NX-owned filly brings $600,000 at Irish sale
A New Zealand-based breeding partnership, Goodwood Breeding, sold a yearling filly for $600,000 at the Goffs Cartier Million Sale in Ireland yesterday. The filly, a threequarter sister to the former champion race mare, Pebbles, is from the winning Relkino
mare, Petradla, which was imported to New Zealand earlier this year. Petradia is due to foal again to Sharpen Up in the next few days. Sharpen Up is the sire of Pebbles and the sale filly. His halfbrother, Savant, is at stud in Canterbury. Petradia is to be bred
with Sir Tristram this season. The Goodwood Partnership, with a capital base of $lO million, the biggest of its kind in New Zealand, is managed by Cambridge Stud and Fay Richwhite. The partnership has two further lots on offer on the last day of
the sale to be held tomorrow including a colt by the boom North American sire, Diesis, also by Sharpen Up. The colt is from a halfsister to Waverley Star and the partnership also offers a Green Dancer colt from a half-sister to the United States “Horse of the Year,” Ferdinand.
