3-year old filly by record breaking stallion Rakti

Trainer Mick Channon
West Ilsley, Nr Newbury, Berkshire

INTERAKT is a three year old filly by Rakti who was a champion older horse. While she ran with great promise as a two year old her breeding has always suggested that she will improve as she gets older. She confirmed this with a win at Brighton early in her three year old campaign and trainer Mick Channon is very pleased with her. She has been a revelation this year, following her win at Brighton with a second and third in competitive races recently. She is sure to win again this season.

INTERAKT runs a super race first time out at Newbury over 7furlongs on June 24 2009. Slowly out of the stalls and hampered when another jockey slipped from his horse, INTERAKT ran on impressively to finish fifth in this top class maiden. This filly will win races!

Her Sire RAKTI (pictured right) won no less than SIX  Group 1 races, making him an exceptional racehorse. 

RAKTI was joint Champion Miler in the world in 2004, Timeform 129 and joint Champion Miler in Europe in 2005, Timeform 130. 

Furthermore, he is a grandson of the Champion sire Danzig - 30% of
all Group races in the world are by Danzig line horses. 2009 will be his first season as a sire.

AMELIE POULICHE, the dam, won one race and was placed 8 times which shows great consistency. This is her first foal.

December 2008. Still a yearling and just backed, our RAKTI filly is already looking promising. She was a little madam to break in however but we like a bit of spirit in a filly!
