Bold Bunny

 

Bold Bunny is a horse that Celia bred from her mare Bold and Beautiful. Records show that she was not the best of racehorses, but if you look at the family, they have certainly produced their fair share of winners. And not all at the lowest level!

I would also claim that she wasn't the luckiest of racehorses and deserved better than her two third places. But what owner wouldn't say that?

She was actually called Bold Bunny, because her mother was Bold and Beautiful and her foster mother was nicknamed Bunny. Bold and Beautiful died soon after Bold Bunny was born.

On Thursday though her Needwood Blade colt was bought at auction by Shadwell Estate for 58,000 guineas, after being sold in December as a foal for 40,000. So it does seem that she produces the good looking horses which appear in her family.
