In partnership with Watership Down Stud, sponsors of next Saturday's G3 Watership Down Too Darn Hot Greenham S., Newbury has launched a competition to name one of the stud's most recent arrivals, a bay filly born Mar. 10 by champion Frankel (GB), out of the group winning mare, So Mi Dar.

A Group 3 winner, So Mi Dar also finished third in the G1 Prix de l'Opera. She is out of the Watership Down Stud-campaigned MG1SW Dar Re Mi (GB), who has produced four group performers, including European Champion 2-year-old and 3-year-old, Too Darn Hot (GB) (Dubawi {Ire}). He stands at Darley's Dalham Hall Stud and has his first crop of yearlings in 2022.

Watership Down Stud owners, Andrew and Madeleine Lloyd Webber will decide on the winning entry, which will be announced Monday, May 2.

The winning prize for the selected name will include:

  • Trip for up to six individuals or family to Watership Down Stud for a private tour and meet the foal
  • Table for the day and Premier badges for six people in the Parade Ring Lawn Saturday, Sept. 17, including a picnic box.

There will also be the opportunity to enter the competition at Newbury Apr 16-17, as well as at the Newbury Racecourse exhibition stand at the Lambourn Open Day Apr. 15.
