1:49.4 - $987,884. Bay Horse, Foaled 2000, 15.3 Hands.
Here is a great looking son of Artiscape who is siring foals with his own stamp on them.
What impressed us about Artesian? Well he was a tall athletic individual, clean gaited (raced without boots throughout his career) and was a seriously good 3yo in North America in 2003.
He also possesses a pedigree that is just right for the Southern Hemisphere – a grandson of the late and great Artsplace from a mare by Falcon Seelster, a stallion who is amazingly successful in this part of the world.
The double cross of the champion broodmare Breath O’ Spring in his pedigree was also considered influential.
Artesian has made a great start to his career leaving 10 2yo winners including the dual Group winner David Hercules, as well as the Group placed trio Jorg Is Best, Bella Jam Jam and Salem.
• Winner of the $500,000 New Jersey Classic and $275,000 Berrys Creek Final at three.
• Runner up (by a neck) in the $1.5 million North America Cup in 2003.
• Paced in 1:50 or better in 10 of his 20 starts as a 4yo.
• His full brother Maltese Artist 1:48.6 is now a $2 million winner.
In the Southern Hemisphere Artesian’s oldest progeny are 3yo's. To date he is the sire of 13 winners:
