Vandoula Lass

A phenomenally well-put-together filly, she ticks all the boxes and was one of the nicest types of the sale. With a big shoulder, girth, and hindquarter, she has everything going for her. A lovely walk with a big overstep, she really is a pleasure to watch.

By DOUBTLAND, a Group 3-winning 2-year-old in the Kindergarten Stakes, then maturing at 3 to take out the Group 2 Danehill in devastating fashion, all from only 8 career starts! He possessed an enormous turn of foot, and it’s fair to say we didn’t get to see the very best of Doubtland on the racetrack. He is by champion sire NOT A SINGLE DOUBT, who is fast emerging as our premier sire of sires in Australia. A $1.1 million yearling, DOUBTLAND clearly has the looks, pedigree, ability, and precociousness to be a top stallion.

Out of VANDOULA LASS, a mare who was an early runner herself with an abundance of speed. She only had 4 starts for a win, second, third, and a 7th in the Group 3 Kindergarten Stakes to Group 1 winner and now stallion Paulele. The second dam unfortunately passed after VANDOULA LASS, but she has the perfect record of 2 foals for 2 winners, and it definitely begs the question of what could have been if she had the chance to breed more foals, especially given the ability VANDOULA LASS had on the racetrack.
