Fantastic Four from Edinburgh Park

Tara Madgwick - Sunday January 7
When you can produce sale-toppers and stakes-winners, your yearling draft will always be a must inspect and Edinburgh Park have four stunning youngsters to offer at Magic Millions this year that are guaranteed to please.

Ian Smith's boutique breeding operation has established a reputation for excellence driven by ongoing results on the track at the highest level.

A farm that has produced a world champion in Silent Witness, not to mention the likes of Bull Point, Sister Madly, Dances on Waves, Eximius, Amovatio and Golden Spin, Edinburgh Park is a brand to be respected.

AssimiliateNew stars are emerging all the time from Edinburgh Park and include this season's highly promising three year-olds Assimilate and Tamasa.

A $420,000 Magic Millions purchase in 2016 for China Horse Club/ WinStar Farm, three year-old Sebring colt Assimilate won his first two starts for the Peter and Paul Snowden stable in July last year.

He then finished second in the Group III ATC Ming Dynasty before surging home late for fifth in the Group I ATC Golden Rose after being slowly away.

A colt with Group I potential, he looks set to play a prominent role in the upcoming Autumn Carnivals.

Also looking toward stakes goals in the autumn with be the Darren Weir trained So You Think colt Tamasa.

A $160,000 Inglis Classic purchase, Tamasa won his first two starts at Warrnambool and Bendigo in October and November before finishing a luckless sixth in a Listed race at Flemington.

Given the talent he has shown, Tamasa he will no doubt have some big goals on his agenda in 2018.
