Ahuh. In recent years you guys haven't exactly covered yourselves in glory 'good judge' wise Viv. Your Countrymen rushed Elsu and also wrote off Courage Under Fire after 2 crops. Also bred substantial numbers of mares to Red River Hanover, Caprock, Andrel etc. How many of your own mares did you get in foal to AR?
Was going early on but in the end left the mares in the paddock for a year and went and brought a weanling in stead. They are so cheap here at the moment. Have a look at next weeks weanlings in the all aged sale in Auckland.There will be heaps of cheapies, believe me. Like your list of Nevele R sires baring Elsu of course.. I have plenty more of their's to add if you want. They are finally starting to get involved with quality again with the likes of A Rock N Roll Dance but the last few years have certainly being dismal.
If a son of SBSW were to stand in NSW this season would you send a mare to him?
What an unbelievable mark Sportswriter is making as a sire in Canada.
On Monday, three Ontario Sires Stakes divisions were run for 2YO colts. Sportswriter provided all three winners as well as the quinella in one of the races.
Today, three filies divisions were run. Sportswriter improved on the previous effort, this time providing the three winners, the three second placegetters and two of the third placegetters.
Incredible !!!
I couldn't answer that question without knowing the individual horse and the service fee.
If it was Captaintreacherous for example and the fee was reasonable, the answer would be "yes".
At this point in time, I would suggest that being a son of SBSW would not be a selling point.
Hi Trevor,
The horses dam is shared by one of last years leading 2 yr old sires and top 2 at present 3 yr old sires in the States, Well Said.
