Description

The filly's sire STAR WITNESS was named the second best 2YO in the country after he won the Blue Diamond Stakes-G1 and the best 3YO sprinter in the country after his win in the Coolmore Stud Stakes-G1. Previous Blue Diamond winners include Champion sires Redoute's Choice and Bel Esprit while Coolmore Stakes winners include Encosta De Lago, Northern Meteor, Sepoy and Zoustar


To put it bluntly, Star Witness could not be better credentialed to make it as a stallion and his first crop of yearlings have sold to all the top trainers in the country


Her dam LA ITALIA was named the second best 2YO filly in New Zealand after winning the Wakefield Challenge Stakes-G2, and New Zealand Bloodstock Classique-LR while she was also third in the ARC Diamond Stakes-G1.


This is just the third foal from La Italia who is by leading broodmare sire Stravinsky with the likes of Group 1 winners Mosheen and Rip Van Winkle out of his daughters.


A copy of her pedigree is attached but you will see there is a stack of black type performers with the Caulfield Thousand Guineas-G1 winner Irish Lights included. This filly is a direct descendant of arguably the best family anywhere in the world with her 3rd dam River Crossing being a half sister to one of the best broodmares ever in Fall Aspen.


She has great presence about her, a beautiful head, good bone, deep girth and a powerful hind quarter. She still has some growing to do which I like and she will furnish into a really quality filly. I suspect she will be a sprinter early in her career and then get out to 1600m or so later on.


I'm very pleased to announce that John, Wayne and Michael Hawkes are going to train the filly and I think this works on many levels.


> Having run the Ingham and then Darley operation with great success for many years there is no better educator, conditioner and traveller of horses.


> Our filly is both BOBS (NSW) and Vobis (VIC) qualified as well as paid up for Magic Millions (QLD) so there is plenty of extra prizemoney on offer for her to be placed to advantage in either state.


> Team Hawkes has stables in Sydney and Melbourne meaning she can get used to racing and working in both directions should we find the best race for her is interstate.


Its probably fair to say there is no one going better than Team Hawkes at present and with John closing in 100 Group 1 wins he has shown he can win Golden Slippers but also has the patience to win an Oaks or Derby.
