Background

Nefertiti is a bay mare foaled on September 9, 1995, at Pamulang Stable in Tangerang, Banten (formerly West Java). Her sire is Eagling (THB), a son of Nureyev, and her dam is Nefertari (G3), a daughter of Darth Vader. [1] Nefertiti breed is classified as G4 (Generasi ke-4) based on the Pordasi classification, with a proportion of Thoroughbred genetic material more than 87.5%. [2]

Her name, Nefertiti, was taken from an Ancient Egyptian Queen, the consort of pharaoh Amenhotep IV.

Racing career

During her national racing career, Nefertiti only won a few races. In the 1999 Piala Bhayangkara Seri I at Pulomas Racecourse, she achieved third place in the derby class qualification (1,850 m), with Arung Samudera and Evanda in first and second place respectively. [3] In the same race, the top and most expensive horse in Indonesia at that time, Fero Star, finished in 8th place. [3] With this, Nefertiti qualified for the final of the 1999 Indonesia Derby. [3]

After passing the derby class qualification, Nefertiti is entitled to continue to the 1999 Indonesia Derby at Pulomas, running over a distance of 1,850 meters. [4] In the race, Nefertiti faced two favorites: Spicy and Arung Samudera. With veteran jockey Coen Singal, Nefertiti finished first, [2] followed by Arung Samudera in second, and Spicy in sixth. [4]

After the Indonesian Derby, Nefertiti immediately ended her career as a racehorse and became a broodmare.
