Rubick is on a rollResuming from a spell, the filly was easy in the market but was strong to the line taking a split between runners to score a nose win in the 1100 metre juvenile maiden.

An $80,000 Inglis Classic purchase for Triple Crown from the Torryburn Stud draft, Chelsea Reign is the first winner from Chelsea Hotel, a Dylan Thomas (IRE) daughter of imported stakes-winner Chelsey's Image (USA).

Torryburn sold a yearling colt by Dundeel from Chelsea Hotel at the recent Inglis Classic Sale for $120,000 and she has a No Nay Never (USA) weanling filyl to follow.

Chelsea Hotel is now back in foal to Rubick, who has had a fee increase this year at Coolmore rising to $38,500 this year off the back of his good results on the track and in the sale ring.
