Another win for More Patasi

Media Release - Thursday May 3

gavelhouse,com Australia graduate More Patasi notched up his second win for his new connections at Grafton on Monday and has now returned more than three times his purchase price.

With a hefty 62.5kg impost unable to weigh him down, More Patasi flew home from 10^th on the turn over 1106m to win by over a length.

"He's relishing the easier company," commented owner Mark White.

"We have also had regular visits to him from the chiropractor and acupuncturist which have made a big difference to him with him having now been successful in two of his four starts for us since we bought him on gavelhouse.com."

Bought online for just $6,250, More Patasi has now returned a healthy $23,090 with White and trainer Julie Hodder keen to see where More Patasi can go as they aim for more lucrative targets around the Northern Rivers and South East Queensland.

By MORE THAN READY, More Patasi is from the stakes-placed Patasi (Danehill Dancer) who is a daughter of Gr.3 Tristarc Stakes winner PROCRASTINATE (Jade Hunter) making her a half to stakes-winners LASSERFAIRE, A TIME FOR JULIA, TIME THIEF, FOREPLAY and PERSONIFY.

Former Chris Waller-trained galloper Mister McIlroy (Fastnet Rock) also won for his new connections in recent days having his second start from the Garry Neale stable. He has already returned more than his $11,000 purchase price on gavelhouse.com to owners Grandview Lodge.

Currently for sale on gavelhouse.com Australia are 11 racing prospects by the likes of ALL TOO HARD , SAVABEEL , STRATUM and STRYKER plus two breeding propositions including Group Two placed winner of five Vitalism (Vital Equine). Bidding closes from 7pm AEST on Monday 7 May.
