Purchased from Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sales for 80,000gns, this filly is from the wonderful Mrs Moss family which has been fabulously cultivated by Lady Bedford over the past fifty years. She is a half-sister to the remarkably tough and consistent FEEL GLORIOUS, who won six times in England and America, including four Stakes races. She was placed also placed in five separate Graded races during her career. What also excites us about her pedigree is that it is dominated by fillies who have the precocity to obtain Black-Type at two but continue to train on as three- and four-year-olds.

Acclamation is consistently one of the top sires in Europe over the years and has had another stellar year in 2024, through the likes of G1 Prix de l’Abbaye winner MAKAROVA.

This filly is bred on the same Acclamation/Medicean cross that has produced G2 winner ACCAKABA, G3 winner GARRUS and stakes winner DRUMFAD BAY… all from just nine foals of racing age bred on the cross. Therefore, a remarkable 33% stakes winners to foals of racing age bred on the cross. Furthermore, Hong Kong superstar ROMANTIC WARRIOR is also bred on very similar lines being by Acclamation out of a granddaughter of Machiavellian. With Medicean also being the broodmare sire of this year’s Irish Oaks winner, YOU GOT TO ME, we appear to have all the stats on our side going forward. The icing on the cake is that Acclamation with Green Desert as the second dam sire has also produced four Stakes performers from just 20 runners.

The filly was sold by Newsells Park, whose recent Alumni include YLANG YLANG, MOGUL, OTTERY etc. and who are widely regarded as one of the best nurseries in Europe.

Roger very much sees her as a two-year-old prospect, and he believes she could be Royal Ascot material on pedigree and physical. With this in mind, we are offering this filly as a 12-month syndicate, with the term running through to the end of the 2025 turf season. There will be one up-front cost to join, and this will cover all charges (purchase price, training fees, racing and travel expenses etc) for the 12-month term. We are offering 10 shares in this filly, at a cost of £14,750 per 1/10 share.
