Alexia Fraser and Fast Fillies!

Sponsored Content - by Tara Madgwick - Friday November 5

Alexia Fraser and her team are still celebrating after a filly they sold at Magic Millions earlier this year, See You in Heaven, won the Group III VRC Ottawa Stakes on Thursday and their draft for the Magic Millions 2YO’s in Training Sale next week features a filly that may be just as quick after breezing as the fastest filly in this year’s sale.

See You in Heaven was purchased from the Alexia Fraser Bloodstock draft at Magic Millions.

A savvy pinhook bought by Kestrel Bloodstock for $27,000 from the Aquis draft at the Magic Millions National Weanling Sale, See You in Heaven was snapped up from the Alexia Fraser draft from Magic Millions Book 2 by Richard and Chantelle Jolly for $90,000.

The daughter of Divine Prophet produced a sensational debut performance to beat $800,000 Snitzel filly Satin Love by more than a length in the Ottawa Stakes.

Alexia Fraser Bloodstock will present a draft of seven for the Magic Millions 2YO’s in Training Sale next Monday and the star of the consignment is undoubtedly Lot 137, a Spirit of Boom filly from O’Raghailligh (NZ).

She turned in eye-catching gallop, zooming over her final 200m in a slick 10.24 seconds.

The filly is the third foal from winning O’Reilly mare O’Raghailligh, a half-sister to Group I placed Heidilicious and stakes-placed Sherpa Tenzing from a top class European female family featuring champion racehorse and sire High Chaparral (IRE).
