IN THE CONGO X BOLSONARO FILLY
INCENTIVES: Magic Millions Eligible, BOBS & Vobis Silver
A striking filly by exciting first-season sire In The Congo, this is a horse we were determined to secure at the Magic Millions Sale—and she has done nothing to disappoint since arriving in the stable.
From the outset she has impressed with her professionalism, forward attitude, and ability to adapt to new environments. She’s handled each stage of her early education with composure, showing a natural willingness to learn and a fluent, athletic action in her work.
This filly boasts a pedigree built on speed and performance, matched by a lovely, willing temperament—making her a very exciting prospect as she continues to develop. She is out of Bolsonaro, with her second dam Hashmal bringing further depth to the page as a three-quarter sister to four-time winner Aquagirl and a half-sister to three-time winner and black-type performer Villami. With her pedigree stacked with fast, precocious fillies and mares, she carries all the hallmarks of a naturally sharp type with plenty of upside..
