Entire Fairhill Farm Weanling Crop for Sale

Tara Madgwick - Thursday March 8
Mike and Debbie O'Donnell of Fairhill Farm have been riding the crest of a winning wave in recent months with the upcoming dispersal of their entire weanling crop at the Riverside Stables in Sydney next month sure to attract significant interest from bloodstock investors and pinhookers.

"We have 20 weanlings to be offered with Inglis in April, four of them in the elite Chairman's Sale," said Mike O'Donnell.

"The draft is made up of 14 colts and six fillies. All of them have the potential for exciting updates between now and yearling sale time next year with the half-brother to Fiesta a standout."

Fiesta wins the G3 Widden StakesBred and offered for sale by Fairhill Farm at Inglis Classic in 2017, Fiesta was snapped up by Star Thoroughbreds / Chris Waller Racing for $150,000 and has since won back her purchase price and then some.

The I Am Invincible filly won the Group III ATC Widden Stakes last month and was beaten just half a length when second last Saturday in the Group II ATC Sweet Embrace Stakes.

She now heads to the Group I ATC Golden Slipper and possibly beyond to The Championships.

The Fairhill Farm weanlings for the Chairman's Sale are:

Colt Outreach x Now Now – Half-brother to Fiesta from the first crop of Outreach, the full brother to Golden Slipper winner Overreach.

Colt So You Think x Blowin in the Wind (IRE ) – Three-quarter brother to Flemington stakes-winner Theanswermyfriend.

Colt Pierro x Sandy Desert (USA) – Half-brother to stakes-placed Desert Fox and smart winners Diamond Master (HK) and Yuma Desert.

Colt Shooting to Win x Touch of Greatness – Half-brother to stakes-placed Hair Trigger, now racing in HK.

The remaining weanlings to be offered at the Inglis Australian Weanling Sale are by sires such as: Artie Schiller (USA), Choisir, Deep Field, Dissident, Eurozone, Hinchinbrook, No Nay Never (USA), Rubick, Scissor Kick, Super One and Unencumbered.
