Anna Pavlova victory a boost for champion breeder Mick Goss ahead of annual sale
Roy Magner’s filly is a graduate of the Emperors Palace Summer Ready-To-Run sale and is looking a real bargain buy at R40,000
Anna Pavlova’s win in last Saturday’s grade3 Three Troikas Stakes at Turffontein was just what the doctor ordered for champion breeder Mick Goss ahead of his Emperors Palace Summer Ready-To-Run sale next week. More than 100 lots will come under the hammer on Tuesday at Goss’s Summerhill Stud in Mooi River. The reason Anna Pavlova’s victory — the fourth of her career and first stakes success — was so timely is that Roy Magner’s filly is a graduate of this sale and is looking a real bargain buy at R40,000. Goss can point to other shrewd purchases at this annual sale with other notable graduates being No Worries, Top Shot, Flyfirstclass, Vulcan, Greasepaint and Isingamoya. Top Shot has proved a moneyspinner for trainer Gary Alexander while Greasepaint, also trained by Magner, has enjoyed an outstanding career on the Highveld.
