Her yearling half sister by Pierro was purchased by Orbis Bloodstock at the 2019 Inglis Easter Yearling Sale for $1,100,000 – the most expensive Pierro yearling sold at public auction in 2019
Catchy is in-foal to I Am Invincible, while Cats Whisker has a two year old full brother to Symi named By A Whisker in training with Hayes/Dabernig, a weanling filly by Fastnet Rock and is in foal to Fastnet Rock
Catchy is the only Australian G1-winning 2YO by Champion Sire Fastnet Rock

She was a stand out yearling when she was bought, a pearl of her year. It must be remembered that Symi was a $700,000 yearling purchase before Catchy had even won a stakes race which tells you of the calibre of physical type she is. She has so much quality that will stand with her for the rest of her life. My firm belief is that elite sales yearlings go on to breed elite sales yearlings and I expect this to prove true of Symi - Alan Bell, owner and purchaser of Symi as a yearling
