Other Notes:
English Jubilee is a scopey, classy and fluid-moving filly
who is a product of her heritage. She is exactly what
you'd want to see from a daughter of English Channel
out of a Kitten's Joy mare.
This gal is turf through and through and she is designed
and built to run as far as they write races.
English Jubilee is a Canadian/Ontario-Bred, to boot, which
makes her pedigree and status valuable in Toronto at
Woodbine Racetrack, where she will have the luxury of
excelling on synthetic and turf against Ontario-Breds.
Dual Hall of Fame trainer in Canada and in the U.S.A.,
Mark Casse, who has trained 2 Canadian-Bred Champions
... the past 3 seasons, will be [her trainer]. ...English Jubilee
is out of a Kitten's Joy mare... [this is] her 1st foal.
