sands of mali x Alabama Monroe

We kicked things off at the Tattersalls Ireland yearling sale with this Sand of Mali filly purchased for €45,000 from Ballyhane Stud. She's an excellent mover who looks like a colt she is that strong, there was no way we were leaving the sale without her!

Karl saw the horse twice and absolutely loved her, he's taken a leg which will not be a common occurrence this season. He is the leading 2yo trainer and he's a long list of owners willing to send him horses! At the time of writing, just one NBR 2yo based at Spigot lodge is yet to win and she will be winning soon!

The filly qualifies for the IRE incentive which rewards owners with a €10,000 prize should we win a qualifying race, we have won 5 in 2023 and are one of the leading owners supporting the scheme.

Sands Of Mali, the winner of the Gimcrack at 2 as well as the Sandy Lane & Champion Sprint Stakes as a 3yo is a first season sire who's early products have tremendous physical attributes, he was all speed and that's exactly how this filly checks out..

The dam, Alabama Monroe, a daughter of Cape Cross has produced one horse to make the date to date, who has an OR of 84 after a wide margin maiden win at Gowran.
