First foal for Sepoy
The first foal by Australian Champion two-year-old and World Champion three-year-old sprinter Sepoy was born at Edinburgh Park Stud on August 4.
A beautifully conformed chestnut filly, she is the first foal out of Listed Morphettville Guineas winner and G1 Queensland Oaks runner-up Becerra. A half-sister to G1 winner Episode, Becerra won two of her 14 career starts and $180,000 in prizemoney.
"She is a big strong leggy foal and she and the mare are both doing well,” Edingburgh Park’s Ian Smith said.
After claiming the G1 Blue Diamond-Golden Slipper double as a two-year-old, Sepoy was undefeated in five starts in the Spring of his three-year-old year. Among those five wins was a scintillating victory over older horses in the G1 Manikato Stakes at Moonee Valley and a triumph in the G1 Coolmore Stakes up the Flemington Straight on Derby day.
Sepoy covered a quality book of 127 mares in his first season at stud last year and will stand at Kelvinside again this coming season at a fee of $66,000 inc. GST.
