Gai Waterhouse | Gai Waterhouse Horses Available 13096 Anamoeartistry 24

By Anamoe, one of the most exciting young sires in the country. This filly is out of a dam Artistry, who was a good racehorse herself, being an eight-time winner and a multiple Group winner. Anamoe set the standard on the track through his brilliance, winning 9 Group 1s. His first yearlings have been met with exactly the sort of demand you would expect from a horse of his calibre.

The page underneath is strong and current. She is out of Artistry, who has already produced two winners from her first three foals, including Hopper and Peindre. Artistry is by Shamardal, whose daughters have become one of the great broodmare influences in the modern breed, with 146 stakes winners and 76 Group winners headed by stars such as Imperatriz, Ceolwulf, Converge and Private Eye. That gives this filly a proper layer of proven class on the dam side.

There is depth right through the family as well. Artistry is from a female line that keeps producing winners, with black type and current performers spread through the page, and that gives this filly real substance behind the headline names. Anamoe on top and a tough, proven Shamardal mare underneath makes for a very appealing Australian pedigree, with the right mix of class, performance and upside.
