Sponsored Content - by Tara Madgwick - Monday Jan 11

Lime Country Thoroughbreds have a great draft of 15 for Magic Millions Book 1 that includes a very rare grey colt by Fastnet Rock that is turning heads at the Gold Coast this week.

Lot 29 is the first foal of Alice Island, a winning half-sister to Group III winner Miss Steele, and owes his grey colouring to third dam Princess Phoenix, a daughter of renowned grey New Zealand based sire Three Legs (GB).
