Description

Heart To Heart won over 1200m at her 2nd start in her first prep in her 3yo year. She then stepped up in distance to place over 1500m and 1700m before niggly issues curtailed her career.

Heart To Heart is a compact mare standing 15:2HH, having good confirmation and is in proportion. She is strong boned and throws a very nice, strong foal. She is easy to handle whether being caught in a paddock, transport, drenching, farrier or vet work. She has been easy to get into foal, and is currently empty, ready for an early covering. She has had 5 to the races, for 2 winners, from 1200m to 1600m.

Her sire, TALE OF THE CAT (USA), is a stakes winner, a winner of 5 races to his credit. He is the sire of 107 Stakes winners (10 x G1) including GIO PONTI, STOPCHARGINGMARIA, TALE OF EKATI, GLAMOUR PUSS, etc. and the sire of the dams of 100 Stakes winners (8 x G1) including IT'S TRICKY, DORTMUND, AMAZING MARIA, SANENUS, SMASHING GLORY, SAILOR'S VALENTINE, DIAMOND TATHAGATA, etc.

Her dam Angel Heart (IRE) (by Sadler’s Wells (USA)) has had 4 to the races, all winners.

This is a family that nicks well with Danehill line stallions, the nick having produced over 20 stakes winners, with 2 at Group 1 level.
