    Exports

    Noticed that the recently exported WA performer Polak(Pacific Fella x Capture A Million) won first up at Yonkers on Saturday night in an elimination of the George Morton Levy Memorial in the fastest time of the night, 1.52 which is slick on a 800m track.

    Obscure Export

    Morning fellow fanatics.
    I noticed the export of Foreclosure N, a Rocknroll Hanover colt bred in NZ ( possibly to northern hemisphere time) exported to stand in Ireland! Was a nice early 2yo in the US..but Ireland?

    Foaled 01/01/08 according to Classic Families, Seems the Irish are getting very serious about their breeding, Foreclosure was a pretty decent performer on the track and comes from a nice family.

    This one was bought by the Bellino's (RockNRoll Heaven, Pet Rock, etc) and exported. Believe a close relative to No Pan Intended.

    My bad. Read it wrong. Said "A Paternal brother to No Pan Intended". Which means both by Pacific Fella

    Thanks Rich!

    I have often wondered what makes our horses so attractive to the American market ? It can't be cheap to transport horses half way around the world whilst I have no doubt that there is a plentiful supply of locally bred stock.
    Any thoughts ?

    Good question Lenny. Fillies and mares from good families always makes sense as for geldings - maybe it is a bit like our NZ scenario in that where they are going to race where they will be very competitive and the price compares very favourably

    Harness Racing: Levy Series, Meadowlands Horse Shortage

    Might be that the Australian $ against the US $ and the shortage of ready to race horses in the US have restored US owners to the market.
    It lapsed for quiet a while while our $ was high, but it looks like the market has opened up again
