CATURRA X PROFESSIONAL WIDOW

  “We didn’t buy the price tag — we bought the horse.” 

 We’ve secured this striking grey CATURRA filly for just 10,000gns at the Tattersalls Somerville yearling sale, a sale we enjoy coming to and more importantly, we have a good record when buying from. Making Dreams was a G3 winner bought at this sale for just 33,000gns with Woodcote winner, Teej A costing 50,00gns.

Physically, she was the one of the best physical ratings of all fillies listed in this sale, whilst Nick went on to add that she was the best looking filly he has seen by Caturra.

Tim Easterby loved her just as much as we did, taking a 50% share in her based on his valuation of the filly, believing we stole her at the price! The market was heavily in our favour away from the fashionable stallions, with only the breeze up boys in town which meant the commerically bred yearlings made a premium whilst the remainder never got near to their real market value.

We fully expect this sharp, athletic filly to be on the track early in the season and that gives her every chance of landing some early Great British bonuses in restricted races at tracks like Beverley and Musselburgh.

🏇 Out of PROFESSIONAL WIDOW, a tough two-time winner who was rated in the 80s and competed at Royal Ascot.

💰 Bought from the Tattersalls Somerville Sale, meaning she comes with eligibility for the hugely valuable Somerville and October Auction Stakes programmes.

💴 100% GBB registered, a fantastic incentive for owners especially in restricted races in the north.

🎯 And at only 10,000gns, her purchase price could potentially make races such as the Weatherbys Super Sprint on our agenda given she would carry bottom weight!
