We are delighted to be welcoming this Grunt filly out of South Pearl into the Carberry Racing stable, a filly who profiles as a classic 3 year old type, with the scope, action and pedigree to progress through the grades over time.
By Grunt, sire of our own Strictly Business, this filly is bred to improve with maturity, distance and time.
Pedigree highlights
This is a proven staying family with genuine Oaks credentials:
- Half-sister: Placid Pearl — recent winner at Randwick over 2000m
- Second dam: South Sea Pearl (by Danehill) placed in both SAJC Australian Oaks (2nd) and SAJC South Australian Oaks (3rd)
The depth of this female line consistently points toward middle distance to staying success, particularly as they mature into their 3 year old and 4 year old seasons.

The filly
Physically, she is an athletic, scopy filly with:
- A fluent, economical action
- Natural balance and presence
- The frame and constitution to develop into a strong staying type
She presents as a filly who will strengthen into her work, thrive with time, and reward a patient, well structured program.
Why she appeals
- Proven Grunt × staying female line cross
- Oaks placed second dam and a current metropolitan winning half-sister
- Suited to a patient, progressive program targeting 3 year old and classic style races
- A profile we know well and one we’ve already taken to the top level
Ownership details
- 5% share: $1,500 + GST
- Once fully subscribed, we will organise for her to come into the stable

This is a filly for owners who enjoy the journey, watching a horse develop, strengthen and step into her own. With her pedigree, physique and action, she shapes as a lovely long term racing prospect with black type influence running deep through her page.
