YEAR OF THE TIGER

OK, it might not make the hairs on your neck stand up, but you’d have to say that Strike The Tiger winning a stakes race on the first day of the Chinese New Year – the Year of the Tiger – is more than a little serendipitous.

Dr Vu Van Tu and his wife Amanda Lockett have been on fire of late, producing Bel Esprit stakes winners, Silver Bullion and Strike The Tiger, since the start of January.
Fortunately for the pair, they will sell a Dash For Cash half brother (Lot 69) to VRC Kensington Stakes-LR winner Silver Bullion at the Tasmanian Magic Millions Yearling Sale at Launceston next Tuesday (23 February) and the colt should go close to topping the sale.
