Description

Kowhai is a NZ-bred 4YO mare by Sacred Falls from Chuffed (Savabeel).

She's a winner at Seymour over 2000m. Lightly raced with 12 starts.

Her most recent effort was a hard-fought 5th at Sandown where she was just swamped on the fence in the closing stages.

She's an attractive mare, standing approx. 15.2hh, and was a $110,000 Karaka purchase as a yearling. Kowhai tries hard in her races but has always found a couple just a bit better on the day.

From only 7 runners as a broodmare sire, Sacred Falls has produced three individual winners - two on the Savabeel/Zabeel cross.

Chuffed (by Savabeel), is an unraced 3/4 sister to Exuberant. Her granddam Glad, by Pins is a Stakes winner in NZ and the family goes back to Song of Norway (4th dam) - the dam of 11 winners including Scandinavia, who in turn produced Magnus, Wilander, Scandiva, Helsinge (dam of Black Caviar & All Too Hard) among others.

Also on the page is Hanseatic, Maximillius, Ole Kirk and Gimmie Par.

Kowhai is offered for genuine sale. All enquires and inspections are welcome.
