Description
CHINA STAR was a phenomenal race mare with 6x career wins including the G3 Manawatu Breeders Stakes in New Zealand and second in the G2 Cambridge JC Travis Stakes. Accumulating over $170,000 in prize money during her Kiwi racing career she has gone on to produce some quality progeny!
As a broodmare she has had two named foals, with her second foal EMPRESS TYCOON realising $270,000 as a yearling, selling to Peter Moody. This filly sadly passed away due to a recent stable accident. Her first foal by VANCOUVER is currently in training for owners Hirsch Racing and has had just the one trial to date.
CHINA STAR’s yearling filly by TORONADO sold this year at the Magic Millions Gold Coast making $110,000 and her current 2023 foal by WRITTEN BY is a cracking type and expected to sell well as a yearling in due course.
CHINA STAR’s family goes right back to prominent broodmare DIANA’S SECRET who is the dam of Horse of the Year in Australia and Champion Sprinter and Older Horse in Australia in that of DISSIDENT who won the G1 Randwick Guineas, the G1 All Aged Stakes, G1 Makybe Diva Stakes, the G1 Memsie and the G1 CF Orr amongst a plethora of G1 stakes placings.
CHINA STAR is NOT in foal this year, so an early mating decision and cover can be made by her new owners for the 2024 breeding season.
This mare is being offered as part of a major reduction in broodmare numbers.
