Glorious First foal for Pippie

Tara Madgwick - Monday September 12

A brilliantly fast Written Tycoon mare, whose dazzling speed carried her to Group I wins in the MRC Oakleigh Plate and MVRC AJ Moir Stakes, Pippie was a showstopper at the 2021 Inglis Chairman’s Sale selling for $1.8million and has produced a stunning first foal.

Just like Mum!

Cressfield have enjoyed stellar results on the track and in the sale ring over the years with their breeding program through the purchase of elite sprinting mares such as Regimental Gal, Our Egyptian Raine, River Dove, Platelet, Mid Summer Music and Miss Judgement with Pippie sure to add her chapter of success to the story.
