Description

Beautifully bred filly by the royally bred Group 1 winner ASTERN, half-sister to 6x winner plus recent Stakes Placed LAURE ME IN and close descendent from “the best female family in the USA”. Secured from the NZ Karaka Yearling Sale in partnership with Leading trainers Ciaron Maher & David Eustace.


Sire Update: Astern sires his first Stakes winner with SERADESS bolting in by 5 lengths in the recent Listed Cinderella Stakes!


WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT HER:


A beautiful filly with a beautiful pedigree! She presents as a lovely Spring 3yo Classic prospect and has the quality, athleticism and scope we love to see in a young filly!


** An elegant physical type with her very athletic frame, excellent scope with great length of leg and rein, correct conformation and the attractive head all high-quality fillies possess.


** By the Group 1 Golden Rose winner in ASTERN and Leading trainers Ciaron & David are very bullish on the sire, having a sharp 2YO in the stable named Own The Night (debuted as a pre-Xmas Stakes 2yo and Metro placed at his 2nd start), and that gave us extra confidence to be strong on this filly that we adored on type.


** Oh, and in Paul Willetts words, "she descends from the best female family in the USA!" Plus... she's a half-sister to 4 winners including 6 x Winner and recent Stakes Place-getter Laure Me In #catalogueupgrade She sure did lure us in!


BREEDING:


Sire – ASTERN (by Medaglia D’Oro)


** The highest rated son of superstar stallion Medaglia D’Oro (who stands for $250k US), Astern was a pre-Christmas 2yo debut winner by 6 lengths, Group 2 & Group 3 winner as a 2yo plus winner of the Group 1 Golden Rose at 3yo and runner-up in the stallion making Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes beating Star Turn, Russian Revolution, Extreme Choice! From only 9 career starts, he won 5 (4 at Group level) as a 2yo & 3yo and placed twice at Group 1 & 2 level


** Plus he’s royally bred being the half-brother to Champion 3yo filly and 3 x Group 1 winner ALIZEE making him a descend of another Champion in TRISCAY!


** He's on the board with his first crop are with impressive Stakes Winner and undefeated SERADESS, Sydney City placed filly DIVINA and City Placed and Stakes performed on debut OWN THE NIGHT


Dam – Laurelling (by Highest Honour)


** Not often do you get an opportunity to secure a filly that closely descends to a family touted as “the best female family in the USA” by FLR’s own Paul Willetts! A deep international pedigree with Dam Laurelling being the full sister to Group 1 winner MEDAALY and multiple Group 2 winner CHARNWOOD FOREST.
