Prozero the final of the Lindsay Park owned broodmares was sold to William Inglis as Agent for the sum of $15,000 a half sister to three individual winners including the talented Hurricane Silver.

“The results are a reflection of the quality mares Econsul served last season. Econsul was supported by some of the industry’s leading breeders and from first impressions of Econsul’s first foals they are of outstanding quality. Econsul is leaving beautifully balanced and strong foals with plenty of bone and substance to them”. Nominations Manager Mitchell Coffey quoted soon after the sale had concluded.
