Maurice x Riversleigh

Colt

Purchased for $140,000.00 at the 2026 Sydney Inglis Classic Yearling Sale

A beautifully composed chestnut colt by international Group 1 star Maurice, this is a pedigree steeped in elite performance across both hemispheres

Maurice, a Hong Kong Mile winner and one of Japan’s most accomplished modern milers, has established himself as a high-class sire in Australia and abroad. His progeny include six Group 1 winners, highlighted locally by Hitotsu, along with stakes performers that consistently demonstrate class and versatility

The colt is out of Riversleigh (JPN), a daughter of Duramente and from one of the most distinguished Australasian female families

He is a grandson of the exceptional Mosheen, winner of four Group 1 races including the VRC Oaks, Australian Guineas, Randwick Guineas and Vinery Stud Stakes

Mosheen herself placed in a Golden Slipper and excelled from 1000m to 2500m, a rare blend of speed and stamina.

Mosheen has produced Primo Scene, a multiple Group winner in Japan, and Danon Ayers Rock, a stakes winner by Maurice

On inspection, this colt presents with a fluent, effortless outline. He has a smooth shoulder, quality head, and an elegant length of rein that gives him a refined appearance. There is depth through the heart girth and strength carried low through the hip, suggesting both propulsion and staying power. He stands correct and well-proportioned, with a relaxed, confident demeanour that reflects mental composure. His overall impression is one of athletic poise rather than bulk, a colt built with scope and balance.

A pedigree anchored by a four-time Group 1-winning granddam and an internationally proven sire, matched with an athletic, well-proportioned physique. A colt that offers the potential to develop into a classic-style performer with international appeal.
