For the first time in history a yearling by the king of the
New Zealand breeding scene Zabeel is being offered at the Adelaide Magic Millions Yearling
Sale.
A member of the quality packed Collingrove Stud draft, the
New Zealand born colt (pictured above) comes from a black type filled family.
His dam is a lightly raced daughter of Caerleon who is a
half sister to Regal Sabre and the dams of both Group One winner Carmine Lake and
Melbourne stakes performer Pushy Dancer.
Zabeel needs no introduction as a sire. Let’s just hit
you with some of his progeny. Might and Power. Octagonal. Zonda. Sky Heights. Hades.
Cronus. Jezabeel. Bezeal Bay. Mouawad. Champagne. Zacheline. Dignity Dancer. Able Master.
Our Unicorn. They are all by Zabeel and so is this bloke.
Tillyard, the colt’s dam who’s only runner is a
city placegetter for Gai Waterhouse, is a daughter of the three time American Group One
winner Royal Heroine.
With significant crosses of the mighty bloodlines possessed
by Round Table and Northern Dancer, this colt has a pedigree to make him a star of the
future. |
