Description
Smart, Versatile and well bred DROP THE VERSE is offered for sale as an exciting breeding prospect.
The daughter of GROUP ONE winning MERCHANT NAVY, has herself had multiple wins before been retired to the breeding barn.
Her Sire Merchant Navy, one of the success stories of stallion FASTNET ROCK went onto win over $2,000,000 on the track including dual Group One’s and has had immense success with his offspring including Group one Goodwood Winner Royal Merchant and Group Winning 2YO Steel City.
Drop The Verse is currently in foal to super impressive, not to mention exquisitely put together stallion “GRUNT”.
Grunt has also made a strong name for himself as a proven racehorse including an unforgettable Group ONE win in the Australian Guinea’s as well as the Makybe Diva Stakes.
On paper the breeding should produce a standout, with sensational pedigree’s on either side as well as being a proven winner herself.
Drop The Verse is a lovely character, has good conformation and has presented no issues either going in foal, nor retaining her foal and should go on to make an impressive broodmare with both this highly commercial foal due in 6 months, and those that hopefully follow.
