Daughter of Complacent set to join O’Shea stable

OTI have purchased impressive last start winner Comme Bella Fille (Complacent) and she will join John O’Shea’s Sydney stable, in a deal brokered by Phill Cataldo.

Prepared by Cambridge trainer Catherine Cameron, the daughter of Mapperley Stud-based Complacent (Authorized) has had three starts for a win and a placing, including a last-to-first performance when winning over 1400 metres at Matamata earlier in the month.

Comme Bella Fille will join O’Shea’s Randwick stables in March and continue her three-year-old preparation with the Queensland Oaks (Gr 1, 2400m) as her main target.

“Our niche is sourcing proven, ready to run bloodstock, and this filly exemplifies this,” said OTI’s general manager Shayne Driscoll. “She has impressive New Zealand form, an attractive pedigree and is primed to race as soon as she touches down in Australia.

“Once she arrives, we expect her to compete in feature three-year-old races in Sydney and Brisbane over the autumn. All going well, she will work towards the Queensland Oaks as her grand final.”
