Lot 218 is a filly by exciting young sire Sword of State, who has made a flying start to his stud career by siring Listed Debutant Stakes winner Torture and unbeaten colt Warwoven with his first two runners in Australia. This filly is closely related to high class two-year-old Ethereal Star who was a Listed winner at two and ran second in the Karaka Million 2YO. Ethereal Star is out of Gr.3 winning mare Eleonora whose three-year-old Day One broke his maiden in impressive fashion at Ellerslie in his second start on December 11.
