Last Saturday at Randwick, young AJC member Danielle Denham was the lucky person whose name came out of the barrel to win a one-sixth share in the colt by Nadeem to be trained by Hall of Fame trainer Bart Cummings.

The competition was organised by the stakeholders in the Sydney Autumn Carnival, AJC, STC, Inglis, Tabcorp, Racing NSW and Events NSW and attracted a big number of entries.  Therefore, if you did enter, but missed out, and fancy owning a piece of the colt, Inglis still have a couple of shares remaining in him.  So give either Peter Heagney, Mark Webster, Jonathan D’arcy or Simon Vivian at Inglis a call as Inglis will be responsible for management of him.

Cummings selected the colt out of the recent Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sales in Sydney and the brown colt by Darley’s Blue Diamond winner is out of Fly by Night (by Prince of Birds) and was the second highest priced yearling sold at the sale by the young Redoute’s Choice stallion.  The top priced seller by Nadeem was a colt out of Kapchat and sold to Shadwell Australasia for $240,000.

Cummings said of the colt, “He is a big colt with a very good rein, a lovely shoulder, and he moves athletically who steps over a lot of ground when walking,”
“And he looks the part,” the master trainer added.

With two years of training fees and insurance Ms. Denham has a wonderful opportunity to ‘get her heart racing’.
