Buyers will have the opportunity to get their hands on a dual Group 2-winning four-year-old later this month with Inglis on Thursday announcing that Jamaea would be a part of its July (Late) online auction.

The Robert and Luke Price-trained daughter of Headwater raced at Stakes level in 19 of her 20 starts, which included Group 2 wins in the Percy Sykes Stakes (1200m) and Furious Stakes (1200m) as a three-year-old.

Jamaea was retired after her fifth placing in the Group 3 Triscay Stakes in February and managing owner Bruce Noble said she was better placed with someone who specialised in breeding.

"She was such a gutsy race filly and if she produces foals half as talented as her, she really could develop into a special broodmare,'' Noble said.

"I would love to breed from her myself, but it's just not what my brother and I are in the game to do – we are racers.

"I've chatted to plenty of prominent industry people about her and I'm assured that she is compatible with most of the best stallions in Australia from a pedigree and physical standpoint, so I'm really excited to see what she can go on to achieve as a broodmare.

"She's up in the Hunter Valley now and I would expect that most stud masters will fall in love with her when they see her in the same way that we did."

Jamaea is available for inspection at Cannon Hayes Stud in the Hunter Valley from next Tuesday, the day before entries for the Inglis Digital July (Late) Sale close.
