CALIFORNIA MOXIE was sold at 220,000 gns in 2023 Tattersalls Craven Breeze Up Sale. His sire MEHMAS is an extreme precocious runner and most of his next generations ran on well in sprint and miler events. His dam OBAMA RULE was 1800M G3 winner in Ireland and her foal INSINUENDO was 3-time Group events winner and 2nd runner up in G1 British Champions Fillies & Mares Stakes while former Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe winner CARNEGIE is dam family member. The Irish import should be able to handle up to a mile in future.
