Simple Choice - Breeding Certificate 17/03/20
Description
By Champion sire Snitzel (AUS) out of a mare by Champion sire Zabeel (NZ).
Simple Choice started just 15 times for 3 wins including at metropolitan level at Moonee Valley and is a 3/4 sister to winner Euterpe who has produced 2-time winner Coronel.
After spending 4 years overseas Simple Choice returned to Australia from New Zealand mid-October last year resulting in a delay to her covering date and she came up negative to Akeed Mofeed (GB).
She was an easy breeder for 4 consecutive years though so we have little doubt after a season off she will be good to go again. She produces lovely strong types as you can see by the attached photos.
A major plus here is her owner has retained all of her Bullbars (AUS) progeny to race and they will be split among Mick Price at Caulfield and Andrew Noblet at Ballarat so she will have every chance to get a good one on her record.
Genuine sale due to owner reducing numbers.
