October 22, 2012Zac Influence – 3rd in Gr 1 Raffles Cup, Singapore
Already a winner of the Singapore Group Three TC Proinn Construct Stakes over 1800m, the Cliff Brown-trained runner finished third in the local Group One contest after settling second last in the field of 13 and making up many lengths in the run.
By Rock Of Gibraltar and out of the multiple stakes-performed Quest For Fame mare Kidman, Zac Influence comes from the family of top line Group One gallopers including Melito, Zeditave, Alannon and Greys Inn.
Purchased from the 2009 Inglis Easter yearling sale by his trainer for $60,000, so impressed was he with how Zac Influence was progressing, that he returned in 2011 to purchase Kidman’s next yearling, a Flying Spur half-brother, this time going to $140,000 to secure the colt.
