About QUEEN CONSORT - The Yearling Filly by Eminent out of Queen Boudicca

Definite Staying/Oaks type of Filly

QUEEN CONSORT – the Eminent – Queen Boudicca Yearling Filly

Pedigree

QUEEN CONSORT has an excellent pedigree. Her Sire, EMINENT, a son of the mighty Frankel, won twice at Group Level in the UK, ran 4 th in The Derby at Epsom, was placed twice at Group One Level, in the Irish Championship Stakes and the Ranvet Stakes at Royal Randwick. His oldest progeny are now aged Two. He dam, QUEEN BOUDICCA, won as a 2yo and ran 3 rd in the Group 3 Matamata Breeders Stakes and is the dam of three foals to race, including ALOISIA, who won the Group One 1000 Guineas (1600m) at Caulfield and the Group Two Moonee Valley Vase (2040m) – notable that she also ran 2nd in the Group One JJ Atkins Stakes (1600m) as a 2yo at Eagle Farm

Syndicator’s view (John Galvin)

“Given the success we have been having with staying types, I had requested our selection team of David Ellis, Mark Walker and Marcus Corban to select a Filly with a nice pedigree page and with the physical characteristics to develop into a nice stayer.  When they bought Lot 446 to my attention and I saw that she was a half sister to the Group One Caulfield Guineas winner, ALOISIA, I thought we were no show to secure her within our budget of $120k, but remarkably, she was knocked down to our bid of just $75k – sometimes we get lucky.”

Trainer’s view (Mark Walker)

“Lot 446 really caught my eye when I was doing Video inspections – she is a good sized filly with a lovely athletic walk – her Sire Eminent is a well performed son of Frankel and while he has yet to make his mark as a Sire (his oldest progeny are just 2yo’s) he is throwing a lovely type of horse. This Filly’s half sister, ALOISIA (by Azamour) was good enough to win the Group One Caulfield 1000 Guineas over 1600 metres and the Group two Moonee Valley Vase over 2040m, so clearly could get over ground and notable, that as a 2yo she ran 2nd in the Group One JJAtkins Stakes  over 1600m, so was very versatile. I expect that this Filly could well race in the Autumn as 2yo, but she will develop into a lovely NZ 1000 Guineas type as a 3yo and I would also expect her to be a genuine Oaks type of Filly in the Autumn of her 3yo year – she represents great value at $75k, I thought she would make double that.”

Selectors view (David Ellis)

“Re Lot 446, firstly I have a lot of respect for Eminent as a Stallion – his progeny are yet to make a mark but that is because he is never going to throw 2yo types – they simply need more time. As a racehorse he was very competitive among the best of his age group in both the UK and Australia – we have two Eminent 2yo’s in the Stable right now and Mark Walker thinks a lot of them both. His Sire line of Frankel, Galileo and Sadlers Wells is one of the greatest lines of all time and this Filly has a double cross of Danehill as well for good measure. This Filly’s pedigree page on the dam side is also outstanding – Queen Boudicca is the dam of ALOISIA, the winner of the 1000 Guineas (Group One) at Caulfield, an incredibly hard race to win, she also won the Moonee Valley Vase (Group 2) over 2040m and was placed in other Group races as well. The 2 nd, 3rd and 4th dams all threw Group winners. The Filly herself presents as a strong, well developed type who is a great mover – she clearly is going to get over ground as an older horse and I thought she was exceptional buying for just $75,000.”

Ongoing Preparation

Queen Consort has been very well educated to dat – completing her breaking in process late April, she had two stable preparations before trialing nicely 13th November – given a further 3 week paddock spell at that point she has been back in work since early December and on track to trial again mid January and potentially to make he race day debut in March 2024
