Description
MITHILA 2007
Encosta de Lago – Twyla (Danehill)
Mithila ticks so many boxes for a breeder. She is by sought after broodmare sire Encosta de Lago, and descends from “thoroughbred royalty” in the blue hen mares Dancing Show and her granddam Best in Show. Dancing Show features in Australian G1 winners Shoals, Hurricane Sky, Tom Kitten, Al Maher, Manhattan Rain and Champion sire Redoute’s Choice.
Mithila is the dam of G3 winner Madam Legend, sold at Inglis Chairman’s Sale for $900,000.
Mithila is a very attractive mare and has produced quality foals. Sadly, her 2024 filly by Stronger (Not a Single Doubt) died from colic in March 2025.
Mithila is in foal (LDS 15.10.24) to “sire of the moment” and champion UK sprinter HARRY ANGEL, sire of G1 winners Private Harry ATC Galaxy G1 and Tom Kitten All-Star Mile G1, Champion Stks G1, Up & Coming Stks G3, Fernhill Hcp LR.
The resultant progeny will be a close relation to Tom Kitten (Harry Angel).
