“Star Thoroughbred’s policy at public auctions is to offer our stock for unreserved sale. Noire is in the best form of her career. Her third placing in this year’s G1 Coolmore Classic was exceptional. She covered more ground than any other runner and still managed to finish just 1 1/2 lengths from Con Te Partiro, with over 5 lengths back to the fourth horse. In last year’s G1 Tatt’s Tiara Noire was beaten a similar margin, after coming from last of 18 at the 400m mark. The mare has competed in Group races in each of her past 18 starts, 14 of these at Group 1 and Group 2 level signifying the high regard Chris Waller holds her in.” - Denise Martin, Star Thoroughbreds
