By Snitzel, one of the defining stallions of the modern era, this filly has the sort of pedigree that immediately stands out. His record speaks for itself, with 170 stakes winners and 110 Group winners, while horses like Marhoona, Redzel, Lady Shenandoah, Russian Revolution, Shamus Award, Wild Ruler and In The Congo show the level of class and consistency he continues to produce.

The page underneath is just as appealing. She is out of Amiche, a five-time winner by Nicconi, and this is her first foal. Amiche is a half-sister to Duais, a multiple Group 1 winner and one of the toughest mares of her generation. There is another nice angle here as well, with Nicconi’s daughters already leaving horses like Magic Time and King Kirk.

It is a very easy filly to like. Snitzel gives her that proven top-end Australian sire power, and the mare’s side brings toughness, depth and proper racetrack performance. She reads like the sort of filly who can win you the Slipper.
