Executive summary

Why this pedigree deserves attention.

This filly is built around a speed-led top line and a dam line carrying world-class European blood and proven Australasian performance. Diatonic contributes elite Japanese sprint-mile ability through Lord Kanaloa. Frankly Rosie contributes Frankel, Galileo and Danehill, before the pedigree reaches the highly productive San Century family.

The displayed four generations contain no obvious close duplication. Instead, the mating brings together several globally important but complementary lines: King Kamehameha, Storm Cat and Sunday Silence through the sire; Galileo, Danehill, Green Desert and Centaine through the dam.

That breadth is the central appeal. There is abundant speed, but also enough class and middle-distance influence to give the pedigree genuine range.

The ownership case

A filly with speed, depth and a story worth joining.

This is the type of pedigree that gives owners plenty to be excited about: a young Japanese sire line with genuine Group-class speed, Frankel sitting immediately behind the dam, and a female family that has already produced a Group 1 miler, a Group 2 Villiers winner and outstanding juvenile performers.

She is a first foal, she is trained from Flemington by Mark and Levi Kavanagh, and only 5% remains. For owners looking for an affordable way into a filly with international bloodlines and long-term residual appeal, this is a particularly attractive opportunity.

01 · Sire line

Diatonic

Durable, repeatable Japanese speed.

Diatonic won ten races from 1200m to 1600m. His major victories included the Group 2 Hanshin Cup and two editions of the Group 2 Swan Stakes, and he placed at Group 1 level in the Takamatsunomiya Kinen.

He is by Lord Kanaloa, the Japanese Horse of the Year and champion sprinter-miler whose progeny include champion Almond Eye, international sprinter Danon Smash and Australian Group 1-winning juvenile Tagaloa.

Pedigree signalHigh-class acceleration, sprint-mile range and the constitution associated with a horse who continued winning Group races across multiple seasons.

02 · Dam line

Frankly Rosie

Frankel over a proven San Century family.

Frankly Rosie is an unplaced daughter of Frankel and this is her first foal. While there is therefore no direct produce record yet, her position as a daughter of Frankel gives the filly access to one of the most influential international stallions of the modern era.

Frankel is by Galileo from Kind, a daughter of Danehill. His daughters have already produced Group 1 winners, supporting his emerging importance as a broodmare sire rather than relying only on his extraordinary direct sire record.

Pedigree signalInternational class, athletic scope and a broodmare-sire influence with growing elite evidence.
