Markle as a yearling

Before her marriage to Prince Harry, the Duchess of Sussex was Meghan Markle, US actress and star of TV show Suits.

Cambridge Stud's Brendan and Jo Lindsay have settled on Markle as the name for their Stratum filly, who makes her debut in race four over 1200 metres.

A $320,000 Inglis Easter purchase from the Widden stud draft by John Foote Bloodstock, Markle is from stakes-placed More Than Ready (USA) mare Fairy Star.
