Mark Walker  comments about this Filly “This lovely Grey Filly is well grown, very athletic, looks to be a genuine Staying type – an Oaks type filly for sure – her pedigree page matches her type, being by the veteran Sire of so many good stayers, Reliable Man and out of an Encosta De Lago mare who won 4 times in Australia up to 2400m – this girl is bred to stay and is superb value at the price we got her for. I can’t wait to get her into my Stable”
