<\/p>\n

Eliza Park\u2019s exciting young sire, Wanted, has topped day one of the 2012 Inglis Great Southern Weanling Sale with his flashy bay colt from, Vestment, being knocked down for $117,500 \u2013 almost twice that of the second highest price of the opening session.<\/span><\/div>\n
The Wanted colt\u2019s entry to the sales ring sparked a bidding duel among the major players with Ascot Heath Pty Ltd, the session\u2019s leading buyer overall, eventually winning out.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

Bred at Eliza Park, the youngster is out of the Danasinga mare, Vestment, a half sister to the dam of Flemington stakes winner Satin Robes and a daughter of Group One winner Lady Madonna. The weanling is also closely related to another Eliza Park home-bred in Group One winner Recurring.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cThe colt was popular from the moment he arrived at the complex last Thursday,\u201d Eliza Park\u2019s Mark Lindsay pointed out. \u201cIt would be fair to say that all of the serious buyers had a good look at him and he certainly had a large number of x-ray hits.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cWhile we thought it was an excellent price for the colt, it doesn\u2019t really come as a surprise.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cFor starters, Wanted is a cracking type himself \u2013 one of the best looking horses of his year (selling as a yearling for $800,000). What\u2019s more, he\u2019s by boom sire Fastnet Rock and after winning a Group race at two, he went on to win the Group One Newmarket at three.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cMares in foal to Wanted have sold up to $205,000 and I\u2019d be telling fibs if I said that we didn\u2019t have our fingers crossed that his foals turned out OK.\n<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cToday\u2019s result is the proof in the pudding and we\u2019re obviously looking forward to next year\u2019s yearling sales.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
