One of Australia’s most talented racemares Mizzy will go under the hammer as an outstanding racing and breeding prospect at May’s Magic Millions National Broodmare Sale on the Gold Coast. |
Runner-up in yesterday’s Group One Coolmore Classic at Rosehill, Mizzy is in career best form and shapes as one of the most exciting prospects to go under the hammer in 2021. Prepared by leading Randwick trainer Anthony Cummings, Mizzy is a Group One runner-up at her past two starts, with a nose second to Savatiano at her previous run in the Canterbury Stakes. The Zoustar mare, a triple group winner, follows in the hoofsteps of her dam (Missy Cummings), second dam (Lady Knockout) and third dam (Prime Again) who were all stakes winners prior to a stud career. “She will present prospective buyers with an incredible opportunity,” breeder and part owner Rob Crabtree said. “Physically she is a stunning animal – as nice a mare as I’ve ever seen.” “I bred her, her mother and also raced her grandmother. She gets her speed from the Magnus and Zoustar blood, but also some stamina from Serheed (sire of grandam Lady Knockout).” “Mizzy is in career best form and her last three runs have been fantastic in Group Ones. In the Oakleigh Plate she got back from barrier 15 and was 12 wide on the turn and yet still managed to be beaten less than three lengths.” “Her last two seconds have been outstanding. Yesterday she again came from a wide draw and was right there at the finish.” Crabtree said the mare would continue to race until the National Sale and be an outstanding prospect to race for new connections before heading to stud. “The plan is to start her next in the Emancipation Stakes in a couple of weeks and then she will tell us where we go next.” “The National Sale is well timed for any buyers to look at the Tattersall’s Tiara – there’s so much upside. She will make a wonderful broodmare.” Mizzy will be one of the headline acts of what is shaping as a spectacular line up of fillies and mares forming the Newgate Consignment. “We are honoured to be entrusted to consign such a race offering as Mizzy,” Newgate’s Managing Director Henry Field said. “A superior racehorse in career best form.” “Phenomenally, her mother, grandmother and great grandmother were all, like her, very good racemares.” “Every inch of her makeup suggests she will also be a truly elite producer once her racing days are over,” Field added. “Mizzy is a prospect of the highest order and she joins a mouth watering list of race fillies and broodmares for the National Sale.” Magic Millions Bloodstock Manager Clint Donovan said. “We’d like to thank the owners for entrusting the sale of Mizzy with Magic Millions.” “We are pumped to be releasing the catalogue in the next few weeks,” Donovan added. The sale also includes a spectacular line up of fillies and mares who are part of the Shadwell Stud Australasia Unreserved Dispersal Sale. The 2021 Magic Millions Gold Coast National Sale will take place from May 20 to June 4. Entries for weanlings, race fillies, broodmares and yearlings close on March 19 and can be submitted online here. |
