Description

Taormina Match- By leading stallion Nicconi, who currently sits 3rd on the General Sires table with earnings just shy of $16M, this mare represents a great opportunity for the astute breeder. From the famed SNOWTOP family that includes Stakes Winners SNOWLAND (Gr.1), PORTILLO (Gr2 x 2), GHISONI (Gr.2), and successful sire SNIPPETSON (L), this dual purpose mare gives you the chance to experience success on the race track, before retiring her to the breeding barn. With NICCONI being a dual Gr.1 winner himself, and the sire of Champion Sprinter NATURE STRIP (8 x Gr.1), amongst his 24 x Stakes Winners, this is a great opportunity for someone to acquire this filly and ensure she has a successful career both on and off the track.

As you will see from her race replays, Taormina Match is a fast young mare. She is paid up for the MMs race series and QTIS.
