Both have great quality with lovely markings and have good balance and presence . Both look very strong with a great hind quarter. They look all speed."

A juvenile stakes-winner at Saratoga, Mizzen Mast mare Iron Mizz (USA) is the dam of this cracking Menari colt, who is her first foal. He was bred by SF Bloodstock and Blake Sandblom Pty Ltd .

A big powerful horse that showed exceptional speed in his brief career of just eight starts, Menari stands at a fee of $16,500.
