Description

Group 1 winning mare whom is producer of a multiple stakes winner of $1.5m+ and is a consistent producer of winners. Plus she still has a WRITTEN TYCOON and a SHAMUS AWARD to come.

SPECIAL MISSION's last yearling to sell made $180,000 at Melbourne Premier in 2022..

Her sale is a continuation of the progressive downsizing we have taken since selling our farm. She is an incredibly kind mare and is very easy to handle. She does very occasionally wind suck.. It is however not a trait she passes on to her foals. She is a good breeder whom has never had a slip or an unplanned missed season. She got in foal on her last pregnancy on first cover to SHAMUS AWARD (regrettably she had spent the bulk of the season prior to that being served by another stallion that was just not working out for her).

She was not served last season due to her delivering a late November foal. She has been double rugged and under lights (Equilume) since late June to be ready for an early cover.

She is up to date with dental, farrier and worming treatments. Inspections and/or vet checks welcome - by appointment.
