Waller Racing Swoop on Blueblood Frankel at Tattersalls HIT

Tara Madgwick - Thursday October 30

The third session of the Tattersalls Autumn Horses in Training Sale is playing out and Chris Waller Racing are on the buyer’s list securing a blueblood three year-old colt by champion sire Frankel.

Pinhole was sold to Chris Waller Racing for 200,000 guineas.

A Juddmonte homebred that was trained by Ralph Beckett, Pinhole has won two of seven starts and sold for 200,000 guineas.

A big horse with a massive frame, he is going to be an interesting watch when he comes to Australia and gets the opportunity to mature and fill out.

Pinhole is a full brother to Group I winner Quadrilateral and his dam Nimble Thimble is a half-sister to Group II winner Three Valleys and also to a mare called Back Pass (USA) that made her way to Australia where she left Group winners Scissor Kick and Sharkbite.

Third dam Kerali has spawned a whole dynasty of stakes- winners for Juddmonte that include celebrated blue hen Hasili and her myriad of G1 winning descendants, so Pinhole lacks for nothing in pedigree.

The sale continues.
