Outstanding sprinter Brazen Beau was declared Champion Three-Year-Old Colt or Gelding at the Australian Racehorse of the Year Awards overnight, putting the icing on the cake of a stellar career for his racing connections including his large syndicate of owners, 36 of whom were in attendance at the event, trainer Chris Waller, and Ontrack Thoroughbreds’ Grant Morgan.
On the eve of the 2015 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale Summer Book star colt Brazen Beau, a second generation Classic Sale graduate, and his trainer Chris Waller have been honoured for their Group 1 triumph this season.
Quality colt Brazen Beau very nearly gave Yarraman Park’s young sire sensation I Am Invincible his first Group I winner back in the winter when he was beaten a long head in the Group I BRC JJ Atkins Stakes and he made amends at Flemington on Saturday when beating a crackerjack field to win the Group I VRC Coolmore Stud Stakes.
Synonymous as a sale with value for trainers and syndicators alike, the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale added its latest Group 1 winner to the mantelpiece, when three-year-old colt Brazen Beau claimed the Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes over 1200m in emphatic fashion.
