full swing and two high profile foals sent in by Vinery are well worth a look being a half-brother to an Australian G1 winner by Frankel and a half-brother to current season Group II winner Roots.

Frankel colt from Cleanup.

This gorgeous Frankel colt is the ninth foal of Cleanup, who was bought by Bromfield Park for $260,000 at the 2020 Inglis Chairman’s Sale when in foal to The Autumn Sun.

Cleanup is a star producer having had five foals to race and all are winners headed by dual Group I winner Nettoyer, who captured the G1 ATC Doncaster Handicap and Queen of the Turf Stakes among her seven wins earning over $2.5million in prizemoney.

Nettoyer sold for $1.3million at the Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale last year to Trilogy Racing not in foal having missed to Snitzel after producing a filly by Capitalist in her first season at stud.

Exceedance colt from Arctic Success.

This handsome bay colt by Exceedance is the sixth foal of Arctic Success, a half-sister to Golden Slipper winner Polar Success. She has also done the job at stud with three winners from four foals to race highlighted by Group II ATC Emancipation Stakes winner Roots, who has earned over $600,000 in prizemoney.
