Kitchwin Hills have established themselves as one of the key nurseries for raising top class racehorses over the past 20 years. Their results on the track not just in recent times but over a prolonged period have positioned them strongly for future sales and the continuation of producing this fast tough product.
The 2019/20 season has seen Kitchwin Hills paddock graduates claim a host of big races including the richest race on turf the $14million TAB Everest with Yes Yes Yes (Rubick), Australia’s most famous time honoured staying race the Melbourne Cup with Vow And Declare (Declaration Of War {USA}), as well as a G1 All Aged S. with Pierata (Pierro) now a winner of $5.6million!
Most recently Dreamforce (Fastnet Rock) has added to the list of Group 1 winners off the farm taking out the George Ryder S. His record of 32 starts for 12wins and 11 minor placings and over $2.1million in prizemoney is exactly the type of tough, fast racehorse Kitchwin Hills are trying to produce for many seasons to come and seemingly make up this year's Inglis Easter Draft.
Out of a half-sister to the multiple Group 2 winner of nearly $1million Hooked (Casino Prince).
With an I Am Invincible filly at home and in foal to Trapeze Artist, this filly represents tremendous residual value going forward.
This filly has thrived throughout the preparation as you can see from her glow and skin, she’s developed physically into an athletic and fluent mover.
No Looking Back (Redoute's Choice) was first across the line in a Magic Millions 2YO Classic, only to lose it in the stewards room on protest to Driefontein (Fastnet Rock).
This filly is from a proper 2-year-old family, with sire Capitalist a Magic Millions and Golden Slipper winner, while her dam was also runner up in a Blue Diamond behind Samaready (More Than Ready {USA}).
No Looking Back has a 2-year-old filly by Written Tycoon called Fortune Seeker who sold for $250,000 at Magic Millions in 2019, and is with Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott showing good ability. Sold by Newgate, so much was the opinion of the filly as a yearling Bruce Slade the General Manager at that point took a share himself.
Written Tycoon (Sire of Capitalist) over mares carrying Redoute’s Choice equals 9 per cent stakes winners to runners including Group 1 winner Luna Rossa and the Group 3 winner Teleplay.
This filly has always shown great scope, her development throughout has been exceptional. Unfortunately she was scratched from the Magic Millions earlier in the year as she trod on a toe clip in the stable and couldn't be shown. A blessing in disguise considering how she has physically developed and has become a different horse physically from January.
She has a relaxed attitude and has handled the parades well, a professional filly with a big loose action with Henry Field commenting how much she looks like her Mum now.
The first foal of the G3 Thoroughbred Club S. and Scone Guineas winner Serene Majesty (Fastnet Rock).
The G2 Reisling placegetter Vincere Volare is bred on this same I Am Invincible/Fastnet Rock cross, as is Avenue of Pleasure (Just 11 runners bred on this cross).
This filly holds serious residual value from a family full of black-type, while physically she is a replica of mum with the same shape and head!
A forward and well-developed August foal, she will certainly be a force in 12 months time contesting the major 2-year-old races.
Many of the those that have seen her during their on-farm parades have commented on her class, with Harry Mitchell from Yarraman Park commenting “She is exactly what a good Vinnie filly should look like."
The second foal of the dual Group 1-winning Dubawi (Ire) mare Srikandi, and by the champion sire I Am Invincible. Does it get much better?
Her first foal Heroess (Snitzel) a $400,000 Andy Williams purchase is with the Snowden stable and was impressive in her first start running fourth at Warwick Farm in a strong field. Such was the quality of the field the stable have now said they will try to find a stakes race next possibly the Kindergarten S. in the coming weeks.
A winner of the time honoured Stradbroke and Tatts Tiara at Group 1 level, Srikandi was a serious race mare winning in excess of $2.3 million.
With a first foal that has shown good toe in her early work, this I Am Invincible holds tremendous residual value going forward.
A robust filly from a super family with her 2-year-old half-brother Rathlin (Fastnet Rock) an impressive Listed winner and big race performer in the Magic Millions, Blue Diamond and Golden Slipper.
She looks a speedy race filly with great strength, and has developed throughout the preparation.
Like all good fillies there’s plenty of attitude there, as seen when she gets her head down and struts along taking control.
Again a filly with such strong residual value with Wiener a stakes-placed 2-year-old half-sister to Snitzel and Hinchinbrook. With a recent 2-year-old stakeswinner in the family.
The first foal of a winning Lonhro mare, bred on the same cross as the classy sprinter Wayupinthesky (Snitzel) with a 63 per cent return on winners to runners. This filly not dissimilar on type to Wayupinthesky, a filly purchased by KWH who is now a stakeswinner for the Snowden stable.
With Redoute’s Choice bred in these exact positions on the pedigree, it has produced three winners including the stakes horse Bottega (Snitzel).
A typically sharp 2-year-old Snitzel type, this filly has been on a gradual plane of improvement right throughout the sale preparation.
The first foal of the imported Galileo (Ire) mare I’ll Fly Away (Ire), who was imported as a race filly, becoming a city winner, and was a lip off being stakes-placed during the Brisbane Winter Carnival.
Interestingly Danehill (USA) in these exact positions on the pedigree have been extensively successful producing a Group 1 winner and 24 stakes horses in total.
Most notable of those include Red Excitement (Excites) and Single Bullet (Not A Single Doubt) as well as the recent winner Spend (Snitzel).
This colt is a short-coupled power pack, with the best nature he has hardly turned a hair during the preparation and gets along with his work.
