Description

A powerfully built 3-year-old daughter of VANCOUVER, showcasing good size (approx. 16.1) and substance, hailing from a full sister to Group 1 winner AWESOME ROCK by FASTNET ROCK.

This quality type was a $100,000 Magic Millions Gold Coast yearling, offering both racing and breeding potential.

She presents as a sound racing proposition with a strong pedigree and is poised to make a lovely broodmare.

Despite mixed race form of late, she has had genuine excuses, including tempo, very firm tracks, and gear changes.

Her recent trial wins and a very strong maiden win demonstrate her capability. Notably, her two-year-old trial form was impressive, winning two Flemington trials and being featured on Racing.com’s "Trial Files."

The owners are only selling to dissolve a partnership. Don’t miss the chance to acquire this exceptional filly.
