Rare International Gem Highlights Rushton Park Premier Draft

Tara Madgwick - Thursday March 1
The Rushton Park draft of 20 for the 2018 Inglis Premier Yearling Sale features a host of lovely prospects but none more interesting than the one and only yearling in Australia by leading US sire Into Mischief.

A Storm Cat line sire by Harlan's Holiday, Into Mischief was the leading sire of three year-olds in North America in 2017 with his best offspring highlighted by triple Group I winner Practical Joke, who has been retired to stud at Coolmore in Kentucky.

At age 13, Into Mischief is a sire on the up and stands this year at a fee of $US100,000, so this colt representes a very rare opportunity to by a son of one of the best younger stallions in North America.

Lot 172 Colt Into Mischief x Supermoon (USA), by Malibu Moon



Third foal of an unraced sister to Group II winner Malibu Pier from French stakes-winner and US Group II winner Blue Moon.
