SA-Bred Mare’s Tatts Strike

Barnane Stud mare was top-class

The Western Winter mare Cold As Ice, who won six races in South Africa for Joey Ramsden including two Gr 2’s, had a colt sell on the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale Book 2 yesterday.

The colt by Epsom Derby winner Australia was knocked down for 50,000 Guineas to Peter and Ross Doyle Bloodstock.

He was consigned by Baroda Stud, although the mare is owned by the Kieswetter family’s Barnane Stud.

Cold As Ice had previously produced two fillies by Frankel.

The first of them is called Icykel and this now four-year-old filly is trained by Johnny Murtagh.

She won second time out over one mile and four furlongs and she has subsequently finished fourth in a Listed event over a mile and six furlongs.

Her second Frankel filly is unraced at time of writing.

Cold As Ice is by Western Winter out of the seven-time winning Viva (National Assembly x Hot Grass).

Cold As Ice was bred by Avontuur Stud and was an R875 000 purchase on the 2013 Cape Premier Yearling Sale Book 1.
