The impeccably-bred entire was prepared by Michael, Wayne and John Hawkes to win five of his 16 starts, placing in another three and earning A$796,900.
He is out of the Rip Van Winkle mare Euro Angel, who was bred by Windsor Park Stud and won three races headed by Caulfield’s Gr.3 Ladies Day Vase (1600m).
Euro Angel’s dam is the Listed winner and Group One-placed Polish Princess, who also produced Australian Group Two winners Leebaz and Polish Knight, along with Zebrowski, who like Polish Knight finished runner-up in the Gr.1 Australian Derby (2400m). Zebrowski won twice at Group Three level in Hong Kong.
Brent Gillovic, Highview Stud
“He has the Snitzel strength and is a good size and on his dam side he has a pedigree that should see him throw middle distance and classic horses too. He is over 16hh and is a deep chestnut colour, very flashy. He is a good-looking horse with a lot of bone, powerfully built and very correct.”
James Chapman, co-breeder/owner
“He was a tough front running horse and just a very good horse. I will be putting some good resources behind him. I hope to send 20 mares and will be buying mares specifically to suit Mr Mozart. I’d like to find speed-type mares, that’s my plan.”
