Description

Please see attached vet report

This September-born Lucky Vega Filly is the first foal out of the well-related FASTNET ROCK mare DANCEATHON.

This filly was bred purposefully on the incredible LOPE DE VEGA x FASTNET ROCK cross that has produced elite sprinters such as SANTA ANA LANE (x5 G1 winner) and GYTRASH (G1 Lightning Stakes winner). This mating boasts an impressive 9% Stakes winners to runners.

Over the Sydney Carnival, as Broodmare sire, FASTNET ROCK daughters have produced LADY OF CAMELOT (2024 Golden Slipper), ZOUGOTCHA (2024 G1 Queen of the Turf Stakes), JOLIESTAR (G2 Arrowfield Stakes) etc.

Lucky Vega Yearlings have sold well in their first auction series. From a modest service fee, they have sold upwards of $160,000, purchased by elite judges and trainers such as Griffiths De Kock, Clayton Douglas, Troy Corstens, Cliff Brown, Matt Laurie, Darby Racing, Prime Thoroughbreds, Gollan Racing, Bjorn Baker, and Annabel Neasham racing.
