One of Tasmania’s leading studs Grenville Stud is set to head to the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale with a draft of four outstanding colts by some of Australia’s most sought‑after sires.

We asked Bart McCulloch from Grenville Stud to comment on each lot.

The draft opens with Lot 34, a colt by Wooden Bassett out of the six‑time winner Queen La Diva (Snippetson). She is a full sister to Listed winner Kenjorwood, and this colt is her first foal — a strong, athletic type with a proven family behind him.

Vendors Comment; “A absolute standout colt from the day he was born. Strong, athletic and the best mover you will see – he literally turns heads and is an outstanding colt.”

Lot 239 is by Golden Slipper winner Stay Inside, whose oldest progeny are only two but already include Group 3 winner Incognito, Listed winner Lassified, and the Group‑placed Eviction Notice. This colt is out of Bring Me Showers, a Sebring mare who is a half‑sister to a former Australian Champion 3YO Filly. His pedigree is stacked with black‑type performers, including Broadsiding, Australia’s dual Champion at both two and three years of age.

Vendors Comment: “A sharp, early type – he is a spitting image of his grandsire Extreme Choice which will ensure he proves very popular with buyers.”

Lot 374 is a bay colt by the red‑hot sire Too Darn Hot, out of the Magic Albert mare La Magique, herself a winner and already the dam of Mysterious Master, twice placed from five starts for Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott. This is a deep international family featuring New Zealand Group 3 winner Kelly Coe, Irish Champion 3YO Sprinter Dancing Rain, Europe’s Champion 2YO Filly Maybe, and Continuous, the Champion 3YO Stayer of Europe in 2023.

Vendors Comment: “A strong forward colt by one of the hottest sires in Australia. He has good size and substance is extremely athletic with a powerful hind quarter.”

Rounding out the consignment is Lot 394, is by leading sire Zoustar  and is the first foal of the $900,000 yearling Lomandra (Not A Single Doubt) His second dam, Vasilissa, a winner in Japan, produced Tagaloa, the Blue Diamond Stakes winner and now a successful young sire. The third dam, Penkenna Princess, was a Group 3 winner in Britain and is the dam of Tricolore Blue, a six‑time winner in Japan who earned over $2 million in prizemoney.

Vendors Comment: “A strong, short coupled colt who looks like an early running type. A wonderful moving colt with an effortless action that has plenty of quality.”

This is a powerful, well‑balanced draft with pedigree depth, commercial appeal, and the type of colts that consistently stand out at Easter.
