Keysbrook – the dam of Group 1 winning juvenile She's Extreme (Extreme Choice) – is the latest high-profile entry for next month's Inglis Chairman's Sale.

A four-time stakes placegetter as a three-year-old, Keysbrook produced She's Extreme, her second foal to race has won twice and placed in another two of her six starts to date with her biggest victory coming in the Champagne Stakes (Gr 1, 1600m) at Randwick earlier this month. She's Extreme was a $275,000 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale purchase by her trainer Anthony Cummings.

Her first foal – and only other foal to race – Ruru (So You Think) is a four-time winner, was a $250,000 purchase at the Inglis Easter Yearling Sale.

Keysbrook joins Stakes winner and dual Group 1 placegetter Harmony Rose (Glass Harmonium), stakes producer Perfect Persuasion (Myboycharlie) (in foal to the world's hottest stallion Extreme Choice), talented Group placed mare Don'ttelltheboss (Street Boss), a share in Extreme Choice (Not A Single Doubt) plus well-bred young mare First Channel (Hinchinbrook) in foal to Zoustar (Norther Meteor) as part of a the 2022 Chairman's Sale catalogue.

Randwick Bloodstock's Brett Howard, who will offer Keysbrook as part of the Glenesk Thoroughbreds draft which will also include dual Group 1 winner Shout The Bar (Not A Single Doubt) and Group 2 winner Only Words (Sweynesse) among its mares, described Keysbrook as "a high-quality broodmare''.

"She was a two-year-old winner herself and trained on to place in a Derby and an Oaks and I'm extremely confident buyers will love her when they see her,'' Howard said.

"You can look at her and see why she was a good racehorse and she's throwing that into her produce as well, as reflected by their results in the sale ring.

"She's a beautiful mare, everyone will see that when they pull her out of the box, she's medium sized with nice strength and scope, a good shoulder, nice girth, just a quality type.''

On She's Extreme, Howard added: "She's so adaptable, she won a 1200 metre Group 3 and a 1600 metre Group 1 and you'd like to think she'll train on in the spring and beyond.

"She's likely to be targeted toward a Golden Rose (1400m) and maybe a Flight Stakes (1600m) and she could even end up in a race like the Cox Plate (2040m), her pedigree suggests she should run a strong 2000 metres.

"It's one of those families that has been very versatile, they've been able to win at two and train on so I suspect this filly will as well.''

The sale will begin at 4.30pm on Friday May 6 at Riverside Stables.
