Last-start Group 1 winner added to National Broodmare Sale.
The Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale has had another Group 1 winner added to the catalogue with Sunshine In Paris on Wednesday announced as a late entry to the offering later this month.
The daughter of Invader has been to the races just five times, for three wins, the latest coming at her most recent appearance – the Group 1 Surround Stakes at Randwick on February 25.
The form from that race was further franked last Saturday when narrow runner-up Ruthless Dame won the Group 1 Sangster Stakes in Adelaide.
Surround Stakes third placegetter In Secret won the Group 1 Newmarket Handicap at her next start.
"Sunshine in Paris is a remarkable supplementary for the sale, she's a filly that has burst onto the scene in such a short time and looks to have such a bright future," Magic Millions managing director Barry Bowditch said.
"The Surround is a race that only the best fillies win and what fun the successful purchaser is going to have programming her with the huge prizemoney on offer here in Australia during the spring.
"The form around her is faultless and she will present a unique opportunity for buyers in a couple of weeks' time."
Sunshine In Paris joins Forbidden Love (All Too Hard), Snapdancer (Choisir) and Coventina Bay (Shamexpress) as Group 1 winners to be offered at the National Sale.
Sunshine In Paris will be offered through the Newgate consignment on the race fillies and mares section that kicks off the three-day offering on May 23.
Annabel Neasham has put the polish on Sunshine In Paris to this point in her career and has already put up her hand to regain her from the new owner.
"It would break my heart if she ended up in another stable after the sale," Neasham said.
"I will be doing everything I can to get her back in my yard and set her for the Golden Eagle. She's a beautiful filly and has such a bright future."
Sunshine in Paris is not the only member of the family that will be sold on the Gold Coast with her Group-winning half-sister Macroura (Snitzel) being offered in-foal to Deep Field by Vinery Stud, while their dam Zenaida (Zabeel), who is in-foal to Maurice, is being sold by Three Bridges Thoroughbreds.
