About the horse
The second offspring of a magical cross!
Regina Deo herself showed great talent, and her dam was nearly a million-dollar mare! The combination of the elite stallion Maharajah and a Cantab Hall mare has produced the exceptional mare Felicity Shagwell, who set the record of 1:08.6!
Regina Deo raced in the U.S. and set a record of 1:13 in May as a three-year-old. She is a sister to Heart N Soul Deo, who finished second in the Liberty Bell, set a record of 1:11.6, and earned $88,000. Regina Deo’s dam, Yursa Hanover, was a top horse with a 1:10 record and $956,000 in earnings from a win in the Matron Stakes and a second-place finish in the Breeders’ Crown. Yursa Hanover is also a sister to He’s Spooky (1:10.0), Yalta Hanover (1:10.6), Thistle Dhu (1:11.1), and Scary God (1:11.5). From the maternal line that has given us Smokin Yankee, Sand Vic, and many, many more.
