New Zealand superstar mare Volpe Veloce (Foxwedge) is one of the stand-out lots of the upcoming Inglis Chairman's Sale and she will be offered by the Volpe Veloce Partnership
Volpe Veloce announced herself as a true star of the track in New Zealand when she won her first seven starts, including the Eight Carat Classic (Gr 2, 1600m) and Karaka 3YO Mile (RL, 1600m) - and further two at stakes level.
However, her crowning glory came when she landed the 2018 Railway Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m), beating the likes of multiple Group 1-winning mare Melody Belle (Commands).
The mare retired the winner of 12 of her 30 starts, which included seven wins at stakes level and accumulated $639,442 in career prize-money.
The daughter of Foxwedge (Fastnet Rock) is out of Group 3 winner Bardego (Barathea) making her a half-sister to Listed winner Delago Bolt (Delago Brom).
