2nd Nov 2024 UPDATE
This beautiful filly will commence trotting work on Monday 11th November in pre-training. We are looking forward to her progress. She recently paraded at our Open Day in Melbourne on the 27th October 2024, as you can see in the video below.
Information
This is one cracking filly by OLE KIRK purchased from the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale. This filly was acquired late in the sale at a bargain price and considered an absolute steal. The Filly is out of a DARCI BRAHMA mare, SUPER TROUPER, and is a lovely style of filly with plenty of substance about her. A lot of quality there. She was one of the highest rated lots that Blueblood’s purchased at the Inglis Classic Yearling Sale, a filly with a beautiful action.
Gerald Ryan & Stirling Alexiou will add their polish to this filly and as a result, they will give her the best chance to succeed at the track.
The filly is currently pre-training and is a few weeks away from heading into Gerld Ryan’s stables for her first preparation.
On purchase, our Filly passed 100% on her x-rays and clinical examination at the sale and was rated as low risk and suitable for syndication.
Comments: Trainer Gerald Ryan: Blueblood’s have bought a lovely filly by OLE KIRK, a first season stallion that I really have a wrap on. This is a really nice filly out of a good mare by DARCI BRAHMA, who has thrown a Sydney Saturday class winner. Good filly, moves well, well balanced, great colour, out of a good Stallion and proven mare. Do you want to have an interest that will race as 2yo?
