Charity Line remains perfect in Italy

Charity Line, a three-year-old daughter of Manduro, won her third race from three starts on Sunday May 5, when easily landing the Listed Premio Baggio over 2000m at Milan by three lengths. A once-raced juvenile, this was her second start of 2013 after a impressive seasonal debut victory at Rome. She will now try to emulate her half-sister Cherry Collect, who won the G2 Oaks d'Italia last season.

Bred by Razza Del Velino Srl, Charity Line is out of the Stakes winner Holy Moon and is from the family of another Oak d'Italia heroine in Bright Generation.

Manduro, who is currently standing his first season in France at a fee of €10,000, has now sired six Stakes winners including Mandaean, who was a G1-winning juvenile in France; Dante Stakes hero Bonfire; Fractional, unbeaten at a mile including the G3 Prix Quincey; and French G3-winning filly Trois Lunes.
