FOREST PHOENIX

LOPE DE VEGA ex SILK FOREST

This is a very impressive looking colt by the sire LOPE DE VEGA, who is always in very high demand at the sales.  LOPE DE VEGA’s stud fee has rocketed over the past few years, and given some of his progeny, it is no surprise really.  He has produced 24 individual Group 1 winners in Europe and Australia.  From top-class sprinters in Australia, like SANTA ANA LANE and GYTRASH, to Group 1-winning milers in Europe, like BELARDO, PHOENIX OF SPAIN and ZABEEL PRINCE.  His progeny tend to come out running early and thrive with age and experience.

This colt certainly doesn’t lack anything when it comes to his pedigree page. He is the second offspring out of a winning KODIAC mare, SILK FOREST.   SILK FOREST was a black-type filly herself and was rated as high as 106 in her prime. She won at Listed level and was also placed at both Group 2 & 3 level.  Her first offspring, Silk Satin, was sold for 140,000gns as a yearling.  Therefore, we feel very fortunate to have secured this colt for only 50,000gns. I have attached his fully pedigree document for information.
