Damaschino Sold to Vinery

By Last Tycoon from the New Zealand-bred mare Princess Jocinda (Imposing-Jocasta), Damaschino has only once failed to earn a stake, and that was in her first ever start. At two years she won three of her five races up to listed stakes level and finished third in the Gr.2 BNZ Matamata Breeders Stakes.
She proved remarkably consistent again last season when her placings included a third in the Gr.1 New Zealand Oaks and second in the Gr.2 Eight Carat Classic.
She was trained at Te Awamutu by Robert Priscott for major stable client Terry Jarvis, who several weeks ago sold his Cambridge breeding concern, The Oaks.
Damaschino originated from Vinerys New South Wales property, having been consigned as a Sydney Easter Sale yearling for a stud client. General manager Peter Orton is looking forward to her progress from the James stable.
Well see how she settles in at Flemington and take it from there, he told ThoroughbredNEWS.
Shes a lovely mare who has shown enough to expect her to be up to metropolitan class.
