Sales action returns to the Gold Coast next week for the Magic Millions March Yearling Sale (March 11 and 12) and Lyndhurst Stud Farm will present a big draft of 34 featuring 19 youngsters by the farm’s flagship sire Better Than Ready.
Poised to crack his seasonal century of winners this week with 98 on the board, Better Than Ready is churning out quality winners headed by Group II winning colt Chrysaor and stakes horses The Vowels, Steady Ready, Better Get Set and Skirt the Law, who won the Magic Millions 2YO Classic last year.
His youngsters for this sale include the full brother to promising two year-old colt The Hamo, who has had just the one start for a close third in the $500,000 Magic Millions Debut (colts) back in January.
Offered as Lot 41, the colt is the second foal of unraced mare New Release, a half-sister to stakes-winner Moonlight Hussler from a female family tracing back to legendary matriarch Fanfreluche. He is an eye-catching individual stamped in the mould of his sire and comes from a family that has produced champion Australian sires Flying Spur and Encosta de Lago.
