Group 1-winning four-year-old to be offered for sale next week.
Breeders will have an opportunity to purchase a Group 1 winner early next month with Magic Millions to offer Gold Standard mare Sheeza Belter via a standalone online auction.
Last year's J J Atkins winner will be up for grabs from 3pm on Thursday, October 5.
The JJ Atkins win was the standout performance among five career wins for the $50,000 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale purchase, who started her career in Western Australia, where she won two of three starts before heading to the east coast.
Under Peter and Paul Snowden she won the Queensland Sires' Produce Stakes (1400m) and Hot Danish Stakes (1400m), while she also finished third in this year's Group 1 Coolmore Classic (1500m), won by Espiona.
She was put up for sale after failing to beat home a rival in Saturday's Group 2 Golden Pendant, which was her only start in the care of Annabel Neasham.
Magic Millions managing director Barry Bowditch is thrilled his company has been given the opportunity to sell the four-year-old.
"During her career Sheeza Belter raced against elite company," Bowditch said.
"She showed ability right from the start of her career in Perth and just kept getting better. What she was able to achieve in just 15 starts - with earnings of over $1.88 million - is quite remarkable."
Sheeza Belter will be offered for sale virtually via the same online bidding platform used at all Magic Millions live auctions, with auctioneer Clint Donovan presiding over the sale process.
