Fresh from selling the sale-topper at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale in Sydney when their colt by The Autumn Sun from Talimena sold for $520,000, Fergal Connolly and his team at Valiant Stud are now focusing on Magic Millions Adelaide where they will present five youngsters by five different sires and they will be available for inspection from Thursday.

Valiant Stud sold the sale-topper at Inglis Classic this year.

Valiant Stud have a proven track record as a source of quality horses with current star performers plucked from their drafts including Group I winning mare Kimochi and Golden Slipper contender North England and their sale in Adelaide kicks off early with Lot 51.

Wild Ruler filly from Ollagua is from the family of G1 winning 2YO Return to Conquer.

From the first crop of Snitzel’s Group I winning sprinter Wild Ruler, this powerful bay filly is the first foal of Ollagua, an unraced Fastnet Rock mare with a big pedigree.

She is a grand-daughter of Group II winner Portillo, the dam of Group II winner Ghisoni (dam of SW Renosu) and the dam of Group III winner Larkspur Run. An exciting new addition to the family unbeaten 2YO colt Return to Conquer, who won the Group I Sistema Stakes in New Zealand last Saturday and is by Wild Ruler’s sire Snitzel.
