Description
Here is your opportunity to purchase an attractive young mare by Headwater. Head Above showed above average ability early in her career, winning her maiden in good style. However, she became very frustrating for her owners when she began to "tie up" post work. Her overall race record stands at 11 starts, 1 win and 3 placings. She has now retired after sustaining a tendon injury. She is paddock sound and showing no sign of pain resulting from the tendon strain.
Head Above comes from a strong black type, American family featuring many exceptional Group winning horses. Her dam Nandi is by the outstanding broodmare sire in Dynaformer. Nandi has produced 3 winners including Indigenous Star who was a 6 time winner in Hong Kong.
Head Above stands at approximately 16 hhs. She has a beautiful sloping shoulder and moves very well. She is an elegant individual with a beautiful head and kind eye. she will make a fine addition to any broodmare portfolio.
