Description
Race now, breed later!
Dios presents an exciting opportunity to race a dual winning mare currently in work, with the peace of mind she already has a secure position as a commercial broodmare when she retires. Lightly raced, Dios has won twice and placed second 4 times in her 13 career starts (including a win and 2 seconds in this prep).
A pedigree littered with Stakes winners, her 1/2 brother TENTYRIS is a 2YO Stakes winner this year, following that performance with a 2nd in the G1 Blue Diamond Stakes, beating home 2YO Stakes winners THE PLAYWRIGHT, TYCOON STAR, MY GLADIOLA etc. He is accepted to run in the G2 Todman Stakes on Saturday 7/3 and looks a very strong prospect in many of the 2YO Stakes races this season.
Her dam, Deity has a yearling filly by BLUE POINT with Godolphin and she is in foal to ANAMOE.
Her grandam DIVINE MADONNA, a four time G1 winner was one of the best mares of her generation, also produced Stakes winner MATERNAL and dual Stakes performer La Pieta. Other recent Stakes winners that have come from this family include G1 Australian Oaks winner AUTUMN ANGEL and G2 Ian McEwan Stakes winner BARAQIEL.
Her sire Lonhro needs no introduction as a broodmare sire, siring the dams of 70 Stakes winners including G1 winners GATTING, GOLDEN MILE, ZAPATEO and HERE TO SHOCK. Lonhro mares currently perform at over 5% Stakes winners to runners, better than Encosta De Lago, I Am Invincible, Snitzel etc.
