Description
Playing game is an 11yo mare with an international page that offers breeders a great outcross to the majority of Australia's stallions due to her pedigree being Danehill free. She is out of a sister to stakes winner and winner of 10 races Morden, as well as the 8 time winner and dual Group 3 placegetter Quick Return.
An ultra consistent racemare in her day, Playing Game won 9 starts with 14 minor placings which included winning at Sydney metropolitan level over 1600m. A main stay on the Country Cup circuit, Playing Game claimed victory in the Narromine Cup, was runner up in the Mudgee XXXX Cup, as well as the Coonabarabran and Moree Cups and placed 3rd in the Dubbo Cup.
To date she has produced 3 foals but unfortunately lost her second foal after birth. Her first foal, a colt by Headwater, made $60,000 through the sale ring as a weanling and she has a yearling colt by Star Turn. So far in 2022, yearlings by Star Turn have sold up to $160,000 but progeny of the stallion have previously recorded sales up to $550,000 to leading stables such as Hawkes Racing indicating the top end of the market have a healthy respect for the horse.
Playing Game is currently not in foal but is being offered with a lovely colt at foot by up and coming young sire Divine Prophet. In his first 4 years at stud Divine Prophet has covered substantial books of mares and those numbers are now starting to make their way through to the track. A 33% strike rate of winners to runners has the son of Choisir on par with some of the leading sires in the country and he has already proved he can get top class runners, having produced SEE YOU IN HEAVEN, winner of the Group 3 Ottawa Stakes, as well as FORTUNATE KISS who finished 3rd in the Group 3 MRC Chairmans Stakes.
A filly by Divine Prophet realised some $50,000 at the yearling sales on the Gold Coast in January and he has previously had yearling stock reach $375,000 at sale in 2021.
