Mystic Empire ran in the prestigious G3 Gimcrack on debut and was runner-up, beaten just 0.5 lengths, in the G3 Widden Stakes on her second start as a 2YO, beating subsequent GSWs Sweet Deal and Savatiano.

A $200,000 weanling, she is the highest priced weanling filly by All Too Hard to be sold at auction.

Only 3 sires – I Am Invincible, Snitzel and Exceed And Excel, have sired more Australian SWs so far this season than Mystic Empire’s sire All Too Hard.

Mystic Empire’s broodmare sire General Nediym features in the female pedigrees of the likes of I Am Excited, Mr Quickie, Mamaragan, Jameka, Hey Doc etc.

“Mystic Empire is an exciting, young, Group-performed mare. A daughter of the blue-blooded All Too Hard, whose son Alligator Blood has been scorching the turf this season, this mare was beaten just half a length as a juvenile in the G3 Widden Stakes, with Group winners Sweet Deal and Savatiano behind her. Her first foal is a very nice filly by Champion 2YO Capitalist and she sells IF to the red-hot young Newgate stallion Russian Revolution.” - Jim Carey, Newgate Farm
