JUST GORGEOUS (bred in 2014 by Fastnet Rock-Satinka (NZ)) is a lightly-raced multiple placegetter in and around Sydney and is notably a daughter of the very good New Zealand filly Satinka (NZ). A well-named filly who was a $400,000 yearling and whose Zoustar halfsister sold for $525,000 in 2018, Just Gorgeous is one of four fillies already produced by Satinka, the first being the multiple Sydney winner Hoybell. On the track, Satinka won four and was the second top filly on the NZ 2YO Free Handicap. She was a triple G2 winner and was twice G1 placed. Her stakes-placed half-sister She Wishes produced a racetrack titan in Rangirangdoo ($2.2 million) whose 10 triumphs included the G1 Doncaster Handicap and G1 George Ryder Stakes, also placing G1 second on five occasions. Just Gorgeous’s champion sire Fastnet Rock is a dual hemisphere sensation needing no introduction. His daughters have already produced the likes of Santa Ana Lane, Tivaci and Omei Sword.

NATIONAL VELVET (bred in 2012 by Commands-Nonchalance) is a home-bred filly who was a sparingly-raced winner brought back into the stud when Burnewang North had the misfortune to lose her dam, Nonchalance, who had the makings of a valuable broodmare.  Nonchalance, Lonhro, left three winners from four foals, the best being lightly-raced stakes-placed Niccolance ($251,660), a handsome son of Nicconi who won two races in Sydney after finishing fourth in the Gold Coast Magic Millions 2YO Classic before his career was cut short. Nonchalance was acquired from Darley who picked up the line upon their acquisition of Woodlands' bloodstock.  The family has done great service for all who have tapped into it. Nonchalance’s dam Insouciance left G1 winner Complacent (as well as recent stakeswinner Ataraxia), the next dam left three stakeswinners including triple G1 victor Dracula while the next dam produced G1 winners Masked Party and Festal.  National Velvet is inbred to Eight Carat 3f x 4m and her first foal will be by Nicconi. Her late sire Commands is broodmare sire of 33 stakes performers to date.

NAZCA (bred in 2011 by Medaglia d’Oro (USA)-Peruvian (GB) was a Godolphin colour-bearer with almost $100,000 earnings in Sydney when acquired by Burnewang North as a four-year-old.  She is due to have her first foal by Pride Of Dubai.  A daughter of world-ranked sire Medaglia d’Oro, Nazca is one of five winners from her dam; a sister Chachapoyas was stakes-placed and a half-brother Tupac Amaru finished second in the G1 Australian Derby. Her biggest attraction is her classic connections being a grand-daughter of the Shirley Heights mare High Hawk, the dam of In The Wings. This pair of European G1 winners are just two of more than 70 – and counting - black-type performers descending from third dam Sunbittern.  A few notables include Dubawi, Infamy, High-Rise, Virginia Waters and Chachamaidee.  Her sire Medaglia d'Oro, one of North America's premier sires, has 113 stakeswinners (21 in G1) including the champion fillies Songbird and Rachel Alexander and is already a G1-producing broodmare sire.  Nazca is bred 3m x 4f to Sadler’s Wells but is free of Danzig-Danehill.

SORT AFTER (bred in 2012 by Wanted-Patronyme) enters the Burnewang North breeding group after a very tidy racing career in which she registered four wins in the 1300m-1700m distance range and was a top-four finisher in four black-type events. Trained in Sydney, Sort After made three sorties interstate, the first to Melbourne where she won at Flemington on Derby Day then followed up with a half-length second in the G2 Matriarch Stakes on Oaks Day. Sent to Adelaide for its autumn carnival, Sort After came away with a close second in the Centaurea Stakes and fourth, beaten under two lengths, in the G2 Queen Of The South Stakes. Her final black-type placing was another close fourth in the Mona Lisa Stakes shortly before her assignation with champion Pierro to whom she is now in foal. Sort After is a grand-daughter of Fastnet Rock through his G1 winning son Wanted and is the second foal of Patronyme, by More Than Ready.  Patronyme had a lot of speed and won six of 16 starts, all in Sydney, highlighted by victory in the G3 Birthday Card Stakes at Rosehill in which she beat the G1-winning millionaires Beaded and Melito. Another important success was the Triscay Stakes with such notables as Dane Julia (SAf) and Hurtle Myrtle in her wake. Patronyme is a half-sister to stakeswinner Angels Beach. The family was introduced to Australia via the Vaguely Noble mare Literary Prize (USA) who was a half-sister to the champion European filly Flying Water.
