Arrowfield Stud has farewelled one of its most treasured champions, with Golden Slipper and VRC Oaks winner Miss Finland passing away peacefully at the age of 22.
Arrowfield shared the news on social media, paying tribute to the outstanding mare.
“Our beloved superstar Miss Finland (Redoute’s Choice-Forest Pearl) died peacefully this morning at the age of 22, leaving us with the shining memories of her exceptional racing career as a Champion 2YO, Champion 3YO Filly & 5-time Group 1 winner and gratitude for her legacy, headed by her G1-winning & stakes-producing daughter Stay With Me.”
By Arrowfield’s champion sire Redoute’s Choice, Miss Finland was retired from broodmare duties in 2024. Her final foal is an unraced three-year-old filly by Dundeel named Martha’s Choice.
A granddaughter of Group 1 Epsom Oaks winner Moonshell, Miss Finland produced 12 foals, nine of whom raced and seven became winners.
Her standout progeny was Group 1 MRC Thousand Guineas heroine Stay With Me, her lone stakes winner, while Earth Angel, Bucharest and the ill-fated Miracle of Love were all stakes placed.
With four of her daughters still part of the Arrowfield broodmare band, the influence of Miss Finland is set to endure for generations to come.
