Cruising Home is definately a one-of-a-kind filly. Her conformation is fantastic, her character a very sweet one, and her powerful ground-eating strides throw a scare in her opponents.
Cruising Home was sired by Silver-Moon Studfarm's very own Champion 3yo Colt & 2011 Racehorse Of The Year, SMS Sky's On Fire. Sky's On Fire is a fantastic racer, with many wins (including G1 and G2). On top of that, he was the most popular TB sire on the ABRB in 2011. Sky's On Fire is a son of the 1995 Champion Turf Horse, Northern Spur®. He was by Chef-de-race Sadler's Wells®. Sadler's Wells was the 1984 Champion Miler (France), and 11 times Leading Sire in the UK. His sire, the 1964 Champion 3yo Colt and 6x Leading Sire Northern Dancer® (also Chef-de-race) has been one of the most influential sires in Thoroughbred history. Sadler's Wells' dam, Fairy Bridge®, was by Bold Reason®, a son of the great Hail To Reason®. Northern Spur's dam, Fruition®, daughter of G1 winner Rheingold®, has very nice bloodlines, tracing back to Nasrullah®, Hyperion® and Nearco®. Sky's On Fire's dam, Cassie's Gold® was a briefly raced daughter of the great G1 winning stallion Strike The Gold®. Strike The Gold is one of the best sons of champion sire Alydar®. Alydar was inducted in the Hall of Fame and was the 1990 Leading Sire (progeny earnings over $60million!). Cassie's Gold's dam, Sky Bonnet®, was a daughter of 2x Leading Sire, Halo® (Chef-de-race). Furthermore, Sky's On Fire has lines to Hail To Reason®, Nasrullah®, Hyperion® and Nearco®.
Cruising Home's dam, Sun Chariot (owned by Katmandu Farms, USA), is a lovely G2 winning mare. She's made quite an impression, beating one of 2011's champions in her first start! She's a daughter of the great stallion Lonhro®. He won 26 races out of 35 starts, including 18 G1 races, and was awarded the titles 2004 Australian HOTY, 2004 Australian Middle Distance Champion, 2002 Australian Champion 3yo and 2011 Leading Sire in Australia. Lonhro was sired by 2x Horse of the Year Octagonal® and out of G1 placed mare Shadea®. Octagonal's lines go to Man 'O War® (Through War Relic®) and Northern Dancer® (through Nureyev®). Shadea's lines trace to Mr. Prospector® and Never Bend®. Sun Chariot's dam was the amazing mare Makybe Diva®. She has many titles to her name, including 2x AU Racehorse Of The Year, 3x AU Champion Stayer, 2005 AU Champion Filly/Mare, AU Middle Distance Champion and 2x SA Thoroughbred Breeders Horse Of The Year. Makybe Diva was also inducted in the Australian Racing Hall of Fame (2006). Her accumulated earnings are A$14.5million+! She was the best daughter of 1997 Irish Champion 3yo Desert King®. Desert King was by Champion Sire Danehill® and out of Sabaah®, a daughter of the 1987 Leading Sire Nureyev®. Makybe Diva's dam was Tugela®, daughter of Chef-de-race Riverman®. Her lines trace to Never Bend®, Roberto®, Hail To Reason®, Northern Dancer® and Princequillo®.
Cruising Home has the speed, stamina and courage to win. This filly will knock everyone off their feet when she races.
