MAURICE (JPN) x COURTESAN (NZ) – CLASSIC BRED FILLY ✨🏇
This exceptional filly was secured from the highly regarded Glenbeigh Farm Stud draft at the 2026 Magic Millions Yearling Sale (Lot 192), in partnership with Phillip Stokes Racing.
By elite international sire Maurice (JPN), she is an athletic, well-balanced filly with a fluent, purposeful walk – displaying all the hallmarks of a genuine Guineas / Oaks-style prospect.
Maurice is renowned for producing horses that improve sharply from late two to early three, and this filly fits that profile perfectly. His Australian legacy is headlined by Hitotsu, one of his most celebrated progeny, who made history with three consecutive Group 1 victories in the Victoria Derby, Australian Guineas and Australian Derby.
Her pedigree is stacked with classic stamina and elite black-type depth. She is out of Courtesan (NZ), a daughter of Mastercraftsman from the Star Way mare Argante (NZ). Courtesan has already produced multiple winners and hails from a proven, high-value family, with her progeny selling for up to $525,000.
Courtesan is also a half-sister to Monaco Consul, winner of the Victoria Derby and Spring Champion Stakes, reinforcing the strength of this staying bloodline.
Adding further upside, this filly is a full sister to Matsuda, a progressive 3YO trained by Ciaron Maher, who has shown strong staying promise in the Listed Geelong Classic. She is also closely related to Group 3 winner Proved.
🔮 With multiple runners poised to enhance the page, we see significant pedigree upgrades ahead.
🩷 A rare opportunity to race a filly with classic credentials, residual value, and with a trainer widely respected for bringing fillies along the right way, maximising on-track performance and long-term value.
