Lot 567 bay filly Pierata – Doubt She’s A Lady (Not A Single Doubt) - draft: Seaton Park
Group One winner Pierata is a young sire son of Pierro (Lonhro), the quintessential racehorse and Champion First and Second Season Sire in Australia, who only ever ran in stakes races, winning 11 of his 14 starts and amassed $4.5 million in prize money.
Pierata stands at the Yulong Stud, alongside Champion Sire and sire of sires Written Tycoon (Iglesia), where he will get every opportunity to serve some of the best mares in Australasia.
Pierata won the stallion-making All-Aged Stakes (Gr. 1, 1400m) at Randwick, and his oldest progeny are three-year-olds.
He also placed four times at Group One level, won The Shorts (Gr. 2, 1100m) and Missile Stakes (Gr. 2, 1200m), Sydney Stakes (Gr. 3, 1200m), and Vo Rogue Plate (Gr. 3, 1300m).
From his first crop, Pierata produced stakes winning sprinters Tobeornottobe and Coleman, the latter placed at Group One level.
Dam Doubt She’s A Lady is by outstanding Australian sire Not A Single Doubt (Redoute’s Choice), a sire with which Te Akau has had plenty of success, and now carving out a name for himself as a leading broodmare sire.
Ellis purchased stakes winner and multiple Group Two and Group Three placed Sans Doute (Not A Single Doubt), who won four in succession at Flemington, culminating in the Hoysted Stakes (Listed, 1000m), from the Te Akau stable at Cranbourne. Grand-dam Lady Mulan (Bigstone) won the Light Fingers Stakes (Gr. 2, 1200m) and was twice Group One placed.
“She’s by a sire that is already being held in high regard in Australia, and he is also the sire chosen by Yulong to be the first stallion mating for Imperatriz, the 10-time Group One winner that we sold last year,” said David Ellis.
“There is a lot of Not A Single Doubt in her makeup, giving her plenty of depth through the barrel and girth, and she looks like an early type.
“It’s a big pedigree and she’s an outstanding type of filly.”
The filly carries a cross of breed shaping sire Danehill, on the dam line of Pierata and sire line of Doubt She’s A Lady.
