Description

A young two-time winning Tavistock mare, whose promising race career was cut short by injury.

She hails from a progressive NZ family.

Her older half sister, What’s New, was the champion four year old of 2019 in Singapore, and her yearling Exceedance half

sister sold for $250k at this year’s Magic Millions yearling sale. This filly is earmarked to be trained by Chris Waller.

Desert Realm’s sire, Tavistock, is building an enviable broodmare sire record, with six Group winners from just 50 runners, including dual

Doncaster winner, Mr Brightside, and a 60% winners to runners ratio.

She is in foal to Headwater after foaling down an attractive All Too Hard filly last Spring.

Desert Realm is part of a breeding stock reduction sale.
