Un-named (Splintex – Hallowell Angel)

It seems everyone wanted a Splintex at the 2026 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale, and we bagged the first lot through the ring on Day 2.

With his oldest progeny just two-year-olds, the general opinion amongst local trainers is that they’re runners for sure, and when they hit their straps as a late two-year-olds later this season and into next as three year olds, you’re going to see some very nice horses.

This is a strong, robust, attractive filly with a big fluent stride and a purposeful walk powered by big hindquarters. Correct leg conformation means that there’s plenty to like about her, and she’s got a beautiful temperament which will stand her in good stead for a racing career.

Looking at her pedigree, every Dam on the page is a winner who has gone on to produce multiple winners. Her first Dam Hallowell Angel has had 2 to race for 2 winners, her second Dam Wheatland Lady has had 9 to race for 8 winners, and her third Dam Pay The Piper has had 12 to race for 10 winners. Featuring in this pedigree is the impressive VRC Lightning Stakes winner GYTRASH who won 10 races and over $3.7M.

She’ll be trained at Ascot by the very likeable Josh Brown who last year made the move from Esperance to have a crack at making it in the city. A delight to work with, he’s got some of the best stables at Ascot, and absolutely loves the stock of Splintex having 7 current two year olds by the stallion on his team at present, one of which is the very promising Yamanex who placed in this season’s $250,000 Magic Millions Classic at just it’s second start.
