Opulence Thoroughbreds are pleased to secure a beautifully bred filly by Cracksman, out of Pure Art, secured at the Tattersalls Book 2 Sale. She will join the powerful Kingsclere stable of Andrew Balding, a trainer renowned for his skill in developing scopey, Classic-type fillies.

Physically, she’s a lovely type: with a great reach of shoulder, plenty of length and a strong hindquarter. She’s a filly with presence: an intelligent outlook, light on her feet, and the kind that naturally catches the eye.

Placed in the expert hands of Andrew Balding, she’ll be given the opportunity to develop steadily and fulfil her promise as a late two-year-old and into her three-year-old season. We see her as a filly with the scope to progress into a high-level performer, one that embodies the patience and ambition behind the Opulence Thoroughbreds approach.

 

Pedigree

This filly carries the hallmark of her illustrious sire, Cracksman, a brilliant son of Frankel and one of the most exciting young stallions in Europe. His progeny have quickly earned a reputation for their balance, quality, and class, attributes clearly evident in this filly’s fluent walk and athletic build.

Her dam, Pure Art, by Mastercraftsman, was a talented performer on the track and represents a family rich in middle-distance ability and progression. The page is full of strong, staying bloodlines that tend to improve with maturity, suggesting this filly will thrive with time and patience.
