Shamus Award X Ingrid

“This is the best stallion the mother has been to and the outcome you see is a beautiful, well balanced colt with plenty of style and presence about him.” – Kerry Parker

KEY FACTORS

• By one of the most versatile stallions in the country SHAMUS AWARD – sire of supreme stayers like INCENTIVISE & DUAIS, tough milers like MR QUICKIE & BRUTALITY (trained by Joe Pride), sharp sprinters like SWATS THAT & WILLAIDOW as well as Proven’s stakes winner THE BLACK CLOUD
• SHAMUS AWARD also throws immense durability into this stock – 15.1% of his offspring have had at least 30 race starts, compared with leading sire ZOUSTAR (11.5%)
• Line bred to STORM BIRD via STORM CAT & SNOW FINCH – the same pedigree pattern seen in SHAMUS AWARD’s 3 x Group 1 winner DUAIS & SNITZEL stallion IN THE CONGO
• Out of a winning American mare whose 2 foals to race have both won, including the three-quarter sister MINTULEE (6 x winner, $35,000 RUSSIAN REVOLUTION yearling)
• Despite limited numbers, North American broodmares have been hugely successful in Australia – particularly when mated with the REDOUTE’S CHOICE sireline – TREASURETHE MOMENT, RUSSIAN REVOLUTION, WILD RULER, SWITZERLAND, HOT SNITZEL etc
• Second dam was 4th in Group 3 company at Royal Ascot & went on to become an outstanding producer at stud – 38 race wins between her 9 raced foals including Grade 1 victor SEAN AVERY & 3 Listed performers!
