Description
More Than Ready broodmares are acknowledged as some of the best producers worldwide, and even more so if they are also stakes performers on the racetrack.
Opportunity presents with Ready Cuz, a proven Melbourne galloper who placed in the VRC Anzac Day Stakes (L) as a two-year-old and subsequently won at Cranbourne and placed at Flemington and Sandown.
Her sire, More Than Ready, claims 220 individual stakes winners and is the sire of the dams of such high class performers as Coolangatta, Bivouac, Forbidden Love, Shinzo and Aspen Grove.
Ready Cuz's dam, Familial, is a Moonee Valley-winning, stakes placed daughter of another phenomenal sire influence in Encosta de Lago and descends through daughters of Danehill and Marscay.
Ready Cuz is the dam of Flying Basil (9 wins including a victory at Sandown) and Jilladora (a last start winner in South Australia).
She has a yearling filly by Churchill purchased at 2023 Inglis Melbourne Premier by Australian Bloodstock/Kris Lees and a 2022 Tassort weanling filly coming through.
Ready Cuz missed to Earthlight (Ire) last year and is ready for an early service in 2023.
She stands at 15.3hh
