One to Watch – Kembla

Tara Madgwick - Friday December 15

From last to first, this lightly raced Dundeel filly was an eye-catching winner at Kembla on Thursday in a $60,000 Super Maiden.

Prepared by Chris Waller and one of four in the 1400m maiden for the champion trainer, Mare of Mt Buller was easy in the market and allowed to drop back to last by Tyler Schiller.

She appeared a forlorn hope turning for home, but unleashed a super sprint to charge past her rivals and win by three-quarters of a length over the hot favourite Equipage, a Godolphin homebred filly by Lonhro.

Mare of Mt Buller was a $250,000 Inglis Classic purchase.

A $250,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Yes Bloodstock from the Torryburn Stud draft, Mare of Mt Buller is a half-sister to Group III placed Light Up the Room and is the fourth winner from four foals to race from Aliberani, a metro winning Redoute’s Choice grand-daughter of Group I AJC Australian Oaks winner Savana City.

It’s been a prolific Black Type family and includes this year’s Group II MRC Thousand Guineas winner Coeur Volante. A quick look at Family Search shows five entries for upcoming sales from this family, click to see them.

Aliberani was on-sold by Torryburn Stud last year for $120,000 through Inglis Digital and her last yearling for them was another Dundeel filly that made $160,000 at Inglis Classic this year.

Torryburn Stud have strong entries for upcoming sales with 10 for Magic Millions and 11 for Inglis Classic.
