Lot 51 – Miss Kiri x Master Of My Fate

“You will love her at first sight. I have loved her from the day she was born”

The Merry Widow sister a standout at NYS

Eugene Freeman’s Boland Stud has bred a really smart filly in the form of The Merry Widow, who recently picked up the third feature race win of her career when victorious in the Breeders’ Guineas Plate and she won’t stop here! The Merry Widow’s victories including both the Listed Perfect Promise Sprint and Listed East Cape Fillies Nursery, and she also finished close up in both the G3 Kenilworth Fillies Nursery and G2 The Debutante.

Boland Stud are thrilled to offer a Master Of My Fate half-sister to The Merry Widow at the 2017 National Yearling Sale (Lot 51). The Master Of My Fate filly (described by Eugene as magnificent) is out of Jallad matron Miss Kiri who has a 100% strike rate to date, with all four of her runners having won. The regally related Miss Kiri is a full-sister to former G1 Premier’s Champion Stakes winner Talahatchie and to Leading Dame (the dam of Singapore Champion Lizarre). Lizarre is a son of seven times champion sire Jet Master –the sire of lot 51’s sire, Master Of My Fate. Miss Kiri is also a full sister to Boston Tea Party, dam of G2 Betting World 1900 star and former G1 Vodacom Durban July favourite Solid Speed. Boston Tea Party is also dam of the Silvano colt who topped the 2016 National Two Year Old Sale, when he was knocked down to Form Bloodstock for R2.1 million.

Master Of My Fate, sire of lot 51, was a top class athlete who won six of just eight outings including the G2 Premier Trophy and G2 Peninsula Handicap. The handsome bay son of champions Jet Master and Promisefrommyheart previously made waves at the 2011 National Sale (he was the top colt sold off that sale) –and now bids to do so once again with his first yearlings in 2017!

This filly’s maternal grandsire, former champion SA sire Jallad, is a top class broodmare sire, with his daughters having produced the likes of G1 J&B Met winner Martial Eagle, Dubai Gr.1 winner Shea Shea and Gr.1 Cape Guineas winner Solo Traveller. Jallad is also dam sire of the impressive recent Gr.1 Investec Cape Derby winner It’s My Turn.

“Some dreams can be bought – buy this filly and the world is your oyster”
