The second foal of a mare by Champion Sire Fastnet Rock, the filly carries a Danehill cross on the dam-side of Capitalist and as the sire of Fastnet Rock.

“We had a really good Capitalist horse in the stable, Sneaky Shark, who finished second in the Karaka Million 2YO when we won it with On the Bubbles,” said Ellis.

“She is a filly with plenty of natural substance and we regarded her as a really good value purchase.”
