This horse will make a two-year-old I think, especially as he is out of an Exceed And Excel mare.

The weanling crop by Written Tycoon are still off the low service fee and the horse\u2019s appearance certainly outweighed his pedigree,&#8221; Anderson said.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>-ANZ Bloodstock News<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the conclusion of the Magic Millions Weanling Sale Amarina Farm\u00a0sold nine weanlings for an aggregate of $855,500 at an average of $95,056.\u00a0 This placed the Denman-based farm as third leading vendor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16935,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/WT.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16934"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16934"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16934\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16937,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16934\/revisions\/16937"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16935"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16934"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16934"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/amarinafarm.com.au\/site\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16934"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
