Celebrity Dream as a yearlingAlready a Group III winner and multiple stakes-winner, the Adam Durrant trained daughter of Thorn Park racked up her 11th win when forging clear to win the 1400 metre contest by a length and a half.

A $260,000 NZB Premier purchase from the Haunui Farm draft for John Chalmers Bloodstock, Celebrity Dream has won over $600,000 in prizemoney.

She has become a valuable broodmare prospect being a sibling to Group winners Vavasour and Catalonia as well as Group I placed Rondinella from the great producing Group III winner Valpolicella.

Completely free of Danehill blood, six year-old Celebrity Dream will be an easy horse to mate this spring if connections elect to finish her racing career this year.
