Family Ties - Well Related GGs Going Around

[Messenger]

I think these kind of posts often end up in Odds and Ends so I thought I might try giving them their own thread. Quite often they can be covered in the 2yo thread but sometimes it is not a 2yo that you want to highlight such as tonight in Race 4 at Echuca.

Guaranteed's half sis Bettes Rose from champion Jadah Rose made her debut in the 3yo
and finished a fairly creditable 2nd behind Christmas Jolt

[Richard prior]

Another winner last night at Echuca has some great family ties Kev, Secret Agenda won her 1st race, She's out of the terrific producer Secret Life and a 1/2 sister to Beauty Secret and Major Secret, The Gleeson's and Cameron's have been blessed with this family that just keeps producing nice horses.

[Messenger]

I missed that one Rich. I always thought that Vanderley was going to be something special from that brood but he has disappointed really

[FINEST]

Amazing fact about terrific producer Secret Life is she is out of a mare called Lifeline, a horse who
could only be described as a " walking machine " who used to get lapped at home and never got to the races.

Do you think Lifeline may have had the ability but was never interested in showing it Amanda? Her line of Larrakeyah is probably the strongest and was the golden cross
You no doubt appreciate this wonderful family with your listed horses all from the closely related 'Finest'. I notice she was also an unraced mare - what was her story Finest/Amanda?

[FINEST]

Hi Kev ,Finest had some ability but was only small and a terrible knee knocker ,so was
sent to the breeding barn very early ,as for Lifeline we gave her every chance so if as you
say she was not interested, she probably was never going to get interested.

First start for 3yo Keep On Rocking in R.7 at Ballarat tonight (9pm)
Apparently he has trialled well and could be favourite
He is only the 2nd named foal of Golden Flyin NZ

The Angelique Cup

Machkori is having her first start in the 2yo at Horsham today
Her dam Protikori was a $200k winner with multiple Gp1 placings
and Protikori's half bro is Caribbean Blaster

You would think you could not go wrong with a broodmare like Protokori, she only raced for 3 seasons and retired early winning 5/6 in her final 4yo season but she has proved difficult in the breeding barn and now 13yo - Machkori is only her second foal to get to the races (she has a weanling too)

There is an interesting first starter (or two) in R1 the 2yo at Kilmore tonight

Emerging Talent = American Ideal x Hectic

Hectic (NZ name Shezagolddigger) who raced in Aus (apart from 2 NZ starts) was a good mare who won 3 in town and nearly got to $100k thanks to 14 wins

Hectic = I Am A Fool x Alldatglittersisgold

I Am A Fool only had the 2004-5 season in NZ (served 91 but only 54% return) with Hectic being about as good as he threw (he did have one US millionaire) but why Emerging Talent gets a gig in this thread is that 2nd dam of hers - the matriarch of the Bling dynasty

Any idea what John Caldow was doing on Beltane? Was going to get to leaders wheel very easily but restrains for no reason and loses 10m only to come 3 wide a few hundred metres later. Cost him 3rd spot. Someone who had a trifecta would be furious :mad: :( :p

The first race at Kilmore tonight may produce a few winners

On his Australian debut The Kiwi Way has won in 1.55.4 in a mere C0 (quick at this Tk where Bitobliss holds the Rec at 1.53.4)
It was the 4yo's 3rd win from only his 7th start
He had a dream run behind the leader so the 2nd and 3rd horses who did a lot of work were impressive (even the 4th horse should add to his solitary win but he did have the 1x1)

The Kiwi Way's dam Kiwi Ingenuity ran 4th in a Miracle Mile

I can see some genuine positives in WA harness racing . Good racing at a true Metro venue , some nice horses coming through and excellent prizemoney . Also their breeding industry is moving forward with their own APG Sale and Studs starting up and investing in Stallions and well bred mares/ fillies. Their appears to be confidence in the industry with investment in long term breeding ventures and the purchase of top NZ racehorses.

I found time to have a much closer look at Raging Bull NZ. He has not produced any quicker than Our Bare Knuckles but Raging Bull certainly had some credentials to try him as a sire

As Trev mentioned he only had 10 starts - two at 2yo, six at 3yo, two at 4yo. He won 5 and came second in the other 5. He came 2nd to Smolda three times and at his last start he finished 2nd to Christen Me

Rich, Classic Families reveals his dam San Sophia USA, is a half sister to Champion mare Galleria - US 3yo filly of the yr in 98 and US Mare of the yr in 99

We will have to wait a while to see if Raging Bull is to catch on as next yrs crop is tiny but he could have a dozen starters in each of the following 2 seasons

[alphastud]

Raging Bull is a chance to be offered in Aus this season.

He sired an impressive filly named Pamplona Princess that placed 2nd in a trial at Chertsey in NZ in early Jan. Mile Rate: 1-56.6 Last 800m: 55.7 Last 400m: 26.7

I saw this story on Max Delight

http://www.harnesslink.com/Australia/Max-delights-owner-with-Slipper-win

I was stunned at his price (clearly I cannot even remember recent sales :eek:) and figured he must be just about the most expensive Aus yearling of all time so I looked up the table toppers

http://www.harness.org.au/ausbreed/ys_20k17.pdf

He is
It would seem like the top 2 lots were the result of auction fever
At this point in time it would seem that only a few of the 33 $100k+ have paid their way

The pdf is not up to date (names, starts etc) - it would seem that it is only updated Aug 31 of each year which is a little strange as that is a long time to wait to include last year's sales

Anybody from HRA reading?

Sitting parked and running 1.55.8 at Shep as a 2yo (although in NZ she would have been a 3yo for a month now)
It was big improvement from the 2nd placed Upright, I am sure they would have expected to win running those times
The track might be fast tonight as in R5 stablemate 3yo Amelia Rose ran 1.53.8. Hesty who ran second would have gone 1.54 which is a good 4 secs faster than he has run this trip at Shep before

I was very happy with Ladies In Red tonight, sitting outside the leader and winning well. If she’s half as good as Our Little General she will be a champ. She gets her name from the red string worn of the left wrist of the female followers of the Jewish Kabbalah religion . Her dam was named after one of the prominent followers.

Very well bred filly, her dam has already left Flaming Flutter. Her dam Twice as Hot, by In the Pocket, is a 3//4 sister to Goodlooking Girl (Christian Cullen - also by In the Pocket). This makes Fianna an extremely close relation to Jean Feiss' former outstanding filly Elle Mac, both being by Bettors Delight. Ability aside, they are at the opposite ends of the size scale, Elle having her name because she reminded her breeder's of a certain supermodel.

Speaking of Jean, tonight she again reminded everyone she is the greatest judge of yearlings in a he Southern Hemisphere. Probably ever! True Fantasy came from last on the turn on a bog track to win the group 1 Caduceus Club Classic at Alexandra Park tonight. The filly became her 4th winner of the race in 6 years. Her previous winners were Spanish Armada ($787k in stake earnings) in 2016, Elle Mac ($611k) in 2017, Amazing Dream ($890k before her sale) in 2019 were all yearling sale purchases. Ruby Rose finished 6th in 2018, her only miss in this race. No doubt all of them will boost the broodmare ranks, the first two already have had foals.

Her horses seem to love Alexandra Park, with Vincent (2017), Self Assured (2019), yearling purchases in NSW and NZ, and Amazing Dream (2020) all won Auckland Cups and her only starters in the race. Remarkable success.
