Miss Federer to Be Sold Unreserved

The unreserved auction of recently retired, multiple NZ stakes winner Miss Federer (Swiss Ace-Halobelle, by My Halo) has launched on Gavelhouse Plus and will run through until 7PM (NZT) on Monday 15 March. Bred by Greg Tomlinson's Nearco Stud, she raced as an early 2YO finishing third on her debut outing followed by back-to-back victories, claiming the Listed Welcome Stakes (1000m) at only her third start. Her race career reaped victories in five of her 14 starts, four of these at stakes level including the Group Three 2YO Taranaki Classic (1200m). Her dominance saw her earn the Champion Southern 2YO title of her generation and the New Zealand Bloodstock Southern Filly of the Year crown. "Miss Federer was an outstanding racehorse, it's hard to choose a highlight race," Andrew Carston commented. "She was precocious enough to run early and be a stakes winner twice as a two-year-old in the North and South Island which is always good and then she was good enough to come back at three and win two more Listed races. Miss Federer was purchased by trainer Andrew Carston for $10,000 at NZB's Karaka 2018 Book 2 Sale from Bradbury Park's draft.  The multiple stakes winner is out of the My Halo mare Halobelle (NZ) who herself is a dual stakes winner. The cross with Swiss Ace has been a successful one, with the full-sister Starlight Angel (NZ) being stakes-placed. View Miss Federer on Gavelhouse Plus here.
