Both Luke Pepper (Trainer) and myself loved “Grace” from the first moment we saw her, and after some rigorous inspections, we decided that this was “our girl”. She’s by champion race horse, and sire, So You Think (10 time Group 1 winner and dual Cox Plate winner), out of a proven producer in Modonna (More Than Ready).
Modonna was not only a 3-time winner form only 8 starts, but she was also Stakes placed! She’s had 7 foals to race with 4 winners, including blood-brother, So You Too, who won 7 times and was placed 3 times in Stakes grade! View Listing Here
Astern is a horse who created a big impression from the get-go, winning two of his first three starts including the Gr.2 Silver Slipper Stakes and the Gr.3 Kindergarten Stakes, Astern was even better at three adding to his resume the Gr.2 Run To The Rose and the Gr.1 Golden Rose.
At stud he has proven to be a reliable source of classy winners with 14 stakes winners – including the Gr.1 gallopers Golden Mile and Affaire A Suivre – amongst his 229 winners. Another 14 of his progeny are stakes placed and another 30 are metropolitan winners.
Those statistics give you a great chance of having some fun racing an Astern with 26% of his winners being at least city class! View Listing Here
A filly who we purchased for $260,000 from Emirates Park. She is out of a Redoute’s Choice mare, Varenna Miss who was a winner of a Group 2 and holds one of the best pedigrees from the catalogue. This remarkable pedigree not only enhances her immediate racing prospects but also augments her potential value as a future broodmare.
Furthermore, she is a half-sister to Strada Varenna, an impressive 2YO debut winner at Canterbury, who is currently in training with Bjorn Baker. This early success in the family further underscores the quality and potential of this filly. View Listing Here
