Tara Madgwick - Monday April 8

2024 has been a pivotal year for Newgate Farm’s Extreme Choice with the first of his better bred yearlings being offered and he produced his fourth individual million dollar yearling this year at Inglis Easter when the flashy chestnut colt from Tempt Me Not made $1.4million.

$1.4million Extreme Choice colt from Tempt Me Not

Consigned by Newgate Farm on behalf of a joint venture between Newgate and Gooree Stud, the handsome colt was bought by Go Bloodstock Australia / Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott Racing / Kestrel Thoroughbreds, NSW.

He is the fourth foal of slick Group III winning filly Tempt Me Not, a grand-daughter  of Gooree Stud’s dual Group I winning filly Tempest Morn, who was trained by Waterhouse.

A diminutive daughter of Kentucky Derby winner Thunder Gulch (USA), Tempest Morn won the STC Ansett Australia Stakes and SAJC Australasian Oaks as well as placing in a further four Group I races. The family has had a good recent update with second dam Ganda producing this season’s stakes-winning juvenile filly Castanya.

Tempt Me Not has another colt to follow by Extreme Choice and is back in foal to him again.
