Reflexion Faite (Fr)
We have been syndicating National Hunt horses for nearly 25 years, and through that time have only ever had a handful of runners on the flat – either by way of prep runs or as a way of sweetening up a hurdler or chaser.
We felt it was about time we dipped out toe into the flat proper and have purchased our first yearling to run in that sphere.
Reflexion Faite is a very attractive, and athletic daughter of Intello, out of a black type mare that was rated 88, and who has bred a horse that won no less than 10 races and was rated 98.
Her sire Intello is a son of the great Galileo, and after winning both of his starts at two, went on to win the Prix De Jockey Club (French Derby) and finish third in the Group 1 Prix Jaques Le Marois as well as winning two further Group 3’s. Intello was crowned Champion 3 yr old in France in that year.
A trainer has yet to be decided - She has arrived with Jason Maguire who will get her broken in. We will see how Jason finds her, and send her to the yard that will suit her best. I think this is the sensible option - I do have three yards in mind - 2 in Newmarket with very takented young trainers and another in the south of England.
Reflexion Faite is offered in 25 shares, either on a free lease with no capital outlay, or to purchase for £500 each. Monthly costs are fixed at £110 and are inclusive of all costs – with absolutely no hidden extras, giving shareholders the peace of mind that there are no unexpected costs. An owners badge will be made available whenever she runs, and stable visits will be welcomed and at individual shareholders convenience, in addition to organised group visits. .
Please get in touch for further details, and to register your interest - no payment will be requested until a trainer has been decided upon, as where she will be trained will obviously have a bearing as to who joins the syndicate.
Worth noting that the winner of the 2022 French St Leger - the Prix Royal Oak was a 6,000 Euro purchase from the same sale - there is real value to be found there, and we really think we may have just unearthed a gem - if she goes as well as she looks she should be very smart indeed!
