Description

This smart filly is bred in the purple being the daughter of Kentucky Derby winner Justify and Randwick Group winner Candelara. Justify is already the sire of 11 SWs with his first crop of 2yos in the USA & Australia, 6 of them Group or Graded SWs including brilliant Autumn star Learning To Fly and Adelaide Group winner Air Assault and currently leads the First Season Sire list by nearly $1m.

Dam Candelara, in addition to her Adrian Knox Stakes (Gr3) win for Bjorn Baker, followed up that success with a 3rd placing in the $1m Gr1 Australian Oaks, won by Gust of Wind with Candelara (who made all the pace) run down late by runner-up Winx, to take 3rd placing. Candelara is a half-sister to the dam of multiple SW Opal Ridge and is closely related to Gr1 winners Bel Mer, Clay Hero and Seamist.

Justify’s yearlings have sold up to $1,400,000 in 2023 and have averaged over $242,000 for 390 sold. This is an excellent pinhooking opportunity for a filly with outstanding potential.
