The Mission

Choisir

My Amelia (by Redoute's Choice)

2023 Service Fee:

$8,800 (inc. GST)

Overview

Off to a flying start and not taking his hoof off the pedal, The Mission was crowned Champion Queensland First Season Sire for 2021/22 (3rd in Australia) and again finished his second season on a high courtesy of Group winner and multiple Group placed Yellow Brick ($1.4 million in earnings), City Mission, Kalumburu, Mission of Love etc. And the new season is starting in similar fashion with City Mission capturing the Townsville Guineas in the first week of August.

His 2022/23 winners inc. Mission Of Love, Yellow Brick, Mission Estate etc.

On the racetrack, The Mission – by emerging sire of sires Choisir – was an outstandingly tough 2YO, and a two and a half length winner of the Gr.3 ATC Schweppervescence Handicap, before ending his juvenile campaign with a dominant win in the Gr.1 ATC Champagne Stakes, a race won in the past by Gr.1 producing sires Pierro and Helmet.

At three he was beaten less than two lengths in the Gr.1 ATC All Aged Stakes at Randwick by Trapeze Artist and Redzel under weight-for-age conditions in a race run in track-record time.

Out of a Redoute’s Choice mare, just like the successful Gr.1 sire Zoustar, The Mission is the ONLY Gr.1-winning, Champion 2YO by his sire standing at stud in Australia.

The Mission will be the fourth Gr.1-winning stallion from the Paul Perry stables, following on from Fastnet Rock, Stratum and The Mission’s very own sire Choisir.

A stunning individual with the pedigree and physique to match, The Mission was bred by Edinglassie Stud, whose other leading farm graduates include the successful, proven Gr.1 sire Nadeem as well as the promising young sires Deep Field and Shooting To Win.
