*** UPDATE 17/01/05: Same cross as super impressive Flemington winner today , Choose , who commenced her career by winning her 1st three. By Starcraft from Redoute's Choice mare ***


FROM A REDOUTE'S CHOICE MARE , AS IS ZOUSTAR , then from a RAINBOW QUEST mare , then a English Derby & Oaks winning STORM BIRD mare , then from an AFFIRMED mare , little wonder the full sister was acquired by some very influential owners .


STARCRAFT over REDOUTE's has produced several good winners , including CHOOSE winner of 1st 3 starts. Starcraft has crossed well with international families , as is the case with this filly.


STARCRAFT had a good recent Magic Millions sale with a high of $280k , another at $200k from his 4 lots of the main session.


Full Sister Miss Manage was a $80,000 yearling graduate from Magic Millions . She is a trial winner and at her only start to date she finished a close up 4th . She is with the Kris Lees stable.


This filly was always going to be a later 2yo , more so 3yo filly being by Starcraft and her classic family . She is now ready for the breakers having now matured into a very strong 15:3 2yo , not unlike Star Witness to my eye.


Her dam Miss Mutola was offered at Easter Inglis as a yearling at a $400,000 reserve, from an EXCEPTIONAL international pedigree , third dam BALANCHINE was a genuine standout racemare .


BALANCHINE is the only filly ever to win the classic double of the EPSON OAKS Gr1 ( See video 2 ) & IRISH DERBY Gr1 . ( see video 1 ) she ran 2nd in the Gr1 Newmarket 1000 for good measure en route towards winning in excess of $1.17M . She is by STORM BIRD , so adds great X-factor to this filly's pedigree. BALANCHINE was a tall handsome filly with a long white sock on her rear leg , traits this filly has also.


The sires of the first four dams being REDOUTE'S CHOICE , RAINBOW QUEST , STORM BIRD & AFFIRMED .


The family has been successful when bred to Nureyev through the deeds of ROMANOV , RED SLIPPERS & THADY QUILL , so should be suited to the Nureyev line stallion StarCraft


The family has great depth . Mr Greeley's dual Group One winning filly Saoirse Abu from a 1/2 sister to Morning Devotion sold for 1,950,000 guineas recently due to her Group One wins in the Moyglare Stud Stakes and Group One Phoenix Stakes as a two-year-old and a third in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. That same generation on her pedigree page produced Art Connoisseur winner of the 2009 Golden Jubilee Gr1 defeating the likes of Sacred Kingdom, JJ The Jet Plane & Bushranger.


It appears to be a family capable of leaving really nice horses , a little further down in the pedigree SHONAN MIGHTY , $3,379,535 is racing extremely well in the strong Japan circuit having won or been placed at stakes level at his 8 most recent starts incl a close up 2nd in the prestigious Yasuda Kinen Mile Gr1 in June .


Just for good measure , TRUST IN A GUST is from a 3/4 sister to BALLANCHINE , making him a close relation to this filly , also both are from non Danehill / Danzig line stallions.
