Both Chris Anderson and I are delighted to have secured this TRAPEZE ARTIST filly, out of Stakes placed mare, Designated Driver. Trapeze Artist is definitely a sire on the rise, with Griff (first season foal) winning the Stallion making race in the Group 1 Caulfield Guineas! He’s LEADING SECOND-SEASON SIRE by WINNERS and PRIZE MONEY, plus has another 2 stakes winners on Saturday (April 6) at the Championships!
This filly’s dam, Designated Driver, was a 4 time place getter in group & listed company, and has had 3 foals to race for 2 winners.
Further down her page, you’ll find BLACK TYPE everywhere – DEE I CEE, RUSSIAN PLAYMATE, COME PLAY WITH ME (Gr.1 Metropolitan), DANIEL & MR MALEK.
She is paid up for Magic Millions, and is also both QTIS & BOBS eligible, meaning Chris can attack in both states chasing the riches!
We purchased this filly using our proven, stringent criteria, which is returning winners at an extraordinary rate of knots!
Spotless X-rays, clean scope, athletic filly with a deep girth, and a strong hip and shoulder – WOW!
Just this year, Vardy Thoroughbreds has had 5 individual winners – Taking The Mikki ($15K purchase), Winning Proposal ($50K purchase and 4th in the Inglis Millennium), Media Frenzy ($20K purchase), Hellbent On You ($75K purchase), and Hell Of A Show ($80K purchase).
This filly was purchased for $50K, so she represents huge #vardyvalue
