Aquis Books 'Artist' for Everest

Trapeze Artist | Darren Tindale

Fresh off Monday's news that Trapeze Artist (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}) will remain in training as a 4-year-old, the triple-Group 1 winner has been snapped up by Aquis Farm for its Everest slot this October. Second choice in the wagering behind last year's inaugural winner Redzel (Aus) (Snitzel {Aus}) in the A$13-million 1200-metre race, the Gerald Ryan trainee just landed the G1 All Aged S. on Saturday.

“I'm delighted to get a slot in The Everest with Aquis,” owner/breed Bert Vieira told The Sydney Morning Herald. “I want to race him and show him off to the world and to get a spot in The Everest is the first part of that dream. Knowing Shane McGrath, the Aquis CEO, from his Coolmore days made the negotiations very easy and smooth and to be sharing this experience with Aquis will only make it better.”
