Everyone Loves a Grey

Tara Madgwick - Thursday February 27

First season shuttle sires have been warmly received at sales conducted so far this year and Inglis Premier is set to feature the largest draft at any sale so far by Darley’s  Victorian based shuttle sire Frosted (USA), a charismatic grey son of champion sire Tapit.

Frosted is a crowd pleaser!

Frosted is one of the most stunning looking sires to stand in Australia, his eye-catching grey good looks making him a favourite at stallion parades.

He had three yearlings sell earlier this year at Magic Millions at an average $303,333 with his top seller the half-sister to Group I winner Santa Ana Lane that made $650,000. Frosted was back in Victoria last spring  covering 105 mares.
