This brilliant filly was our absolute ‘MUST BUY’ yearling at Magic Millions. She is by HOME AFFAIRS, the fastest son of I AM INVINCIBLE and one of the most exciting first-season sires in the country. A top-class Group 2-winning 2YO sprinter, he was also exceptional at 3, claiming prestigious Group 1 victories in the Coolmore Stud Stakes and the Group 1 Lightning Stakes at Flemington. Home Affairs made headlines as the sire of the highest-priced yearling ever sold at this sale, fetching $3.2 million on day four.

This filly is the third foal out of her dam, CHAMPAGNE CUDDLES, a multiple Group-winning NOT A SINGLE DOUBT mare who was sold as a broodmare for an impressive $2 million. Her second dam, SKY CUDDLE, was a Group 1 winner, further solidifying this filly’s exceptional pedigree. Her first foal, the 2YO filly Bottle Of Shells, is trained by Gai and Adrian and she has already shown great natural ability.

Beyond her remarkable pedigree, this sharp, flashy filly, a twin to her mother, earned Gai’s highest grade. With her deep girth, balanced walk, and strong hindquarters, she quickly won us over.
