Media Release - Friday August 6

G2-winning, dual G1 placed mare Moonlight Maid headlines a typically strong Inglis Digital August (Early) Sale, which also features some intriguing lots from the continued dispersal of Shadwell’s Australian stock.

Moonlight Maid is a standout in the latest Inglis Digital Sale.

A top-class breeding prospect, Moonlight Maid (Puissance de Lune) was a winner on debut at Geelong as a 2YO, before claiming the G2 Edward Manifold Stakes at just her fourth start, defeating the likes of Miami Bound, Fascino and Subpoenaed.

Moonlight Maid was placed in both the G1 VRC Oaks and G2 Moonee Valley Vase and was also narrowly beaten in the G1 Australasian Oaks by Toffee Tongue.

The 5YO mare is out of Stakes-winning 2YO Manhattan Maid by Choisir and has a breeding certificate, comprehensive parade footage and racing highlights available on her listing.
