Make that 14 2yo winners for Redoute’s Choice

Redoute’s Choice has taken a clear lead on the Australian Two-Year-Old Sires’ List (by winners) after adding two more debut winners to his season tally today. He now has 14 two-year-old winners (12 on debut) for the season, two more than his son Stratum, and Encosta de Lago.

Altius (ex Circles of Gold by Marscay) won the Swan Hill race named for his champion three-quarter brother Elvstroem, and Savannah’s Choice (ex Kirov Premiere by Sadler’s Wells) charged home to score at Wyong, with Miss Parma (by Snitzel ) in second place.

Savannah’s Choice, from the family of European Group One winners Chief Singer and Anna Pavlova, is a $325,000 Bellerive graduate of the 2009 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale, purchased by Mr & Mrs David Fuller, and trained for them by Chris Waller. The Fullers also race three-time Group One winner Metal Bender from the Waller stable.

Tony Vasil prepares Altius for his breeders, Frank & Sally Tagg, Frank & Marie Meduri and Garry & Leone Moffitt who also raced Elvstroem and champion miler Haradasun – all from the remarkable broodmare and high-class racemare Circles of Gold.
