Executive summary

Why this pedigree deserves attention.

A bay filly by Group 1 CF Orr Stakes winner Alabama Express from four-time winner Pure. The immediate family features champion three-year-old Flying Artie, million-dollar galloper Belflyer and Australian Horse of the Year Better Loosen Up.

Alabama Express is a Group 1-winning son of Redoute’s Choice. His early crops have already produced Group 1 VRC Oaks winner Treasurethe Moment and a growing group of stakes horses—valuable evidence of the line’s class and versatility.

Pure won four races from 1100m to 2046m and is by Golden Slipper winner Pierro. She is a half-sister to Group 1 Coolmore Stud Stakes winner Flying Artie and million-dollar earner Belflyer.
