Straffan (Shinko Forest-Katherine Gorge)

I'm thinking about possibly making the owners an offer on this filly.

She's the 4th foal; half-sister to 2 2yo winners, including 4yo Miss Champers, winner of several races over 6-8f from 2 to 4; dam unraced daughter of useful sprinter Katies First, herself out of top-class miler Katies.

Any views on her pedigree and a UK/IRE based stallion that'd be a good choice for her.

I would look for a stallion with Nureyev, as her family has crossed well with that in the past.
