Broodmare Career: Imagine

Imagine proved herself a top class racemare. She was champion 3yo filly in Ireland in 2001 having taken the Irish 1000 guineas, she later followed that up with a decisive win in the Epsom Oaks.

Her pedigree was also very appealing. She is a daughter of the champion Sadler's Wells out of the top producer Doff The Derby. Imagine wasn't her only Classic winner as she is also the dam of dual Derby winner Generous, he failed to make an impact at stud. Imagine is also a sister to the stakes winning Strawberry Roan. 

The following is the list of progeny produced by Imagine

2003 HORATIO NELSON B.C by Danehill

Horatio Nelson proved to be his dams best runner. He was an outstanding two-year-old winning the Group 1 Prix Jean Luc Lagadere. He lost his unbeaten 2yo run to Derby winner Sir Percy in the Dewhurst by an agonising 1/4 of a length. He was never the same colt and sadly broke down and was later euthanised in the Derby. 

2004 RED ROCK CANYON B.C by Rocj Of Gibraltar 

Red Rock Canyon wasn't as illustrious as his 1/2 brother but he proved to be a very solid Group runner with placings in the Tattersalls Gold Cup & Irish Champion Stakes.

A full sister to Red Rock Canyon, this filly too proved to be a very solid performer. She was a winner of the Group 2 Rockfel stakes as a 2yo. 

2007 VISCOUNT NELSON B.C by Giants Causeway 

Viscount Nelson proved to be a useful 2yo winning the listed Coolmore Hurricane Run stakes. He was also second to Poets Voice in the Group 2 Champagne stakes. He later became a dual Group 2 winner in Dubai.

Broodmare Career: Alexandrova

Alexandrove certainly raised the bar in the summer of 2006. The impeccable bred daughter of Sadler's Wells proved an unstoppable force from 10-12F. 

Alexandrova started her career in the Listed Balanchine stakes. Also in the field was Group 1 placed pair Ugo Fire & Ardbrea Lady, She finished 6th. Alexandrova got off the mark in a maiden at Tralee before finding all but Nannina too good in the Group 1 Fillies mile on just her fourth start. 

She made her classic season campaign in the Group 3 Musidora, she was beaten by the talented Short Skirt. Alexandrova then contested the Group 1 Epsom Oaks where she had the second horse six lengths behind her. She then followed up in the Irish oaks over a month later and completed the treble in the Yorkshire Oaks. She had cemented herself as a truly outstanding mare and a hugely exciting broodmare prospect for Coolmore. 

As well a having three Group 1's to her name, Alexandrova also had the pedigree. She was a 3/4 sister to Group 1 2yo Magical Romance, who later sold for a world record 4.600,000gns at the Tattersalls December Mare sale in 2006. 

Alexandrova was also a full sister to Masterofthehorse, who was third in the Derby. The family recieved a page boost in 2013 when close relative Chiquitta won the Irish Oaks. 

The following is the full current list of progeny produced by Alexandrova

Dupre.
