Keysbrook – the dam of recent G1-winning 2YO She’s Extreme – is the latest in a string of high-profile entries for next month’s Inglis Chairman’s Sale.
A four-time Stakes placegetter as a 3YO race filly, Keysbrook has already confirmed herself a star broodmare with just her second foal to race, She’s Extreme (pictured), a $275,000 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale graduate, winning the G1 Champagne Stakes at Randwick little over a week ago.
Her first foal – and only other foal to race – Ruru is a four-time winner across three Australian States, having been a $250,000 purchase at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale.
Keysbrook joins Stakes winner and dual G1 placegetter Harmony Rose, Stakes producer Perfect Persuasion (in foal to the world’s hottest stallion Extreme Choice), talented Group placed mare Don’ttelltheboss, a share in Extreme Choice plus well-bred young mare First Channel in foal to Zoustar as part of a strong and diverse catalogue for the 2022 Chairman’s Sale.
Randwick Bloodstock’s Brett Howard, who will offer Keysbrook as part of the Glenesk Thoroughbreds draft which will also include dual G1 winner Shout The Bar and G2 winner Only Words among its mares, described Keysbrook as “a high-quality broodmare’’.
“She was a 2YO winner herself and trained on to place in a Derby and an Oaks and I’m extremely confident buyers will love her when they see her,’’ Howard said.
“You can look at her and see why she was a good racehorse and she’s throwing that into her produce as well, as reflected by their results in the sale ring.
“She’s a beautiful mare, everyone will see that when they pull her out of the box, she’s medium sized with nice strength and scope, a good shoulder, nice girth, just a quality type.’’
On She’s Extreme, Howard added: “She’s so adaptable, she won a 1200m G3 and a 1600m G1 and you’d like to think she’ll train on in the spring and beyond.
“She’s likely to be targeted toward a Golden Rose (1400m) and maybe a Flight Stakes (1600m) and she could even end up in a race like the Cox Plate (2040m), her pedigree suggests she should run a strong 2000m.
“It’s one of those families that has been very versatile, they’ve been able to win at two and train on so I suspect this filly will as well.’’
