Well, you know what they say, buy the one you want, not the one you're left with. And this is him, a strong grey colt by one of the most untapped talents on the Australian Stallion roster in TASSORT. Donalds Racing Bloodstock agent Todd Hughes notes are as follows “A beast, who is big strong, and won’t take forever to get to the races. Whatever he does at 2YO is a plus, he shapes up as a serious Guineas prospect “

We are thrilled to have John McArdle from Redgum Racing train this horse at Mornington. John is a multiple group 1 performing trainer, with the likes of HOLLOW BULLET, LA ROCQUE and recent Group 1 performer MY GLADIOLA.

This colt is a head turner, we genuinely believed he was one of the best walking colts on the complex. He is a powerful and athletic type, he has muscle in all the right places. He will get up and run at 2 and will be aimed towards the spring Guineas as a 3yo. He’s from Kia Ora Stud, who you wouldn't believe it……The last grey John McArdle purchased from this farm is up and coming sprinting star MY GLADIOLA, who is a $1m earner as 2YO/3YO and is ready to race this Autumn in all the major GROUP 1 SPRINTING RACES.

THE SIRE – TASSORT “FAST, TOUGH AND A HIGH CLASS 2 AND 3YO”
The time is now to buy yearlings by TASSORT before they get priced out of the market, he throws early running, and fast types. He was an elite juvenile and early three-year-old performer, demonstrating high-class speed andcompetitiveness at the highest level of Australian racing. TASSORT was high-qualityracehorse, recording four wins and three placings from nine starts, with careerprizemoney of approximately $1.1 million. His race record includes victories in theGolden Slipper Stakes (Group 1), the Silver Slipper Stakes (Group 2), and theRun To The Rose (Group 2). He also finished second in the Golden Rose Stakes(Group 1), confirming his ability to compete against the best horses of hisgeneration.

THE DAM – SUGGESTONS
A very handy mare herself on the racetrack, a winner of three races between 1200 to 1400 earning her price tag back and some. She was a runner in the Dunstan Rising Star Qualifier, now doing it in the breeding barn she is the mare of three-time winner SO YOU SUGGEST, who has won races from 1100 to 1300.
