All The Right Moves!

Tara Madgwick - Monday November 25

Hugely successful WA owner breeders Bob and Sandra Peters went on their winning way at Ascot last Saturday winning the Group I WATC Railway Stakes with Regal Power, whose sire Pierro has given them a great deal of success, but it is another of the Coolmore sires in American Pharoah (USA), who has given them a foal this season that certainly has all the moves!

Pictured at Holbrook Thoroughbreds by Joan Faras, this athletic American Pharoah colt is a half-brother to 2019 Group II WATC West Australian Oaks winner Dark Choice from stakes-placed More Than Ready (USA) mare Dark Miss.


 

He's the second foal by American Pharoah for Dark Miss, who produced a filly last year by the Triple Crown winner, who has made a sensational start to his stud career and will finish 2019 as the Champion US First Crop Sire.

His first Australian progeny will be offered at sales in 2020.
