adminIt’s an exciting time for the stable as RAGING RUSH (By Sooboog) gears up for the $200,000 Inglis Challenge to be held on Day 1 of the Scone Cup Carnival.
The flashy chestnut was purchased from the 2021 HTBA Yearling Sale for $19,000 Mane Lodge and with the Inglis Race Series being ticked off we are set to go.
Experienced bloodstock consultant Rod Scott was very bullish about this colt at the sale and being from the same family as Wellington Boot winner I AM SNIPPETY he was hard to pass up.

”RAGING RUSH was scratched from the Golden Nugget at Bathurst in preference for a freshen up at Tophut Equine Centre Dubbo. The Sooboog Colt will be closely watched by Kitchwin Hills as they look for the next star out of this promising stallion and Mane Lodge will be hoping Fiery Redhead gets the reward for producing a precocious 2YO to upgrade the family.
