Coolmore secures daughter of She’s Extreme in $3.4 million bid
Coolmore has successfully acquired the daughter of She’s Extreme at the Inglis Chairman’s Sale for $3.4 million, marking a notable addition to their roster.
The young filly stole the show at the auction, nearly outshining last year’s top-selling horse, Nimalee, who fetched $3.6 million.
Tom Moore from Coolmore expressed his enthusiasm for this purchase, drawing attention to the track record of success with high-value mares acquired at sales events.
He pointed out the achievements of mares like Samaready, mother of Golden Slipper winner Shinzo and Booker, whose offspring have already amassed over $5.5 million in earnings.
Moore emphasised the importance of bringing in top tier mares to complement Coolmore’s up and coming stallions.
Despite a retirement due to injury, She’s Extreme made a lasting impact on the racing world with victories in races like the Champagne Stakes and VRC Oaks.
Her impressive resume also includes a win in the Group 3 Magic Night Stakes and three top finishes in Group 1 races.
Robert Crabtree, part of She’s Extremes breeding team and ownership group, expressed his joy over Coolmore’s acquisition of this mare.
He admitted that the choice wasn’t about money but about the mare’s outstanding qualities.
Crabtree thanked Coolmore for their faith and backing, remembering their purchase of Mizzy for $2.2 million.
