A Fast Lady For Lordship
A Fast Lady For Lordship…
The Harris family of Lordship Stud on the outskirts of Newmarket know all about fast families with the jewel in the crown of their broodmare band being Swiss Lake (GB) (Indian Ridge {GB}), the dam of stakes-winning sprinters Swiss Diva (GB), Swiss Spirit (GB) and Swiss Dream (GB).
The team added another potential speed influence to the ranks yesterday when bidding 350,000gns for 3-year-old Coral Mist (GB) (Bahamian Bounty {GB}) (lot 1811) from the New England Stud draft.
Tom Harris, whose parents Trevor and Libby own the stud, said, “She’s a neat compact filly from a fast family and she’ll be coming back to the farm.”
Coral Mist beat Hoku by a nose to land the G3 Firth of Clyde S. last season and her dam Treasure Trove (The Minstrel) has also produced the hardy and talented Toylsome (GB) (Cadeaux Genereux {GB}), who numbers the G1 Prix de la Foret among his 16 victories.
