Description

Lightly raced at two League of Nations, a $700,000 Easter Yearling Purchase, ran a close second to eventual Moonee Valley stakes winner Overshare in just his second start. At three, League of Nations has never been out of the top four.

League of Nations is by leading global sire, Medaglia D’Oro sire of 17 Group 1 winners worldwide including Golden Slipper winner Vancouver and Golden Rose winner Astern. A sire of racehorses, Medaglia D’Oro has over 60% winners to runners, 10% stakes winners to runners and 5% group stakes winners to runners in the Southern Hemisphere.

Out of a winning Charge Forward mare, the same broodmare sire that produced 2017 Golden Slipper winner She Will Reign, League of Nations hails from a family that has consistently produced group stakes winners in Australia, South Africa, Ireland, and England.

League of Nations is a metropolitan level horse that is knocking on the door to become a Sydney metropolitan winner.
