I have a New Zealand-bred four-year-old Artsplace mare who is racing quite nicely at the moment in Australia. What is everyone's opinion on embryo transfer? I've always been an advocate of allowing a mare to carry and raise her own progeny - but...

Noticed his yearlings were very popular on the second day at Harrisburg ... seven lots sold at an average of $66,000. They fetched 50k, 55k, 60k, 62k, 65k, 80k and 90k. I'm assuming that means he is rated highly in North America - and they...

The Australian and NZ yearling sales are only a few months away ... Do you expect there will be any surprise packets among the stallions - or will Bettors Delight, Art Major, Christian Cullen still dominate? Are there any lots in particular...

Great to see Bonavista Bay Sire his first winner in the West!! 2yo Double Westbred "Ronald Scott" showed good ability to do all the work outside the leader then power on and win convincingly in a good time of 1.57 flat. ...

Just wondering what other peoples thoughts are but i have to say that i find it very odd that we are almost at the end of June and i can't see what i will be paying for service fees this year.I've had a look around at the major studs and it's all...

did anyone go or have results from the sale? how did they sell? phone bidding was near impossible unfortunately, completely missed the lot I was interested in

For the breeding buffs I would love some opinions on what stallions you think would suit this mare. I was entrusted with the care and safe keeping of the glorious old brown roan racemare ladybird a few years back when she was having trouble...

I think I need to put more white on my coloured ones lol. Yes he has great pedigree on both side unlike the skewbalds but alas one day I will get there and for the time being just continue to breed from well bred stock and one day yes one day I...

Anyone got some inside gossip on any new sires coming over this season? Ive seen those alabar have announced but surely there would be a few more than that, figured those in the know on here might have an idea

i really hate all the pedigree crossing (3x3 etc) and crap talk, so how about a discussion on the different stamps stallions will leave on future progeny (also the negative points), feel free to add to the list or disagree with whats on there art...

why didnt he ever come back to aus

Mypanmar is on his way to the uk to stand at the Camden stud in the north of england:)
