Drinks on Embellish’s son in HK

Embellish’s flagship performer in Hong Kong has continued his good run of form.

Fortune Whiskey was successful over 1200 metres at Happy Valley to make it two victories and a placing from his last three starts for multiple Group 1-winning trainer David Eustace.

Our young stallion’s first winner in Hong Kong, the four-year-old showed rich promise in New Zealand before relocating.

As Whiskey Lies, he posted a two-year-old hat-trick of wins at Ruakaka for trainer Kenny Rae which culminated in his Winter Championship Final triumph to fast track his sale overseas.

He was originally purchased out of Wentwood Grage’s draft for $12,000 at New Zealand Bloodstock’s National Yearling Sale.

A half-brother to a brace of winners, Fortune Whiskey is a son of the Darci Brahma mare Champagne Katie whose dam Lycra was the Group 1 winner of the Ellerslie Sires’ Produce Stakes and the Manawatu Sires’ Produce Stakes.
