Selling Information
  • Located at Amarina Farm, NSW
  • Defeated 14 rivals to win the G3 Blue Diamond (Fillies) Preview over 1000m at Caulfield on just her 2nd start as a 2YO.
  • Had 15 rivals, including I Am A Star, Oregon’s Day, Risque and Serenely Discreet, in arrears when winning the G2 Let’s Elope over 1400m at Flemington as an older mare.
  • Sword Of Light’s grandsire Galileo is broodmare sire of 30 G1 winners to date including The Autumn Sun, Warning, Unforgotten, Invincibella etc.
  • One of 66 mares IF to Champion Sire Fastnet Rock from the 2019 season.
  • Recent Australian G1 winners produced from fast, Australian Stakes-winning mares include Exceedance, Nature Strip, Sunlight, Pierata, Microphone, Shadow Hero etc.
  • “This is one of Contract Racing’s principal families. She was a top race filly and is a course a granddaughter of blue hen Razor Blade, who was a wonderful producer. Sword Of Light had unusual speed for a racefilly from the Galileo line and that is very exciting I think. The combination of her speed and the influence of Fastnet Rock looks to have the potential to be potent, especially when you consider how well he has done with mares carrying Galileo. ” - David Moodie, Owner/Breeder
