About
Taimate Diva is an 8yo bay mare trained by Andrew J Carston at Riccarton Park. She is by the stallion Telperion out of the dam Mistaar. To date she has recorded nine victories. On 20 February 2026 at Ashburton she claimed her biggest triumph, winning the $50,000 Open Handicap. Punters have found her to be a profitable runner; backing her throughout her career would have yielded a 6% return on investment.
