FULLY SYNDICATED

This filly was purchased by Nick, Jessica Harrington and Patrick Cooper of BBA Ireland on 1st October 2020 for £60,000.

Our  new recruit is a strong good moving daughter of sire sensation Lope de  Vega. The Goffs Orby Sale had a mixed bag of fillies in the sale this  year and Nick ended up with a shortlist of 53 fillies from just over 200  viewed. Of the 53 that remained on the shortlist this filly was  definitely in the top 20 physicals and probably around 10th to 15th in  the entire catalogue of fillies.

Our  filly has a great hip with a powerful action and very much looks and  moves like a colt. She very much looks like her sire with the typical  Lope de Vega head but she has a sprinter's hip and based on looks and  pedigree we would expect her to be starting off over 6 furlongs in  May/June and as she matures making up into a 7-8 furlong horse.

Looking  at the pedigree of this filly she is by the high-class stallion Lope de  Vega who has had 10 Stakes winners in 2020 alone in Europe, behind only  Galileo and Dubawi.

Lope  de Vega excels with his fillies on the track both as 2yos and as 3yos.  In recent years he has had the likes of Newspaperofrecord, Manuela de  Vega, Capla Temptress, Feliciana de Vega and Antonia de Vega who are all  Stakes winners.

Jessica  knows all about training the progeny of Lope de Vega with horses like  Cadillac (Group 2 winner) and Lucky Vega (Group 1 winner) who were both  bought at the Goffs Orby Sale in 2019 by Jessica and her team.

She  is the first filly Nick has had in training with Jessica, Nick has been  following Jessica's runners in recent years and in 2020 her level of  success has rose again.

Plan  A will be for this filly to be winning a Maiden and then we will be  looking to compete in the Stakes races in Ireland next Summer.
