Inglis to Offer Group 1 Performed Fasika

Breeders will be presented with another world-class rare gem when Group 1-performing mare Fasika (So You Think) is offered in the Inglis Digital August (Late) Online Auction. The Joe Pride trainee - synonymous with a tough, on-speed racing pattern - secured five wins and five minor placings from 15 starts for $762,000 in prizemoney. Fasika won her first two starts – as a 3YO filly – with significant ease before stepping up to Stakes class for the first time at start three  to capture the South Pacific Classic over 1400m at Randwick during The Championships in 2019. From then on, according to inglis.com.au, she raced exclusively in either stakes races or newly formed ‘rich races’, defeating the likes of Santa Ana Lane, Tofane, Bivouac, Super Seth, I Am Excited, Behemoth, Fierce Impact, Dreamforce, Mizzy, Sweet Deal, Fiesta, Zousain, Standout, Wild Planet, Madam Rouge, Champagne Cuddles etc. Fasika (pictured) won three stakes races during her career – the South Pacific Classic, the Gr2 Sapphire Stakes over 1200m and the Gr3 Wenona Girl Handicap also over 1200m – and placed in four others. She also finished third behind dual G1 winners Tofane and Pierata in the Gr1 All Aged Stakes over 1400m at just tenth start. She is out of winning mare Jarada, by Redoute’s Choice – runaway winner of the 2020-21 Black Type Dam Sire Premiership. As a broodmare sire he boasts 121 stakes-winners including 22 Group 1 winners. Below is Fasika's exceptional run in the Silver Eagle.
