We are delighted offer shares in an eye-catching prospect in training with Gary Moore, based in West Sussex. This horse was purchased at the recent Tattersalls Breeze Up Sales & is a well bred 2-year son by multiple Group 1 winner Australia. He is set to be a long-term prospect with the scope to potentially go jumping in the future.
This un-named colt is by Group 1 Derby winner Australia who won 5 races during his career including the Group 3 Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf Trial Stakes at 2, Group 1 British and Irish Derby’s and Group 1 Juddmonte International Stakes and in addition was placed in the Group 1 2000 Guineas and Irish Champion Stakes. He reached a career high rating of 127 and it comes as no surprise that he has gone onto be a successful Sire responsible for the likes of Broome, Order Of Australia and Bangkok to name but a few.
The Dam Night Fairy is appealing too – a winner over 1m2f and regularly placed. She has produced several winning foals including Group 3 Chartwell Stakes winner Majestic Queen, bumper winner Fair Star, and debutant winner Stars So Bright. She is by the top class Sire Danehill & out of a 1m5f winning Dam who has produced 8 winners from 11 foals of racing age, including her sister Fairy of the Night.
We were not only attracted to this horse’s pedigree and his conformation (he has a deep jaw, strong body, is very correct, an athletic walk and plenty of scope to grow & strengthen further) but also his hammer price. We feel he is very good value for owners looking to get involved in a long-term prospect.
I think we have got a bargain here and I’m delighted to have him in my yard. Australia’s offspring tend to do both codes and I think the fact this lad is out of a Dam who produces both flat and National Hunt offspring bodes well for his future. He arrived fresh from the sales last week and is settling into the yard very well. He has a good mind for a 2yo that’s come from the breeze-ups and although it is early stages I like him a great deal.”
Trainer – Gary Moore
The plan is for the horse to remain at Gary’s yard for a couple of weeks to settle in and learn the Cisswood routine before he is turned away for a maturity break. He will recommence work at Gary’s from June time ready for an autumn campaign. Gary is confident he will race at 2 but ultimately we are looking at a 3yo career and beyond.

Australia by Galileo
Australia had a fantastic racing career winning a total of 5 races. He won on the second start of his career over 7f before going onto win the Group 3 Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf Trial Stakes over 1m at the age of 2. As a 3yo he was a Group 1 Derby winner, 3rd in the Group 1 2000 Guineas (beaten just 3/4L) and a Group 1 Irish Derby winner. He also won the Group 1 Juddmonte International Stakes at York at the age of 4 before finishing 2nd in the Group 1 Irish Champion Stakes.
He has a 47% success strike rate with his flat offspring and also has a good record over jumps with hurdle winner Lord Lamington, 2-time hurdle winner Metal Man and hurdle winner Fraser Island.
Night Fairy by Danehill
Night Fairy was a 1m2f winner who went onto be a decent Broodmare. She has produced many winners, many of whom have gone onto do well at stud themselves including Majestic Queen who won on her debut at 2 before going onto win 4 more times, twice at Group 3 level. She retired to stud to produce 4-time Black Type winner Maria Amalia.
5yo Lincoln Bright raced from the age of 3 and was placed in a Listed race, 6yo Fair Star won on bumper debut at 3 before going onto win 2 more times and is still racing today, Starts So Bright was a debutant winner at 3 over 1m.
Group winner Order of Australia (by Australia and also out of a Danehill Mare) shows the cross can work and we are dreaming it can work again!
