$350,000 Pinhook Winner for Written By

Tara Madgwick - Sunday Mar 29

Widden Stud’s value sire Written By only had one entry for Inglis Easter and that was a cracking chestnut colt from Solar Kitty that delivered a pinhook success for savvy New Zealand based vendor Lyndhurst Farm.

$170,000 Written By colt from Solar Kitty sold for $170,000 as a weanling.

Sourced by Lyndhurst from the Fernrigg Farm draft at the Inglis Australian Weanling Sale for $170,000, the colt from Solar Kitty grew and developed as was hoped and presented in great style at Riverside Stables with a pedigree update as his dam has now had two to race and both are winners.

He was knocked down to Liam Howley Racing Pty Ltd.
