Hawkes Racing picks up $5million colt

The half-brother to Black Caviar, who was sold for $5 milllion during this week's Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, will be trained by Hawkes Racing.

BC3 Thoroughbreds purchased the colt by Redoute’s Choice out of Helsinge, setting a new Australian record for the most expensive yearling ever sold in the country.

Hawkes Racing has been in charge of Black Caviar’s other half-brother All Too Hard, winner of three Group I races to date.

All Too Hard is due to run next in the Group I All Aged Stakes (1400m) at Randwick on April 27.
