Mount Nelson on parade at Tattersalls on 2nd February
Mount Nelson will be on parade at the TBA Stallion Parade at Tattersalls on Thursday 2nd February, as will Newsells Park Stud’s other resident sire, dual Gr.1 King’s Stand winner Equiano.
Mount Nelson’s first yearlings sold well, with more than sixty offered they averaged four times his 2009 stud fee and recorded a median of £30,000, three times his fee. They are now with all the right trainers who are more than happy with their progress, and the Stud is hopeful of some exciting first runners in 2012 by this dual Gr.1 winner whose sire, Rock Of Gibraltar, had such a great season last year.
Just see what 'Probably the happiest trainers in the World' are saying about his yearlings so far:
“She is a nice, easy moving filly. It’s early days, but I do like her a lot.” Sir Henry Cecil, re half-sister to Equiano
“He is a really smart, attractive colt that goes very nicely.” Richard Hannon, re colt ex Fidelio’s Miracle
“I have two cracking Mount Nelson colts. Both look sharp two-year-old types, are great to work around and have fantastic temperaments.” Mick Channon, re colts ex Really Ransom and Dream Day
“She is a lovely, straightforward filly cantering away and doing everything very easily. She won’t take long to get to the races.” Richard Fahey, re half-sister to Miss Work of Art
“I love our Mount Nelson yearling. He shows a great attitude and moves exceptionally well. Sure to make a two-year-old.” Ed Vaughan, re colt ex Phoebe Woodstock
“She is a very well made athletic filly, sharp, racy and uses herself extremely well.” Brendan Holland, Grove Stud, re filly ex Tia Mia
