Recently purchased at the Karaka Ready To Run sale is this stunning looking colt by Admire Mars for NZ$260,000.
Three-time Group 1 winner Admire Mars, whose first southern hemisphere yearlings sold consistently well in 2024, has much to add to the growing story of Japanese stallion success in this part of the world.
A son of Group 1 winner & leading sire Daiwa Major (by Sunday Silence) & the French Group winner Via Medici, Admire Mars was Japan’s unbeaten Champion 2YO Colt of 2018 after winning all four of his juvenile starts.
Admire Mars’ oldest progeny are now 2YO’s in Australia and are starting to hit the track to begin their careers.
As Mick mentions in our video the colt is the exact image of his dad Admire Mars. Click on the video below to see his parade and breeze up.
Out of the two time winner mare Lucky Helmet, she comes from the same family that produced Flying Mascot, Xtravagant and He’s Remarkable.
This colt will now spell in New Zealand for around 8 weeks, pre train in NZ and then fly over to Australia and come to our Cranbourne stables.
Purchase includes bloodstock, pre sale vetting, 12 months insurance, Bio Data, airfreight, Studbook fees, NZ road transport, agistment until the end of December and GST.
