Crossley Thoroughbreds Primed for Premier

Sponsored Content - by Tara Madgwick - Sunday February 23

Crossley Thoroughbreds is a comparatively new name in the Inglis Premier vendor index having made an eye-catching debut last year when they sold 14 yearlings for $1.7million and Mitch Pearce is ready to go again at Oaklands Junction with an even bigger draft this time around.

With ongoing support from satisfied clients at last year’s sale, Crossley Thoroughbreds will present a draft of 25 with a great mix of proven and promising sires sure to tempt buyers.

Toronado (IRE) provided the three top selling yearlings in the Crossley draft last year and this top class G1 sire is set to make an impact again for the team with Lot 441, a stylish bay filly from Group II placed Sayahailmary, who has had seven foals to race and all are winners.

This filly is a half-sister to Group II winner Mella Maria, the dam of this season’s Group placed three year-old Wanaruah, with the family also producing stakes-winners Vinland and Valliano.

Champion sire Written Tycoon is riding the crest of a wave with an outstanding crop of three year-olds currently flying his flag and for his many fans Lot 259 will be a must inspect as this filly from La Paris is a full sister to Group III Gold Coast Guineas winner Hightail, stakes-placed Poppin’ Champagne and speedy filly Je Suis Tycoon, who won the Warrnambool VOBIS Gold Strike.
