Note from the breaker: "Hi Paul, Your Catbird filly has completed being broken in and I am happy to say that she broke in really well. She has a kind nature and was really a pleasure to work with. She took to the task well showing good intelligence the whole way through the process. She is a lovely moving horse - one of the best I have broken in this year. Will probably appreciate being given a bit of time to further mature and develop. All the best with her on the racetrack. Hopefully we see her back at Princess Park for pre-training after she has a well deserved break."

The Catbird filly has completed 4 weeks of the 6 week breaking in process and has impressed the Breaker Linc Sullivan so far. He has specifically commented on her good galloping action, keenness to work and intelligence. Linc believes the filly is a mid season (April) 2yo and does not believe we should push her too quickly, but allow for a 10 week break after being broken in. This would allow us to put the filly in work for a educational campaign in November for 6 to 8 weeks, before spelling for approx 6 weeks, then getting into the serious training in Feb with a view to race in April.

Its very early in the breaking in process for our Catbird filly but at this point the breaker Linc Sullivan is very pleased with her and has commented on how impressed he is with her as a horse to look at and at her intelligence as she picks things up very quickly. I have asked for a weekly report from Linc so I will ensure his feedback is passed on as I receive it.

The Catbird Filly continues to do well in the paddock. In the next six weeks she will be sent for breaking in. In the meantime her family is having continued success on the racetrack with our filly's close relative Railings running a close second to Eremein in the Group 1 BMW last weekend.
