Group I Girls Highlight Torryburn Success

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday April 2
The 2019 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale is fast approaching and if we needed any further evidence of Torryburn Stud being a serious Group I vendor we saw it in the Group I ATC Coolmore Classic last month with the first two past the post, Dixie Blossoms and El Dorado Dreaming both foaled and raised at the Cornish family run farm.

Dixie Blossoms was foaled and raised at TorryburnA homebred for Alan Osburg, Dixie Blossoms has won seven of 30 starts earning over $1.3million and was a deserved winner at the elite level following several seasons competing against the best mares in the land.

Runner-up El Dorado Dreaming won the Group I ATC Sires Produce Stakes last season as a bolter, but has since proven herself consistently in the best company and has won just shy of $1million in prizemoney.

Their success has added to the long list of notable Torryburn Stud graduates, either bred, sold or raised that include Group I winner Terravista, Hong Kong star Hot King Prawn and Group II winning course record holder Deploy.

The Torryburn Inglis Easter draft is as follows:
