Description

Beautiful So You Think Mare - 3 wins 1200m to 1400m. 2nd in the Listed Team Weallean's Tauranga Classic.

So Gorgeous is a big, strong type of mare that is correct in every way.

Not only is she by the leading sire So You Think, but her 2nd dam is ALACRITY, (by Grosvenor) Champion 3YO filly in Australasia in 1995-96 / NZ Filly of the Year. This makes also her a very exciting future breeding prospect.

So Gorgeous is currently in work with Mike Moroney & Pam Gerard at Ballymore Stables in Matamata, NZ. The stable has high hopes for this mare this season, as with maturity she is looking for more distance. As one of the co-owners is leaving the syndicate, this lightly raced 6yr old mare is being offered for sale as a racing proposition or broodmare.
