Group 1 winner Go Indy Go (Bernardini) will be offered as part of the Kitchwin Hills draft at the Inglis Chairman's Sale on Friday.
The daughter of Bernardini (A.P. Indy) was one of the standout two-year-old's of her generations, winning the SAJC Sires' Produce Stakes (Gr 3, 1400m) and Champagne Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) as a juvenile during a career that spanned 11 starts - all at stakes level – and resulted in two wins and four minor placings.
Her two foals to be offered at public auction to date have sold for $1,500,000 and $700,000.
She is out of three-time winning Zabeel (Sir Tristram) mare Elegant Eagle and is therefore a sister to Group 3 winner Essay Raider.
Elegant Eagle herself is a sister to Golden Eagle, who in turn produced 2011 Caulfield Cup (Gr 1, 2400m) winner Southern Speed (Southern Image).
Further back her third dam Very Droll (Crown Jester) is a three-quarter sister to successful sire Rory's Jester, while she also produced 2001 Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) winner Ha Ha (Danehill) and Listed scorer Dry Humour (Danehill).
