Star Pierro Mare Joins Waller Stable

Tara Madgwick - Friday May 31
Pierro's outstanding daughter Arcadia Queen is heading east to join the powerful Chris Waller stable as she chases further Group I success this spring.

Arcadia QueenThe WA star's owner breeder Bob Peters told WA's TAB Radio Sports Daily program that the Group I-winning filly is heading to Sydney for her spring targets rather than Melbourne.

"I decided to look for someone with an Everest slot," Peters told the show.

"I have not thought about the Cox Plate at this stage."

Chris Waller Racing is one of the 12 The Everest slot holders and is yet to announce its runner.

Peters also indicated the inaugural $7.5 million Golden Eagle (1500m) at Rosehill, a four-year-old set weights race will be one of the targets for Arcadia Queen, who has won from 1200 to 1800 metres in winning five of her six starts to date.
