Description
Forever Strong is an unraced 2yo filly by the unbeaten 2yo and dual Gr.1 winning 3yo, MERCHANT NAVY. Trained by Clayton Douglas and bred by leading farm Rosemont Stud, Forever Strong has been very well educated through the Rosemont racing system.
Forever Strong is out of the well related OCEAN PARK mare, Bombshell Babe who is half-sister to two stakes winners RIMRAAM and SWEYNESSE. Both horses Group 3 winners and Group 1 placed.
Forever Strong would suit an owner looking to race in a lesser racing jurisdiction, as she has not proven herself good enough to be competitive at metro level which is the minimum requirement for her breeder/owners Rosemont Stud.
Forever Strong is currently out for a spell and is fit and sound. Approx 16.1hh
