A full sister to stakes-placed Maili and a half-sister to stakes-winner Kalino, who has won over $660,000 in prizemoney, the stylish dark brown filly was offered by Tyreel Stud and snapped up by Kearney Racing /Daniel Springfield.

$240,000 Yes Yes Yes filly from Lanikai.

Bred by Bill and Chris Lovatt, she is the fifth foal of well bred I Am Invincible mare Lanikai, who has had four to race for three winners and a place-getter, with her strong female family sure to make this filly a great investment going forward of she gains Black Type like her siblings.

Her third dam is stakes-winner Ride the Rapids, who has spawned a very successful Black Type dynasty that has produced Group I winners River Dove, Captivant, Crown Prosecutor and Group II winning sire Headwater.

Lanikai has been a regular visitor to the Coolmore sires and produced a colt by Kalino’s sire Pierro last spring before going back to him again.
