Sebring is an Australian thoroughbred racehorse born on 23rd September 2005. He is a chestnut son of More Than Ready and Purespeed.
Bred by Corumbene Stud Pty Ltd, he was sold at the 2007 Conrad Jupiters Magic Millions Sale to Star Thoroughbreds for Au$130,000.[1]
Currently a 2 year old colt, he has won all his five starts, including Group One wins in the Golden Slipper and AJC Sires Produce Stakes.
In Sydney, Blake Shinn, a former Victorian jockey, forfeited the $3,525,800 Golden Slipper ride to Glen Boss because of suspension. He returned to the $450,000 AJC Sires Produce Stakes at Randwick in which he rode Sebring to win the race, the second leg of the triple crown.
On 3 May, 2008 Sebring failed to complete the juvenile triple crown when beaten by a head in the Champagne Stakes by Samantha Miss.
