Palmerston North trainer Lisa Latta went to $125,000 to purchase lot 944, the Brazen Beau filly out of Veuvelicious, making her the most expensive filly sold so far at Karaka Book 2.
Latta was impressed by the filly Highden Park consigned filly when inspecting her at the Manawatu farm and she was intent on securing her for syndication.
“I saw her at the parades in Palmerston North before I came up here and I really liked her,” she said.
“I’ve got her to syndicate out.
“She looks a real up and runner and the Brazen Beaus are going great in Australia, so I’m really happy to have her.
“We missed out on the Vadamos (Lot 859) earlier and ended up the underbidder so we went in a bit nervous on this filly as to whether I had enough.
“I was at my limit so I’m happy to have her.”
The filly was sourced last year in Australia from the Inglis Great Southern Weanling Sale for $52,500 by Bleakley Bloodstock from the Contract Racing draft.
Her full brother is a winner and she is the second and final foal from her stakes-winning Northern Meteor mare Veuvelicious, who died last year.
