SANTOS (AUS) (Bay 2015-Stud 2019). 2 wins at 2 to 1200m, A$255,100, ATC Skyline S., Gr.2, Pierro 2YO P., 3d ATC Breeders’ P., L. Half-brother to SW Melagrana. Sire of SW Ulanova (Auckland TR Sistema S., Gr.1) and of Grand Sage, Sandual, Victory Win, Chop the Ice, West of Dalby and of the placegetters Exclusive Drop, I Eff Oh, Karakaroo, Khutos, Santastico, Santino, etc. His oldest progeny are 3YOs.<\/p>\n

Commencing his autumn campaign with an easy victory in the $150,000 ATC Pierro Plate (1100m) at Randwick, he then booked his place in the G1 ATC Golden Slipper (1200m) with a tenacious win in the G2 ATC Skyline Stakes (1200m), a race which historically attracts a high-class field of colts and has been a great stallion-making race, won in the past by Snitzel, Choisir, Hinchinbrook and Manhattan Rain.<\/p>\n

Bred by Emirates Park, Santos comes from one of their most successful families being a half-brother to Japanese G3 winner Melagrana from a half-sister to Group winners Mutawaajid, Adeewin and Fatoon, the dam of G1 ATC Epsom Handicap (1600m) winner Fat Al.<\/p>\n

Completely free of Danehill blood, Santos has the good looks, natural speed and quality that are the hallmarks of his famous sire I Am Invincible.<\/p>\n

His first crop of yearlings sold up to $150,000 and Ulanova was sold privately for\u00a0$1.2 million!<\/p>\n

Aquis Stallions Director of Sales, Jonathan Davies<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSantos has kicked off his career in fantastic fashion and has a Group One winner in Ulanova from his first crop. There is immeasurable upside with a stallion of his looks and credentials.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Brent Gillovic, Highview Stud<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen my son Kurtis and I inspected Santos, we were really taken by him as an individual. He has a huge masculine presence, terrific conformation and as impressive a type as you could hope to see.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
