Description

Terrific opportunity to purchase a high class filly with an enormous amount of upside who has genuine Group / City form lines.


Curtain Calls is a 3yo filly by the outstanding sire Charge Forward with a great pedigree that includes the stallion Dreamscape.


Standing around 16hh, she is a terrific type and currently in full work at Flemington.


She is very lightly raced only having had the 6 starts for a win and 3 placings.


She last raced at Sandown over 1400m in a 0-68 on the 20th February and after sitting 3 and 4 wide the entire trip, finished only 2.5L from the winner.


Her previous start on the 9th of February she won at Bendigo over 1400m by 1.5L, beating Maraatib who ran 4th in the Group 1 VRC Oaks and 2nd in the Group 2 Wakeful Stakes!


The start before that she ran 2nd to Winter Chilla, who then went to Caulfield and won an 80k race beating Ha Lil, who subsequently won at Mooney Valley!


She has terrific formlines that will be competitive anywhere around Australia.


Vet checks and inspections are welcomed.
