STALLION'S 10/11 season n.z

[Flashing Red]

Hi Flashing Red

In the season just passed he served 49 mare's in n.z and not sure if and how many in Aus.

Thanks

In humans at least untrained people with slow/low heart rates = bad. They call it bradycardia and you will have lessened blood supply and actually find it harder to exercise.

Never heard of that, thanks and I'll keep it in mind! I'm sure there is nothing wrong with the filly... I know a lot of trainers take heart rates as some sort of early guide to ability. She doesn't find it hard to exercise at all, she's a little firecracker!!

Courage Under Fire,

This little champ reportedly had a very low resting heart rate. They compared him to the New Zealnd middle distance runner John Walker. I guess if the heart is powerful in circulating the blood that it would not to beat as often ?

yes thats the idea LOC, but the idea is it can be low for reasons other than having a strong heart or being fit...

Hi Buster

Alabar own him which would allow them to deal a bit more compared to say Art Major who you can only get 10% off and in Art Major's defence Alabar stated before the start of the breeding season that he would only be serving 150 plus returns.

I dont know what to think of the numbers Mango in some way at the top you expect those numbers but when you get just past halfway down I dont know if these are poor numbers or have they done well with poor prices, maketing or timming with the glutten of very good stallions at good prices on the market.

Hi Nat

It will be interesting to see how many mare's were served compared to the last say 10 yrs this could be why the stallions half way down the list have missed out on the extra numbers. They tell me breeding was down but to what extent i'm not sure and n.z was at it's lowest in 10 yrs they were averaging 4200 a year over 10 yrs and this year they served 3500 mare's.
