This youngster is our first 2007 season baby and is by the Brilliant Invader son Aurum Brilliant Cut out of Expenses.
Expenses has a very interesting pedigree indeed! She is by Sanction who is the sire of Heath Ryan's top 4* eventer Flame. It's no accident that Sanction produced a top jumping horse in Flame given that he has that giant of thoroughbred jumping horse sires Precipitation in his pedigree, not to mention Star Kingdom/Hyperion/Gainsborough as well as Nasrullah and Fair Trial/Phalaris. If that isn't enough, on her dam side she has a double cross of Precipitation as well as a double Cross of Son In Law and once again Gainsborough, Nasrullah and Fair Trial/Phalaris. What a sensational jumping pedigree! And we thought she might just go well with a Brilliant Invader! Guess what? She did go well with a Brilliant Invader, producing a very gorgeous dark brown colt with a beautiful star, bold personality and very striking movement. He has the most amazing hock and knee action as well as an incredible stretch in the canter. He charges around jumping large tussocks like he was bred for jumping! Wait, he was bred for jumping! Mega is a very special foal who has a super future in eventing with the right rider. We are sure that he has everything you'd need to go to the highest levels! Mega was snapped up very quickly by talented up and coming young rider Dale Flynn from South Australia. A number of other callers were understandably disappointed to miss out on him, but the good news is that Expenses is back in foal to Aurum Brilliant Cut and there will be another opportunity to secure these bloodlines next season. Mega will shortly be leaving for his new home but we had a recent opportunity to take a couple of photos and some video of him to show everyone. Although pretty woolly (and a little fat!) his striking markings and near black colour really stand out. He has real charisma! What also stands out are his friendly and unflappable personality as well as his outstanding movement. |
