The Varsfontein Stud bred Silver Thursday, purchased for R1.3-million by Form Bloodstock at the 2016 National Yearling Sale, was an impressive winner first time out at the Vaal recently.<\/p>\n
Trained by Mike de Kock, the filly came with a late rattle to land a juvenile plate over 1 200m by two- and-a-half lengths at the expense of the well regarded Australian-bred favourite Fish River.<\/p>
Silver Thursday is owned by Mauritzfontein, Maine Chance Farms and Coolmore\u2019s Mrs John Magnier \u2013and her connections are expected to once again be in attendance at next month\u2019s National Yearling Sale.<\/p>\n
