Dare MASTER FAY’S NEWMARKET CHANCE Dream to
By Patrick Bartley
C had and Aliesha Ormsby never anticipated being part of history in the $1.5 million Group 1 Yulong Newmarket Handicap at Flemington. However, they are taking a significant leap of faith by bringing one of New Zealand’s fastest racehorses to participate in the celebrated sprint race. The journey began at the NZB Karaka Yearling Sale in 2019, where trainer Chad Ormsby acquired an athletic son of the renowned stallion Deep Field for NZD$100,000. Originally intended for the NZB Ready To Run sale in New Zealand, the colt, later named Master Fay, garnered attention after impressive trials, leading to a lucrative sale to Hong Kong. “He was very exciting. His trials were brilliant and soon the phone started ringing from bloodstock agents trying to buy the horse before the sale,” said Ormsby.
