Selling Information
  • Located at Newgate Farm, NSW
  • A 2YO winner over 1100m on debut, she was Stakes-placed on her 2nd start at 2.
  • Stakes-performed on both dirt and turf as a 3YO at 1000m/1100m, her career best came when 2nd to high-class G1 performed filly Acapulco over 1000m at Churchill Downs.
  • Speightstown is a leading US sire of 111 Stakes winners, while his daughters have to date produced 24 individual Stakes winners.
  • Imported US-bred mares have produced the likes of recent high-class Australian-bred horses Russian Revolution, Foxplay, I Am A Star, Delectation, Qafila, Reelem In Ruby, Colada etc.
  • “If you are looking for 2YO speed, Late Spring has it in abundance. Luskin Park has obviously had great affinity with mares imported from the US, with Foxwedge having been bred from a mare with a similar profile. Late Spring was a winning and Stakes-placed 2YO who also Stakes-placed on multiple occasions as a 4YO, Late Spring is out of a 2YO-winning black-type mare April Frost. Her 2nd dam is Stakes-winning April Starlight who won two races as a 2YO. She is IF to 5-time G1 winner The Autumn Sun, who was also managed to win in G1 company as a 2YO.” - John Whelan, Luskin Park Stud
