This represents a unique opportunity for the bloodstock community to buy two successful racehorses that come from strong, Group 1 producing families.
VISINDAR won three races in his five race career including the Group 2 Prix Greffulhe by 4 lengths before starting favourite for the 2006 Epsom Derby. The son of Sinndar ran honorably to finish 5th behind Sir Percy, beaten just over 2 lengths by the winner.
Out of the winning Mr Prospector mare, Visor, VISINDAR is a half brother to 4 black type performers including Group 3 winning and Group 1 placed, Visorama, Listed winning and Group 1 placed, Visionary and Group 1 placed Visionnaire, herself the dam of 2007 stakes performers Visionario and Vison Celebre. From a proven family of Group 1 producers and sires, VISINDAR is related to Group 1 winners Swale, Forty Niner, Yamanin, Shadeed and Brunswick.
DARAMSAR has won five races including the Group 2 Prix de Conseil de Paris (2400m) and the Listed Grand Prix de Clairefontaine (2400m), both in 2006. This year he has also finished 3rd in the Listed Prix Right Royal.
He is the 2nd foal of Prix de Diane and Prix Vermeille winner Daryaba. He is a half brother to stakes placed Daryamar (Machiavellian) and Douraya, who won her only start this year as a 3yo. Daryaba is currently in foal to Kingmambo. DARAMSAR is closely related to the 2007 Poule d’Essai des Pouliches and Prix d’Astarté winner, Darjina and the 2006 Prix du Jockey Club winner, Darsi.
