A half-sister to G3 Chairmans Stakes winner Sebonack (Capitalist), Profoundly (Farnan) won a second trial in fine style at the Gold Coast with a 1l trial win over Secret Rose (Flying Artie). The Lee Freedman-trained filly won her debut trial at the end of December by a 1.5l margin over Lettie’s Lot (Harry Angel {Ire}), who finished eighth in the $500,000 Magic Millions The Debut on Magic Millions race night earlier this month.
Sebonack sets a precedent for this precocious filly, winning the Chairmans on debut before running fourth in Daumier’s G1 Blue Diamond Stakes, only beaten 1.15l.
Bred by Mrs A Caldwell, Profoundly was offered by Sledmere Stud at last year’s Inglis Classic Yearling Sale, where she was purchased by Dlf Racing Services racing for $65,000. Her half-sister by Stay Inside attracted the bid of Bjorn Baker Racing and Clarke Bloodstock (FBAA) at the Gold Coast this month, where they ultimately paid $360,000 for the filly.
Dam Profound Wisdom (Al Samer) is a dual-winning half-sister to Highview Stud’s Santos and G3 Nakayama Yukan Fuji Sho Ocean Stakes winner Melagrana (Fastnet Rock). The family also features 18-time winner Jivago (Snaadee {USA}) and 13-time winner and G1 Newmarket Handicap victor Shaftesbury Avenue (Salieri {USA}). She delivered a colt by Anamoe this spring, and visited Stay Inside again in November.
