Description
Group 1 performer in foal to Group1 2 year old winner Captivant.
Stakes Placed Perfect Rhyme had 2 wins at 1400m and 1600m. She finished 2nd in the G1 Australian Oaks over 2400m at Randwick behind star filly Bonneval, defeating quality fillies like Lasqueti Spirit, Nurse Kitchen and Lubiton. She was beaten just 0.5 of a length when finishing second to Zanbagh in the G3 Tibbie Stakes over 1400m as an older mare. She amassed $365,735 in prizemoney over her five-year racing career.
By G1 winner Poets Voice (GB), Poets Voice is a son of the great Dubawi (IRE) siring 18 first crop winners including three Stakes winners. Poets Voice (GB) is the broodmare sire of 193 runners, 86 winners and 3 Stakes winners.
Perfect Rhyme (AUS) is the dam of three live foals, Exceed Perfection 2020 (Gelding by Exceed and Excel) a winner at 1200m in 2023-24. Pratibha 2022 (filly by Prague) and a weanling Colt by Captivant still to run for connections. Perfect Rhyme is being sold in foal to Captivant. This is the same cross responsible for 6-time winner Tiger Shark (AUS) and stakes placed Veecee (AUS).
Captivant is by Written Tycoon’s best son Capitalist and was himself a $550,000 yearling when purchased by CHC, Newgate and Starlight Racing. His first crop yearlings sold up to $ 340,000 at the Inglis Easter Sale. Captivant was sharp enough to win a Victory Vein over 1000m pre-Christmas, superior enough to be a Group 1 Champagne Stakes winning two-year-old, and classy enough to fight out a Caulfield Guineas with subsequent 9-time Group 1 winner Anamoe.
