A $100,000 Magic Millions purchase for James Bester Bloodstock from the Aquis Farm draft, Splendiferous runs for a big syndicate of lady owners who are no doubt having a lot of fun with this filly who is clearly on an upswing!

Splendiferous is a half-sister to Group III winner Ballistic Boy and is the third winner from Magical Mist, a metro winning half-sister to Group I winner Distill.

Pride of Dubai

She looks a bright prospect for Pride of Dubai, who stands at fee of $22,000 this spring.
