She is out of a winning UMATILLA, mare who had 2 to race both winners.
From the Listed family of PRANKSTER.
A 3-time winner between 1200 – 1800m and $40,595 in prize money.
Talk Of The Town sustained a grade 2 tear of the off fore tendon in August 2019 and has had 9 months in the paddock. The owners are not interested in breeding with this mare so she is being sold unreserved ready for this years stud season.
Talk of the town had her tendon re scanned on the 19.5.20 and requires another 3 months in the paddock if you wanted to consider racing her again.
She stands at approx 16hh , has a great temperament and easy to do anything with.
