$600,000 Shinzo Filly Lights Up Sale Ring

Tara Madgwick - Tuesday May 5

Foaled and raised at Coolmore, Shinzo has always been an important colt for the farm and after winning the $5million Group I ATC Golden Slipper at two, the son of Snitzel earned his place on the stallion roster with his first progeny selling at the Inglis Australian Weanling Sale this week.

Making a huge splash on Tuesday morning was the Noorilim Park consigned Shinzo filly from Special Lover that sold for $600,000 to Stefan Pardi’s SP Thoroughbreds.

A half-sister to Group III MRC Blue Diamond Preview winner Miss Roseiano, the lovely filly is the fifth foal of stakes-placed Special Lover, who has had three foals to race and all are winners.

$600,000 Sninzo filly from Special Lover.

By champion sire Pins, Special Lover has an impressive lineage being a grand-daughter of Group I winner Diamond Lover, with this branch of the iconic Eight Carat (GB) family producing G1 winners Don Eduardo, Tristalove, Viscount and more recently Feroce, winner of last year;s Group I VRC Australian Guineas.

Special Lover has been a very profitable mare for Noorilim Park as they have sold I Am Invincible yearling fillies from her for $1.1million and $500,000, so she obviously produces a great type and her Group winning daughter Miss Roseiano was bought by Tom Magnier on Inglis Digital in 2023 for $1.275million.

Special Lover was covered by another Golden Slipper winner last spring and is now in foal to Stay Inside.
