Description
Midnights is a 3YO filly by Pierro out of the 4-time winning O’Reilly mare, Swift Lady, who is a half-sister to Group 2 winner Sweet Leader. She is closely related to Group 3 winner and multiple Group 1 placegetter Swiftsynd who is the dam of 11 foals to race for 9 winners including multiple Group 2 winner and Group 1 placegetter La Zagaletta.
Midnights is an unraced 2022 Inglis Easter graduate. Radiographs taken on 29th March 2023 revealed she had sclerosis and lysis of her third carpal bone of the near fore knee which required 3 months in the paddock. She returned to full training and on the 7th November radiographs revealed the same issue was present and a 6 week spell was recommended. She was given the all clear to return to full training and on 26th March she pull up lame in the near fore after a gallop. Radiographs taken revealed severe sclerosis of the radial facet of the third carpal bone with moderate to severe lytic change. The degree of sclerosis had progressed significantly since she was last radiographed (report dated 29th of March 2023). There was also lytic change to the distal dorsomedial aspect of the radial carpal bone. It’s been recommended to retire Midnights from racing and as a result she is being offered as a broodmare prospect.
Please contact Emma Coleman (ecoleman@gaiwaterhouse.com.au) if you would like to inspect her at Evergreen Stud or carry out your own vet inspection.
