With four wins and three seconds from nine starts, Beautiful Mind has already won over $129,000 in prizemoney.

A $250,000 Inglis Premier purchase from the Goldin Farms draft for Boomer Bloodstock Pty Ltd (FBAA) / L Smith, Beautiful Mind was bred by Goldin Farms and is the best of two winners from Group I SAJC Australasian Oaks winner Small Minds.

Small Minds has a yearling filly by Fastnet Rock and a colt foal to follow by the same sire.

Beautiful Mind is the 23rd stakes-winner for So You Think, who has had a great start to the season.

The champion son of High Chapparal (IRE) has sired six stakes-winners and winners of over $3.8 million in prizemoney.
