New Stakes-Winner for Harry Angel

Tara Madgwick - Thursday October 5

The first son of Dark Angel to shuttle to Australia, Darley’s Harry Angel (IRE) posted a new stakes-winner overnight in France where three year-old colt Vicious Harry won the Listed Prix de Bonneval (1100m) at Chantilly and is interestingly from an Australian bred mare.

Trained by Mauricio Delcher Sanchez, Vicious Harry was a winner at two and has been consistent without winning this year. He broke through to score a short neck win taking his overall record to two wins and seven placings from 12 starts.


Vicious Harry is the first winner from Umneeyatee, a blue blood Australian daughter of Encosta de Lago that did her racing in South Africa for her breeder Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum.

Umneeyatee was put through the 2019 Tattersalls December Mares Sale where she made just 11,000 guineas, which looks a bargain in light of her pedigree.

Umneeyatee is one of eight winners from stakes-winning Woodman  mare Moon Is Up, a daughter of champion race mare and blue hen Miesque.

Moon is Up came to Australia in 2008 when in foal to champion sire Pivotal and the result of that mating was outstanding filly Amanee, who won the Group I Thekwini Stakes in South Africa for Sheikh Mohammed Bin Khalifa Al Maktoum.

Moon is Up closed out her stud career in Australia and was retired in 2018, while her Group I winning daughter Amanee is also back in Australia after being covered by Deep Impact in her first season at stud.



Vicious Harry is the ninth stakes-winner worldwide for Harry Angel, whose best offspring is Australian bred three year-old colt Tom Kitten.

Harry Angel is back at Darley NSW this spring at a fee of $33,000.
