By the champion Irish miler Falbrav who only shuttled to Australia for a few seasons, Falarion has the powerful Sunday Silence breed on her dam's side and her older half-sisters were multiple winners in Japan. Her younger half-sister is unbeaten and Team Snowden has a high opinion of her. Only seven years old, 15.3-hand Falarion was a winner at 1400m on a cup day program and placed on three occasions from only about 20 starts. Always sound, she was given time to mature due to her mile to middle-distance pedigree but raced without luck many times - including losing her rider at the gates and also bombing the start in a false-start race. Trialled well at Scone in a fast heat in March but copped a bad stone bruise so was treated and spelled. Wanted to continue racing but other part-owners have bought another horse. Still a racing proposition with country prizemoney so good but now seven and ready to breed.
