Madame Bookworm is a very attractive and well conformed broodmare, standing at just over 16hh.
She has an excellent nature and is easy to do anything with.
Good feet, no past issues with them, no shoes.
She throws eye-catching foals and they have proven they can run too.
Keep Reading arguably should be stakes-placed having been unlucky on a couple of occasions when favoured in Listed Races last year. Nevertheless, the speedster has earned almost $300k and may yet obtain black-type for his dam at the upcoming Adelaide Carnival.
Star Club looks to be a very progressive type in Hong Kong. He has won 2 of his 7 races, including his most recent start in March which was very easy.
Even more exciting.... the unraced 3yo out of Madame Bookworm, named Chapters, is in training with Shane Nicholls and won two jump-outs ultra-impressively during March.... Watch this space!
In-foal to exciting young stallion COSMIC FORCE who has already sired 4 2yo winners out of his first crop to race. This includes LR Karaka Millions 2yo placegetter FULL FORCE, as well as Gr.3 Blue Diamond Prelude runner-up STAY FOCUSED who went on to run an eye-catching 5th in the Gr.1 Blue Diamond.
It will be very interesting to see how COSMIC FORCE goes when his progeny make their way to Hong Kong given how successful his sire DEEP FIELD was over there... With an Asian flavour already within the Madame Bookworm's pedigree, a foal by COSMIC FORCE is likely to attract attention from Hong Kong buyers and traders.
