Farnan Half-Sister Bolts in at Warwick Farm

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday August 20

When a half-sister by Zoustar to Golden Slipper winner Farnan sells for just $250,000 at Inglis Easter you would be entitled to wonder what was wrong with her, but it turns out lack of size does not mean lack of ability.

The Chris Waller trained three year-old filly Beside the Ocean has been showing abundant talent at the trials and was a good second on debut at Randwick last month.

Given time to regroup from that outing she made light of the heavy 10 ground and her little fairy feet skipped across the ground to win the 1300m maiden by nearly four lengths.

Beside the Ocean picked up a lucrative $100,000 Inglis Xtra Bonus for her win.

Beside the Ocean was bought by Cunningham Thoroughbreds Pty Ltd / Clarke Bloodstock from the Vinery Stud draft and runs for the Cunningham owned enterprise Ridgmont.

Bred by Phoenix Thoroughbreds, she is a half-sister to Champion 2YO Colt and now leading young sire Farnan and Group placed stakes-winner Sandbar being the fifth winner from five foals to race from Group III winning Street Cry (IRE) mare Tallow.

Tallow produced another filly by Zoustar last year and is due to foal to Shinzo.
