If ‘luck be a lady tonight’ whoever scoops up this lovely filly will be very fortunate indeed. This bright, shiny, bay filly was extremely photogenic with her dapples sparkling in the sun. She was attentive and stood patiently for her photoshoot. Lady Fortuna has lovely balance with a long shoulder and a leggy, lean, and smoothly muscled physique. She is quite elegant in appearance. Her handler was not aware of any vices or injuries, and we were told that she truly is a lady- whether in the barn, being ponied or ridden, or out with other horses. This very pretty and feminine filly sold for $65,000 as a yearling at Fasig-Tipton. She is by Accelerate out of an Orb mare and is also a very well-travelled young lady- having raced at Saratoga, Belmont and Aqueduct. During her jog video, we observed a relaxed overstep at the walk and pretty, floaty movement at the jog that should appeal to judges in both the hunter and dressage rings. As she jogged out in just a rope lead, her handler kept her tightly controlled on the busy backside, but we bet that she will be quite pretty when allowed to move out and extend a little bit more. Her owner/ trainer is downsizing before winter, moving her less competitive horses onto their second careers. This gives you a chance to get this fancy, lightly raced girl for a reasonable price and be ready to hit the spring shows.
Price: $3,000 negotiable
