Massive price for La Montagna given that the pedigree page isn't what you'd call, top shelf

This is the one I like....but just out of my reach, so I let Nathan have her.

Stable switch - Top mare now belongs to Gai

Thursday, 16 April 2009

Bonny mare Belong To Many has joined the Gai Waterhouse stable and will be prepared for a Brisbane winter campaign.

The Group II winner was knocked down to Vin Cox Bloodstock, buying on behalf of a client, for $525,000 on Tuesday at the Inglis Australian Easter Broodmare Sale at Newmarket.

Waterhouse took delivery of Belong To Many late Wednesday and the mare made her first appearance for the champion trainer at trackwork on Thursday morning.

“She only had a trot and canter at Randwick this morning and you could see why her previous owners loved her,” Waterhouse stable manager Robyn Hartney said.

“She’s just a beautiful mare and we’re very pleased to have her with us.

“Gai has decided to target the fillies and mares races up in Brisbane with her, races like the Silk Stocking and we might even step her up to 1400 metre races like the Group I Winter Stakes.”

Former trainer Barbara Joseph shed a little tear after Belong To Many’s fighting second to Court in last Saturday’s Sapphire Stakes in her final start for the stable but was pleased to see the mare go to the Waterhouse stable.

“All I wanted was for her to go to a decent place after racing with us,” Joseph said.
“She’s done that now, I’m pleased with that,” Joseph said.
