1406 Lot15 - Pretzel Son
June 2014 auction
Liver chestnut colt 23/11/2013 mature 16.2hh
On account of Winning Colours Farm
This fully imported lineage Australian Stud Book thoroughbred is an exciting entry to Auction of the Stars. You’ll be super-impressed by his substantial bone and ‘elastic’ legs that go on forever. These attributes, coupled with his active stride and vast ‘in the sky’ front end, emulate the world class and proven performance lines he comes from. His remarkable dam was imported from the USA and is by GP’s Kruggerand - a performance champion himself in the USA in both hunter and dressage arenas, and a sire of champions. Kruggerand is out of a four-time race-winning mare and his sire is none other than the most accomplished dilute thoroughbred on the Planet, Glitter Please. Glitter Please is a 17hh FEI Grand Prix dressage stallion. Sire, Profile In Style (USA), has already produced racewinning and supreme champion get. He is a world class type from a world class pedigree being a member of the dominant Halo sire line, which has already produced racing superstars Phelan Ready ($3.2m in stakes) and Sebring ($2.5m in stakes). His dam is a granddaughter of the legendary Secretariat. These racing statistics are a valuable yardstick for the athleticism and trainability of this entry’s sireline. But the most exciting quality not mentioned thus far has to be this colt’s mind. Taking to his training like a duck to water is an understatement. We are thrilled to present this colt to the astute buyer who wants to excel at (but not be limited to) the Olympic disciplines while enjoying every step of the way. This horse has the enjoyment factor built in and has what it takes from every angle you look at him.
