Description
The sale of Joyous Legend is an outstanding opportunity to invest in a magnificent Group-performed 3yo filly who has already displayed outstanding ability on the race track. A winner on debut, she finished 3rd beaten just 0.8L by multiple G2 winner Jamaea in the G2 Percy Sykes Stakes over 1200m atl Randwick. Those in arrears on that occasion included subsequent G1 Thousand Guineas winner Yearning.
Joyous Legend also ran a great race in the G2 Reisling Slipper Trial, beaten just 3.2L. The successful buyer can take her back to the races or send her to stud this season.
