Description

**More photos to come **

Here is an exciting opportunity to secure a 2 in 1 package with a beautiful, strong broodmare that is throwing exceptional types so far in her breeding career to date following a successful racing career.

Graceful Gift is being offered for sale ready for an early cover this season, along with her exceptionally strong impressive 2022 weanling aged filly at foot by Bondi. Graceful Gift had only the one attempt of cover very late in the season (late November) and unfortunately missed, so it was decided to let her have a year off instead and have her ready for a early cover this season.

Graceful Gift is a multiple winner herself over 1460m and 1600m, by the Zabeel stallion Bryannbo's Gift and out of the winning Stravinsky mare, GRACEFUL SYMPHONY (NZ) (half sister to G1 winner LINKY DINK), bred by the late Sir Patrick Hogan and Lady Hogan.

Graceful Gift comes from a strong black type dam line that includes Listed winner and 2nd in G3 herself along with being a strong black type producer GIMMICK (NZ) and winner/black type producer COURT (NZ).

Her filly foal at foot is by Bondi, who is the Group 1 placed son of Champion Stallion Snitzel, with this filly only being his third crop. His first crop of foals are doing well on the track already with runners and winners as 2yos. Bondi himself was Group 1 placed in the Champagne Stakes at Randwick and also ran 2nd in the Gold Coast Magic Millions 3yo Guineas.

On the ground, Graceful Gift has a sensational yearling also by Bondi from his second crop that is being retained (full brother to the filly on offer as part of this package deal). This yearling was Graceful Gift's first foal.

Both Graceful Gift and the filly at foot are well mannered, easy to handle and do everything with. Graceful Gift has been seen to windsuck infrequently, however does not affect her weight/condition or require collar to control.

Only for sale as reducing numbers in preparation for the 2023 season youngstock arrival.
