Inglis Digital Success Northern Eyes Wins Three on the Trot

Tara Madgwick - Thursday August 29

A $1.25million yearling colt by Zoustar, Northern Eyes didn’t make the grade as a sire prospect but the now four year-old gelding has hit a purple patch of form for his new trainer Kim Waugh after being snapped up on Inglis Digital for $155,000 in March this year.

Sold as a maiden, Northern Eyes was spelled and gelded and it’s been full steam ahead since then for his new owners who include The Racing League and he sports the colours of the NSW Tycoons.

Northern Eyes broke his maiden at his second run in the new colours at Hawkesbury on August 1 and then won again at the same venue on August 13 before heading to Newcastle for a 1500m Benchmark 68 event today.

He did best in a driving finish to win by a neck, so has had three starts this month and won all of them!

Northern Eyes made $1.25million as a yearling.

Northern Eyes is the first winner for Group III winning Written Tycoon mare Sexy Eyes, who had a Farnan filly make $500,000 at Magic Millions this year for Milburn Creek when bought by Suman Hedge Bloodstock.
