“We’ve inspected all the first crop yearlings by Sword Of State, on the Gold Coast and at Karaka, and he is as much like him as any we’ve seen,” Ellis said.
“He’s a very forward moving and mature young colt, with a lot of presence and quality like his father.
“Sword Of State was one of the most readymade two-year-old colts we’ve ever purchased. His progeny are in his mould and they’ve sold incredibly well.
“By Champion Sire Snitzel, he had an enormous amount of ability right from the outset and a very worthy Champion Two-Year-Old.
“We’ve really couldn’t wait to see his progeny, like others we’re really impressed, and we’re excited to be buying them.”
