Celebrity Dream is the highest-priced yearling filly ever sold at public auction by her sire at NZ$260,000.

She has a yearling half brother by Iffraaj, a weanling half brother by Not A Single Doubt and her dam was served by Ocean Park in 2019. Her Group-winning half sister Vavasour has a More Than Ready yearling colt, an I Am Invincible weanling colt and was served by Dundeel in 2019.

As a broodmare sire Red Ransom has produced daughters that are responsible for the likes of Secret Agenda, Yourdeel, Rollout The Carpet.

Recent Australian G1 winners produced from fast, Australian Stakes-winning mares include Exceedance, Nature Strip, Sunlight, Pierata, Microphone, Shadow Hero etc.

New Zealand-bred mares have in recent years produced top-class Australian-bred horses like Winx, Lankan Rupee, Capitalist, Mystic Journey, Tivaci, Hellbent, Loving Gaby etc.

“She was a very good racemare, probably significantly better than her record shows. She is the sort of mare that I could build a programme around, so I would rather not be selling her. However, I have made a conscious decision to focus on my own 6 or so pedigrees for breeding, so the opportunity with this mare will become somebody else’s.” - Bob Peters, Owner
