Sansom is SW9 for Charm Spirit winning the Gr3 Chatham Stakes (1400m) at Flemington.
Inbred 4×4 to Danzig, Sansom sold to trainer Philip Stokes for $140,000 as a yearling at the Magic Millions Gold Coast sale from the Kitchwin Hills draft and had previously been placed at Gr3 level and is now the winner of eight of his 17 starts.
Bred by Qatar Bloodstock, Sansom is the only foal to race for Bryony (Fastnet Rock), a winning sister to Gr1 Diamond Stakes at Ellerslie winner Heroic Valour and half-sister to Gr1 Doncaster Handicap winner Triple Honour (Honours List).
The third-dam San Pauli Girl (Western Symphony) won the Gr2 Sedgwick Classic at Morphettville.
Gr1 winner Charm Spirit (Invincible Spirit) was the leading first-season sire in New Zealand in 2018-19 when he shuttled to Haunui Farm and is now a permanent resident of Tweenhills Farm in England where he is advertised at €8,500 in 2020.
