Description
This is the fifth foal out of Beautiful Buns, a winner of the GroUp 3 Vamos Stakes race. She is by one of the best performed stallions to stand in Australia, Highland Reel.
An unbelievable racehorse by Galileo, he won 7 Group 1's on 4 continents, ranging in distance from 1408M to 2414M, racing 21 of his 26 starts at Group 1 level in Ireland, Britain, France, the United States, Australia, Hong Kong and Dubai. His 7 Group 1 victories include - Secretariat Stakes, Hong Kong Vase (twice), King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes, Breeders' Cup Turf, Coronation Cup and Prince of Wales's Stakes. He was also placed in the Prix du Jockey Club, Cox Plate, International Stakes, Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe and Champion Stakes. He holds the record for the greatest amount of prize money earned by a racehorse trained in Europe.
This beautiful yearling filly looks to carry the traits of her sire Galileo with a nice balanced conformation. As you can see in the photos and videos, she has plenty of quality about her, with good size and scope. She has nice shoulders, a lovely barrel and a big strong chest natural. She is a tall filly that covers a lot of ground in her strides. She has a great temperament and has a lovely nature to her. She is a very well put together thoroughbred and will develop into a very nice racing prospect.
A great opportunity to own a Highland Reel filly with plenty of upside.
Her half brother by Real Impact was purchased for $300,000 in 2019 NZ Ready to Run sale with 10th fastest breeze-up time
