2019 Colt by Hot Streak (Ire) ex Deceived (GB)

An attractive two-year-old colt by Hot Streak is offered for sale. All reasonable offers considered.

The dam Deceived was unraced but hails from an outstanding family. A Juddmonte-bred daughter of Selkirk, she is a half-sister to the top-class Twice Over, winner of the Grp-1 Juddmonte International, Grp-1 Eclipse Stakes and Grp-1 Champion Stakes (twice). He is now a successful sire in South Africa.

Deceived and Twice Over are both products of the Listed winner Double Crossed, whilst further near relations include the Grp-1 winners Passage of Time and Timepiece, and the Grp-2 winners Time Test and Father Time.

Deceived has previously produced a filly by Observatory and a two-year-old colt by Helmet; she still awaits her first runner. Meanwhile, her sire Selkirk is the noted broodmare sire of Grp-1 winners such as Benbatl, Mount Nelson, Redkirk Warrior and Quiff.

The covering sire Hot Streak was a high-class sprinter who won the Grp-3 Cornwallis Stakes by five-lengths at two and the Grp-2 Temple Stakes as a three-year-old. He was also runner-up in the Grp-1 Middle Park Stakes and third in the Grp-1 King's Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot.

His first runners emerged onto racecourses in 2019 and he was represented by dozens of useful individual winners. Included amongst their number were the Listed-winning and Grp-3 placed Flaming Princess, the Grp-3 Anglesey Stakes fourth Between Hills and the Windsor Castle Stakes fifth Illusionist.

It is also worth noting that one of Hot Streak's better first crop runners, the 87-rated Hugo Palmer-trained Hot Touch, is out of a mare who hails from the Selkirk sire line.

This super individual boasts excellent credentials on paper and has the looks to match; please get in touch for further information.
