She's by a proven Group 1 sire in Territories, whose offspring include Lazzat, Regional, Rougir and Derby runner-up Hoo Ya Mal.

She's out of a Nathaniel mare, giving her considerably more stamina underneath than many Premier Sale fillies, while the second dam is by Shamardal.

Most importantly, the close family has already produced Mild Illusion, a Listed-winning two-year-old rated 90, so there is genuine juvenile quality there rather than simply a staying pedigree. We know the family well under the second dam with our very own Teej A coming out of Mild Illusion, she was a smart filly who won the Woodcote stakes and was unlucky not to pick up blacktype. She has been followed by Pershaada who won the Molecombe stakes and will be making the trip to the breeders cup later this year.

She goes to Marco Botti, who has had another good spell with his two-year-olds, with horses such as Royal Instinct, Fire Thunder and Zephyra running particularly well recently, following on from the progressive Colori Forever last year.

Being 100% GBB registered gives us a very clear race-planning strategy: initially look hard at GBB fillies-only races, and if her ability and mark allow it, work towards a mile nursery qualifying for GBB+ later in her two-year-old season.

For a £26,000 yearling, a programme offering potential bonuses running into tens of thousands of pounds per win is exactly the sort of opportunity you want to exploit.

Pedigree-wise, I'd see her as more of a 7f–1m juvenile than an early 5f horse, with every chance that a mile becomes her optimum as the year progresses. And if she does win one of those mile GBB+ races, the £26,000 could end up looking particularly good business.

Again, like our other purchases at this sale, she's been purchased with a view to picking up a £25,000 bonus that Goffs are now offering in the UK similiar to that of the Orby bonuses, which we won three of in 2025, more than any other UK owner.

Following on from that, she has also been entered in the Harry's Half Million which offers £15,000 down to tenth place in late August on the Knavesmire.
