Description
Night Melody is a beautifully bred mare being a ½ to two stakes horses and from a NZ family littered with blacktype. A talented staying mare, she won her maiden in Victoria before sustaining suspensory ligament injury in trackwork last week. The owners have decided to dissolve the partnership.
She presents as a wonderful breeding proposition. She is a stunning looking mare, a good size, roomy and well conformed. She stands 16 hands and is sure to throw lovely foals.
From the Stravinsky mare The Nightingale, who has done a brilliant job at stud producing the outstanding performer “Infantry”, Singapore Horse of the Year and his stakes-performed full sister Night Nurse. She has had another four winners with plenty of upside in the pedigree thanks to the likes of Sing For Peace (The Nightingale - Tavistock), Midnight Brawler, Sweet Hunter.
Cam and Eva Herons weanling filly by Tarzino out of Nightingale Island, the Nightingale's daughter, sold for $150,000 as a weanling at Karaka to Phil Cataldo for a Victorian client
