Fresh after the win of their record breaking colt Don Eduardo in Saturday's
        Group One Australian Derby at Randwick, the Gooree Pastoral Company have purchased a colt
        closely related to their latest star for $550,000.Bidding for the striking bay colt kicked off at $350,000 and then rose in
        $25,000 increments before being knocked down by auctioneer Reg Inglis to Gooree for
        $550,000. 
        Like Don Eduardo, the colt was offered by Sir Patrick and
        Lady Justine Hogan's Cambridge Stud. 
        The filly is out of the winning Ahonoora nare Abbaye, a half
        sister to the brilliant stakes winners Danewin and Commands. 
        Abbaye is already the dam of Taimana, a Woodman filly, who
        was a recent stakes winner at Flemington. Her three runners on the track to date have all
        been winners.
