Your
Song featured in South Africa on Thursday with an impressive three year-old
winner called Nautic Spirit, who has a sibling headed to Inglis Premier.
Trained by Paul Peter, Nautic Spirit improved on a last start second to bolt
away and win the 1200 metre maiden by more than five lengths at her fourth
start as a short priced favourite.
Passed in as a weanling, Nautic Spirit was bred by Baddock Bloodstock and is
the first foal of Karalli, a half-sister to stakes-winner Actress and and also
the dam of Group I stars Desert War and Laser Hawk.
Karalli was bought by Rosemont Stud at the Magic Millions National Broodmare
Sale in 2015 and they sold a Zoustar filly from her at Magic Millions last year
for $400,000.
Her current yearling is a filly by Starspangledbanner that will be offered asLot 451 at Inglis Premier next month.
Nautic Spirit is another nice winner for Your Song, who has 14 entries for
Inglis Classic starting on Saturday night.
