Breeding CertificateDescription
A beautiful daughter of The Champion sire Written Tycoon out of the Encosta De Lago mare Factory of Safety . She is a lovely put together mare, very athletic and possessing great strength also.
Her pedigree is littered with black type champions on both sides of her lineage giving you great confidence that Playing It Safe will get every opportunity to produce great foals when the time comes to enter the next phase of her career.
She has shown great ability in her short career having never reached her full potential with a few minor issues curtailing her racetrack efforts. She has a minor tendon strain now and could go on to race if you were willing to do the rehabilitation. Only a couple of starts back she ran a real eyecatcher behind the boom horse in Globe and was very unlucky not to win at Moonee Valley back in February of this year, either way if you choose to race or breed she will be an asset and looks a beautiful mare going forward.
