Just Janet provides Zoustar with first northern hemisphere-bred winner
Filly a Tattersalls Book 3 graduate when selling to Jason Kelly for 55,000gns
Tweenhills Farm resident and shuttler Zoustar was provided with his first northern hemisphere-bred winner when Just Janet obliged at the third time of asking for trainer David O'Meara at Wetherby on Tuesday.
Just Janet was bred by Peter Winkworth and sold to Jason Kelly from Hillwood Stud for 55,000gns from Book 3 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale.
The two-year-old is the first foal out of Excelebration mare Coral Sea, a winner and half-sister to two winners, namely New Approach filly Ocean Paradise and Muhaarar colt Fiji.
Coral Sea is out of Oak Tree and Supreme Stakes winner Tropical Paradise, a Verglas half-sister to Flying Childers Stakes scorer and Mickley Stud sire Ubettabelieveit as well as Italian Group 3 winner Harlem Shake and stakes scorer and Group-placed Shenanigans.
Coral Sea, also a graduate of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sales when making 100,000gns to SackvilleDonald from Hillwood at Book 1 in 2015, has a yearling sister to Just Janet.
Zoustar, who shuttles to Widden Stud in New South Wales, Australia, where he will stand for a fee of $198,000 this upcoming season, has supplied 21 individual Group winners in the southern hemisphere so far, including Group 1 scorers Sunlight, Mizzy and Zoutori.
Other high-class performers down under by the 11-year-old son of Northern Meteor include Group 2 winners Lightsaber, Lean Mean Machine, Haut Brion Her, Glistening, Madame Rouge and Zousain.
He resides at David Redvers' Tweenhills Farm alongside Qipco 2,000 Guineas and Vertem Futurity Trophy hero Kameko, fellow first-season sire and Sussex Stakes winner Lightning Spear and Group 1-winning sire Havana Gold.
He stood this past northern hemisphere season for a fee of £25,000.
