Purchased as a yearling for 1,800 guineas, Pennina was a multiple juvenile winner in 1975. She began her career with a hat-trick at Catterick, Liverpool and Redcar and also won the Chesters Stakes at Newcastle and the Studley Stakes at Ripon.
As a two year old she was placed at Ascot and Goodwood and in 1976 she was beaten a short head at Epsom and finished runner up again at Ascot.
A fantastic filly and a real bargain!
