Horse Overview
Purchased for $25,000 at the Melbourne Inglis Premier Yearling Sale 2024
A lovely raw filly with a tremendous walk. She has a nice, big athletic frame. As she grows and matures, she will become an impressive-looking specimen.
Breeding:
By the exciting first-season sire TAGALOA, a precocious and tough racehorse who loved a battle. A Group 1 winner of Victoria’s premier 2-year-old race, the Blue Diamond Stakes, and an impressive Group 3 winner at 3 in the CS Hayes over 1400m before being quickly retired for stud duties. Himself, an athletic and imposing type by the Japanese star Stallion LORD KANALOA, sire of 70% winners and 9 individual Group 1 winners, including the Japanese superstar mare ALMOND EYE, who was also the world champion in 2020.
Out of the European mare DAL RIATA, she hails from an early running family littered with black-type winners, and she herself was placed at 2 and is a half-sister to the 2-year-old Group 1 winner CARRY ON KATIE.
DAL RIATA is a young mare with four foals to date and has produced a multiple winner with her first foal to race.
