Description

4yo Maiden mare by National Defense out of the multiple winning Casino Prince Mare, 'As I Do'.

She displayed promise in the three runs in her first racing preparation without much luck but for some reason she hasn't been able to recapture that form this time around.

She had a fractured rib as a three year old but after adequate time and rehabilitation she has displayed no ill effects of this injury since.

Offered unreserved, she is race fit and ready for a change of scenery that we hope can spark her interests and she can return to the form she showed us early on which was certianly capable of winning races.

This mare has some residual value post racing as her mother, As I Do, has a 3yo Toronado filly, a 2yo Admire Mars colt and has been served by Shalaa and Castlevecchio over the past two seasons.

Her Grandam, She Will Be Loved' was the winner of the Group 2 Edward Manifold.

Note that she has been seen to windsuck.

Please feel free to contact Chris (0400588660) or David (0412480816) for more information.
