The half-brother to G1 winner Youngstar will be a highlight for Bowness at ClassicBased at Young in New South Wales, John North's Bowness Stud sell at all the major sales in Australia and their drafts in 2016 included a High Chaparral (IRE) filly who is now the best Australian bred staying mare in the country.
