A FILLY TO TARGET THE FIRST 2YO RACE OF THE YEAR WITH, TIME TO
RETURN TO THE SCENE, OF OUR GROUP 3 WINNING 2YO SUCCESS

PINATUBO x MY PLEASURE
If you’re looking for an early running 2yo, this is the FILLY for YOU. She's bred to run fast and has a family full of stakes winners including SEPALS who is a Group 1 earner with $2.7million in the bank.

She is at breakers now, and the reports are extremely glowing. She is taking everything in her stride and is faultless and she will be aimed at the early 2YO races like the Maribyrnong Plate, Blue Diamond Stakes and many more.

Donalds Racing Bloodstock agent Todd Hughes notes are as follows: “She looks a real early pre-Xmas runner, and her sire is just starting to make a splash on the racetracks here in Australia. Given PINATUBO’S success as an unbeaten Champion Two-Year-Old and his progeny like ZAMBALES contesting G1 level. The time is now to buy them while they are affordable. She is compact, athletic and forward going with a nice shoulder and strong hindquarter. “

She was selected in conjunction– Troy/Leon Corstens & Will Larkin from the Inglis Classic Sale. Malua Racing are all about success and feeling that “winning feeling”. Malua Racing have purchased and selected over 10 individual Group 1 winners such as STARSPANDGLEDBANNER who was a 4 x G1 winner with 2 of those G1’S international at Royal Ascot.

" I'm really happy to be able to train this filly. This farm can breed a Stakes winner, and she is from the family of SEPALS. A real speed on speed family. You will not be able to buy from the sire next season" - Troy Corstens - Malua Racing 



This is a classy filly with a big pedigree page, making her closely related to the GROUP PERFORMER in SEPALS. She is very forward and athletic, we inspected her multiple times, and she never turned a hair at the yearling sales. She presented with all the things you look for in a natural running early 2YO.

THE SIRE – PINATUBO “HORSE OF THE YEAR AND A CHAMPION 2YO”
Pinatubo is a two-year-old world champion by outstanding sire SHARMADAL, bred and raced by Godolphin. He was one of the most dominant juveniles seen in recent decades, winning six races as a two-year-old including the Group 1 National Stakes and Dewhurst Stakes. His performances earned a Time form rating of 134, the highest for a two-year-old since FRANKEL. PINATUBO currently stands for $38,500 at Darley. PINATUBO has thrown plenty of early running 2YO’s in his first season in Australia with the likes of ZAMBALES, who was unlucky not to win the Sires Produce stakes at GROUP 2 LEVEL placing second. ZAMBALES has also contested 4 x Group 1 races in just his first 7 starts.

THE DAM – MY PLEASURE
