Stakes Success for Captain Coltish
Saturday, 6th March 2010

Kentucky Derby winner Fusaichi Pegasus (USA) added another new stakes-winner to his tally when progressive sprinter Captain Coltish took out the Listed MRC Schweppes Trophy at Flemington on Saturday.

Racing in top form since resuming from a spell, the Peter Moody trained entire was rewarded for his consistency when kicking on strongly to win the 1400 metre sprint by the best part of a length.

An $800,000 purchase for John Foote Bloodstock from the Coolmore draft at the 2007 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, Captain Coltish (pictured) runs for the Makybe Racing and Breeding Syndicate and partners and has won five races and placed four times from 10 starts earning $172,876 in prizemoney.

Captain Coltish is a half-brother to ill-fated Group One winner Juste Momente and is the second stakes-winner for his stakes-placed dam Skates, a daughter of former star mare and now star producer Skating.

Coolmore Stud will offer a full brother to Captain Coltish at the 2010 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale as Lot 167.

Skates has a colt foal by Encosta de Lago in the pipeline and was covered by the champion sire again last spring.

Captain Coltish is the third Australian stakes-winner this season for Fusaichi Pegasus (USA) (pictured), whose last Australian bred yearlings are selling at sales this year.
