The rarest of opportunities will arise at this month’s Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale with one of the world’s best young broodmares joining a star studded catalogue.

Piping Hot, the dam of the superstar filly Coolangatta, will bring all the attributes leading international buyers crave when the star young producer is offered on the Gold Coast.

With a truly international pedigree – being the daughter of champion sire, More Than Ready, out of an Oaks winner by Danehill, Piping Hot is the half sister to a 2yo Gr.1 Blue Diamond Stakes winner. Piping Hot heads to the sale in foal to the outstanding champion sire I Am Invincible on a very early service date.

Possessing remarkable good looks and an unprecedented early produce record, Piping Hot will provide the world’s leading international breeders with an exciting future as her daughter Coolangatta heads to one of the world’s leading race meetings, Royal Ascot as the current favourite for the Gr.1 King’s Stand Stakes.

Piping Hot will be presented at the Gold Coast by the Milburn Creek team, acting as agent for John Warren’s Highclere Stud Australia.

“She’s a rare commodity and we know it’s very hard to find mares like this,” Warren noted.

“She’s only a nine year old and already an exceptional broodmare – not many mares produce animals of this calibre, Coolangatta is only her second foal.”

Warren found Piping Hot as a yearling and quickly decided he had to secure her.

“Jake (Warren) and I came over to Australia for the sales and we really fell for this filly as she was a magnificent physical. We love coming to Australia, so we thought it would be fun to have a few mares and decided to buy her as she had the type of pedigree that we could take back to Europe if we decided to do so.”

“We sent her to Gai (Waterhouse) who told us that she was a stakes filly from very early on.  After only her fourth start and having won her last two races she was heading into a group race when she sadly got injured and had to retire.”

“It was obvious that we had to step up and mate her to the likes of Snitzel and Written Tycoon.” Warren added. “Her weanling full sister to Coolangatta is regarded by everyone that has seen her as a truly exceptional type – so there is a lot to look forward to.”

Her first foal Snitzonfire is a multiple Sydney winner, while superstar filly Coolangatta was just her second foal. Her two-year-old by Dundeel is showing great promise in Victoria.

A winner of the $2 million Magic Millions 2YO Classic as well as two other Group races as a juvenile, Coolangatta has returned at three to upstage many of the world’s best sprinters in two Group One sprints where she defeated the likes of I Wish I Win and Nature Strip. Next up is a tilt at Royal Ascot.

“(Trainers) Ciaron Maher and David Eustace have been talking about it for some time,” Warren noted. “Bookmakers don’t often get it wrong and looking at the ante-post market for the race it shows the esteem she is held. It’s very exciting!” 

Magic Millions Managing Director Barry Bowditch said Piping Hot would be well sought by leading buyers from around the world. 

“It’s an absolute honour to be entrusted with the sale of Piping Hot on behalf of Highclere Stud Australia.”

“Piping Hot, in my opinion, would be by far the highest credentialed broodmare to be offered at auction in Australia in a very long time.”

“She has it all – a daughter of More Than Ready, the dam of superstar filly Coolangatta, in foal to our leading sire and sales ring record breaker I Am Invincible, and physically all you would look for in a broodmare – what a package.”

“She would be the jewel in the crown for any breeder – whether they breed to race, or breed to sell at the top end of the yearling market,  Piping Hot is as a rare international commodity – she has all of her best years ahead of her and has already achieved so much,” Bowditch added. 

Piping Hot will be offered as Lot 676 on Day One of the National Broodmare Sale through the Milburn Creek draft, who are acting as agent for Highclere Stud Australia. She will go under the hammer prior to the supplementary race fillies and the Edinburgh Park Unreserved Dispersal of race fillies and broodmares.

The 2023 Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale commences on May 23.
