Kerrie Tibbey and the Goodwood Farm team have had a hand in the raising of some seriously good horses over the years and their draft of nine for the Inglis HTBA May Yearling Sale on Sunday features some hidden gems including the only colt in the sale by Blue Diamond winner Daumier’s sire Epaulette.
$1.6million earning Group I ATC Epsom Handicap winner Private Eye was foaled and raised at Goodwood Farm, as was dual Group I winning sprinter Rebel Dane, who has now emerged as one of the most exciting young sires in the country thanks to his champion 2YO Filly Fireburn, who also spent time at Goodwood Farm as a weanling.
Another star graduate of the Murrurundi based nursery is $1.1million earning sprinter The Astrologist, who has notched up multiple Group wins and placings and went close to Group I success when beaten narrowly in this year’s Group I VRC Newmarket Handicap.
