Description

*BALTIC AMBER - a 3 x winning daughter of top class stallion CHOISIR, sire of 12 Group 1 winners; out of an ENCOSTA DE LAGO mare (Choisir’s most successful cross with 6 stakes winners inc Gr1 W JAPONISME). Enchanted Melody has produced 2 winners from only 3 to race to date - with the third foal being a promising 2yo who has already placed and competed at Group level in New Zealand.

*PHYSICALLY - A very attractive, well built & roomy type of mare. She stands at 15"3 hh, has great muscle definition, strong hindquarter, deep girth, good mover, good bone and a lovely nature.

*ON THE TRACK - Only lightly raced, she often got back in her runs as she matured therefore finding some bad luck in running yet she showed good natural ability and a great turn of foot to score 3 wins from only 13 starts, as most evident in her Warrnambool win at BM64 grade (see link to video here – https://vimeo.com/280482160). Recently she unfortunately succumbed to a tendon injury which requires a period of rest and rehabilitation if to return to training (prognosis to recover is good). Being a rising 5yo mare however, owners have decided to now sell as a breeding prospect. *VET REPORT AVAILABLE ON REQUEST *INSPECTIONS WELCOME

*PEDIGREE - Out of the Encosta De Lago mare Enchanted Melody who has produced only the 3 to race for 2 winners - her latest on the track only a young 2yo colt in New Zealand by Epaulette who has shown good ability being placed and competitive at Group level from only 4 starts. Her weanling foal this year was sold for $55k by International Group 1 First Season Sire CHARM SPIRIT.

*Second dam is Stakes Performed FLYING DANSINO who has produced 3 winners inc Stakes Performed SNAKE CHARMER and is a half-sister to Multiple Stake Performed, Gr 1 placed ZAGREB and being by Stakes Winner DANSINO, she is then from the family of Group winners LEICA SMILE and MOON DRAGON.

*CHOISIR as a Broodmare sire has produced 69 winners at a 44.8% Rnrs:wnrs strike rate. He has also produced multiple Stakes Winner & this season's Group 1 Myer Classic runner-up ECKSTEIN (by I Am Invincible).

*A nice, young maiden mare prospect who was lightly raced. From a good winning family with black-type in the pedigree and potential to upgrade. She’ll make a lovely addition to any broodmare band and First Season Sires heading into Spring.
