Sire: STAR TURN

STAR TURN by STAR WITNESS  3 wins 1 at 2. Star Turn was a Powerhouse Sprinter and the ONLY 3yo colt of his generation who measured up to weight-for-age (WFA) Gr.1 racing in the Autumn.

But he wasn’t just a phenomenal 3yo! In a stellar crop of colts, Star Turn drew first blood as a Spring 2yo in the Pierro Plate at Randwick before a 2nd to Flying Artie in the Blue Diamond Prelude in the Autumn. His only unplaced runs in a 12 start career were 5th and 6th in Blue Diamond and Golden Slipper respectively.

It’s not surprising that he was a pre-Christmas juvenile winner given his precocious pedigree. He is by Gr.1 Blue Diamond-winning Star Witness, who won 3 of his 4 2yo starts and is from 5-time Stakes winning sprinter Golden Delicious.

Dam: SKYANN 

SKYANN by SMART MISSILE Unraced. This is her first foal.

She hails from a strong pedigree with General Nediym, Pins and Danehill all prominent in her bloodlines.

Trainers: MICK PRICE & MICHAEL KENT Jnr

Mick Price gained his license in 1991 and while he enjoyed some early success the big move came in 1996 when he moved into stables at Caulfield that Lee Freedman had previously operated from. The move to Caulfield saw Price move from a bit part to a big player in the Victorian training ranks. He is now firmly established in the top echelon of trainers not only in Victoria but Australia.

Mick Price has prepared more than 100 winners a season for the past 10 seasons, a position that puts him in rare company. He has enjoyed abundance of success with 36 Group 1 wins and more than 2000 career wins.

Mick Price has a fantastic record with two-year-olds and has produced a number of stallions including Extreme Choice and Flying Artie which both have started stud duties in the 2017 season.
