Description

LATIN AFFAIR is a daughter of one of Australia's most popular stallions, NICCONI, out of a Falbrav mare CHANCE LIAISON.

Chance Liaison is a half-sister to the dam of GRAND PRIX BOSS, Champion 2yo colt in Japan in 2010.

A $60,000 yearling purchase, Latin Affair in a nice sprinting type with a good body and great attitude. She is very easy to deal with.

Daughters of NICCONI have only produced 15 runners to date. Being free of Danehill and a proven sire with an excellent winning strike rate, he could quietly build a nice record as a broodmare sire.

Latin Affair presents a nice opportunity for a breeder on a budget, perhaps with a breed-to-race plan in mind.
