21 for St Mark’s Basilica

Coolmore shuttler sire St Mark’s Basilica (Siyouni) registered his 21st individual winner when Art Gallery (2 f ex Fughetta by Dubawi) scored in a seven-furlong restricted novice event at Newcastle on Tuesday. The James Ferguson-trained filly ran on strongly in the closing stages to win at the third attempt by a length and a half over Viking Glory (Cotai Glory) with Okiru (Blue Point) another length away in third. Bred by Watership Down Stud, Art Gallery sold for 42,000gns to David Redvers at Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale last year and races in the colours of Qatar Racing. She is the second foal and second winner out of the unraced Dubawi (Dubai Millennium) mare Fughetta, herself a daughter of four-time Group 1 winner The Fugue (Dansili). St Mark’s Basilica is standing at Coolmore Australia at an unchanged fee of $38,500 (inc GST).
