A stakes-placed daughter of Elusive Quality (USA), Sweet Little Lies was bred
and raced by the late Brian Agnew and went to stud in 2013. Her first foal born
was a colt by Teofilo (IRE) that was sold first as a weanling for $75,000 to renowned
pinhookers Musk Creek Farm, who then resold him for $240,000 at Magic Millions
to Mulcaster Bloodstock.Trained by Chris Waller, the now four year-old gelding Tunero scored over 1900 metres at Canterbury in a Benchmark 70 event, his second win from 13 starts.
Sweet Little Lies was sold in 2015 at the Inglis Broodmare Sale with Emirates Park signing the docket at $205,000.
She was in foal to Choisir and the result of that mating, a flashy chestnut filly called Tell Me was also a winner at Canterbury on Friday night in the Emirates Park colours.
Trained by Team Hawkes, the three year-old was a short priced favourite against older mares and scored a tenacious head win making it two city wins in a row having broken her maiden at the same venue last start.
Sweet Little Lies has a two year-old filly by Dream Ahead (USA) called Little Stevie that was sold at Inglis Classic this year for $60,000 to Ellerton Zahra Racing and her current yearling is a filly by Snitzel,
Sweet Little Lies is a three-quarter sister-in-blood to stakes-winner Nocturnelle, who has thrown a couple expensive yearlings including $1million Snitzel colt Dracarys, a Group III winner.
Sweet Little Lies has foaled this spring producing a colt by Not a Single Doubt.
Her first two foals are both good metropolitan winners so there could be even better to come for Sweet Little Lies.
