It's Our Showtime provides dream result for Cambridge
09 Mar 2022
We have been following the New Zealand yearling sales with great interest this week a number of Willow Park broodmare sale graduates have had progeny grace the Karaka sale ring.
Cambridge Stud provided the star of the show on Tuesday, when their gorgeous colt by Almanzor from It's Our Showtime sold for $675,000.
The Cambridge team, in partnership with David Redvers and Bruce Perry Bloodstock, purchased the colt's dam, It's Our Showtime (Showcasing), from our 2019 Magic Millions Broodmare Sale draft for $150,000, carrying her first foal - a filly by So You Think that subsequently sold as a yearling for $220,000 at Inglis Premier last year.
The family has had it's fair share of updates in just under three years since we sold It's Our Showtime, particularly courtesy of her half sister Inspirational Girl (Reliable Man), who had won her only start a week before the 2019 broodmare sale. Since then, the brilliant mare has won 10 of her 15 starts, including the Group 1 Railway Stakes at Ascot and last Saturday's Group 2 Blamey Stakes at Flemington.
It's Our Showtime has provided a dream start to her stud career, turning a $150,000 investment into $895,000 return in just under three years and we look forward to following her progeny as they hit the racetrack!
