Description
Msongari presents an opportunity to purchase a broodmare that would be an asset to any stud farm. She is a mare from a family that oozes black type.
A lovely big roomy mare, good bone and correct conformation. Easy to deal with in all aspects. 16.1hh and 602kg.
Msongari is by Show A Heart who as broodmare sire has a record of 68.6% winners to runners and some 20 stakes winners. She is out of the Champion NZ 2yo of her season, Flying Babe, who won 6 races as a 2yo. She also won 5 stakes races and was Gr1 placed!! Flying Babe had 10 named foals, all which raced for 8 winners, including the stakes performers Biggin Hill and Two Over One (raced as Wingold in HK) and the multiple winners Manrico (11 wins) and Azincourt (7 wins).
Msongari herself won 3 races and had 10 placings from 20 starts. At stud she has had 4 to race for three winners including Kenyon Wonder (6 wins) and Starsongari (5 wins). She also has a 2yo filly with Gary Portelli by Written By, the sire of the very exciting Straight Charge, winner of the Silver Slipper Gr2 and second in the Todman Stakes Gr2 (to Switzerland), before finishing close up in the Golden Slipper AND the high quality $1m stakes earning 3yo in Perth – Ripcord.
Msongari had an eye catching Hellbent colt born in October 2023 and missed on a single November cover, so is ready to go to the stallion of choice for the 2024 season.
She forms part of the unreserved reduction sale for the stud as we wind back our numbers.
She comes with a free nomination to Safeguard for the 2024 breeding season.
Inspections welcome by appointment.
