2020 Colt by Pether's Moon (Ire) ex Ela d'Argent (Ire)

A good-looking yearling colt by Pether's Moon is offered for sale.  

He is out of the Ela-Mana-Mou mare Ela d'Argent, who won as a two and three-year-old on the flat and later added a trio of successes over hurdles to her CV. She has subsequently produced the hurdles winner Snazz Man.

Ela d'Argent is the product of a good family that continued to punch above its weight and prove its relevance in 2020.

She is a half-sister to the Listed-winning and Grp-2 placed stayer Winged d'Argent and a full-sister to the classy Mana D'Argent, who won six times at Ascot and was rated 98 at his peak.  

Another of her siblings, the four-time winning and 96-rated mare Greta d'Argent, has gone on to notable success as a broodmare, producing the Listed-placed two-year-old Coolminx and the high-class mare Beau Recall.  

A winner in Ireland as a two-year-old, Beau Recall has gone on to win four times in Grade-2 company in the US, as well as placing on numerous occasions in Grade-1 company. She confirmed that she remains at the top of her game when beating the top-class Newspaperofrecord in a Grade-2 at Churchill Downs in September. 

This classy and versatile family is sure to benefit from the influence of the covering sire Pether's Moon. Winner of the Grp-1 Coronation Cup on the final appearance of a long and successful career on the track, he subsequently retired to Yorton Farm Stud and has made the brightest of starts to his stallion career.  

Although yet to be represented by a runner in Britain or Ireland, his two representatives at the time of writing in France include Anneloralas, a winner at Auteuil in October and third in a Listed hurdle at the same venue.

In addition, the sire's progeny have sold for figures including £30,000, £25,000, £24,000 and £20,000 twice this summer/autumn, providing an enormous return on his covering fee.

This cracking colt is by a sire of significant potential and out of a proven winner-producing mare from a good staying family. Please get in touch for more information.
