Inglis Classic Next for Twin Hills

Sponsored Content - by Tara Madgwick - Tuesday February 4

In just their second year of selling, Olly Tait and his team at Twin Hills Stud have established a great reputation for producing quality youngsters with a 100% clearance rate and total sales of $2,085,000 at the recent Magic Millions Yearling Sale starting their year on a high.

For Inglis Classic 2020, Twin Hills will offer a diverse consignment of 11 yearlings including two from the first crop of the farm’s well credentialed young Snitzel stallion Odyssey Moon.

“I think we’ve got a really good lineup of horses for the Classic Sale this year,” said Olly Tait.

“It’s a sale that consistently produces good racehorses and I’m confident some success lies within our draft.”

A brilliant Group III winning sprinter that won the $250,000 Inglis Nursery and was also Group I placed at two, Odyssey Moon has six entries for this sale including the two colts below from Twin Hills.



Lot 503 Colt Odyssey Moon x Swish, by More Than Ready (USA)



Lot 629 Colt Odyssey Moon x Bright Heart, by Dane Shadow

“They are both lovely individuals,” Tait said.

“The colt out of Swish has a lot of class and the colt out of Bright Heart oozes power and strength.”

Lot 49 Filly Brazen Beau x Central Line (USA), by Redoute’s Choice



Half-sister to stakes-placed Snowstar and is the first Australian bred foal from a US bred daughter of Redoute’s Choice that was bred by Darley from their Australian bred stakes-winner Causeway Lass that was sent to stud in the Northern Hemisphere

“Brazen Beau looks like he’s a very good stallion. This filly is from a good producing mare and is from one of Australia’s very best families,” Tait pointed out.

Lot 50 Colt Extreme Choice x Chameleon, by Encosta de Lago



Half-brother to two metropolitan winners, the mare’s first two foals to race

“He’s a neat well balanced colt who should come to hand quickly. Extreme Choice was an outstanding colt and it’s exciting to have such a nice colt by him in our draft,” Tait said.

Lot 464 Colt Dundeel x Silenzia Blue, by Testa Rossa



Dam has had two foals to race both winners and next two dams are by breed shaping sires Sunday Silence and Sadler’s Wells.

“He’s a really nice colt in the mould of his father. He’s a great mover too,” Tait added.

See the draft at Barn I Stables 51 – 62.
