  • Tofane Catalogued for MM National Sale

    Wednesday, 31st March 2021

    One of Australia's best sprinters will go under the hammer at the 2021 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale on the Gold Coast in late May. Tofane, a Group 1-winning daughter of Ocean Park, will be offered for sale through what will be a star-studded Newgate Consignment draft. A winner of last year's Gr1 All Aged Stakes at Randwick for trainer Michael Moroney, where she defeated the likes of Bivouac (Exceed and Excel), Santa Ana Lane (Lope de Vega), Fierce Impact (Deep Impact), Dreamforce (Fastnet Rock) and Super Seth (Dundeel), Tofane (Ocean Park-Baggy Green, by Galileo) has spent her short racetrack career racing against horses of the highest calibre. "With Tofane, the most exciting part is what is to come for her on the racetrack and how she might add to her exceptional profile," part owner Rupert Legh said. "I feel her race record only tells half story of how good a race mare she is. She is set to resume in Sydney on April 17 and will target four Group 1 races before and after the Magic Millions sale." A winner of over $1.3 million from just 18 lifetime starts, Tofane is from a three-quarter sister to Gr1 winner Funstar (Adelaide) and half-sister to Youngstar (High Chaparral). The 2021 Magic Millions Gold Coast National Sale will take place from May 20 to June 3.
