The Queen isn’t having babies just yet.
MOIRA, recently purchased for $4.3 million following her big win in the Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf (G1) by Yulong Investments, is headed to Australia to Yulong Stud in Mangalore, about 90 minutes north of Melbourne. It was in the aforementioned city where Yulong’s owner Yuesheng Zhang was when he had the successful bid over the internet on Moira at The November Sale, just hours before the Melbourne Cup.
Offered by Hill ‘n’ Dale at Xalapa, agent for X-Men Racing, Madaket Stables and SF Bloodstock, Moira saved her best moment for seemingly last when she won the Filly & Mare Turf by a diminishing half a length over Cinderella’s Dream.
