Where are the 2yo's ?

[arlington]

Is there any interest, value, in a thread posting impressive 2yo winners sired by moderately priced stallions?

Here's a couple from Vic recently.

Cobram 19 April 2018, LOCHINVAR ART 1.56.9 Sire Modern Art http://www.harness.org.au/racing/fie...18#COC19041808

Horsham 22 April 2018, IM SIR BLAKE 1.55.9 Sire ALTA CHRISTIANO http://www.harness.org.au/racing/fie...18#HSC22041807

Hi Wayne, what's your cut-off price?

G'day Richard,


Good question, what do others think? I haven't looked up Sportswriter or RWJ, but maybe modestly priced might have been better? Up to $5000?

[Richard prior]

Alta Christiano would be worth a bit of consideration after seeing that winner he left Wayne and I’m sure he’d be reasonably priced, He had a heap of ability that we never really seen and is from a terrific family, There really seems to be some nicely priced options outside the big boys

[gutwagon]

With Christian Cullen being such a successful stallion you would expect some of his sons to be decent sires. Maybe Alto Christiano could be the one ! None of the others have really stood out yet. It will be good for the industry if the In The Pocket/Direct Scooter line can continue on with a few options.

[Richard prior]

Would be very timely Rick, Mach Three and SBSW are no longer with us and that in itself was a massive double blow to breeders, The Direct Scooter blood is real speed stuff and hopefully we can get 1 or 2 of these sons of CC and SBSW to stand up very quickly, It would be a godsend for breeders

All the 2yo's are at Bendigo tonight with 7 heats of the Vicbred and a 2yo trot

Emma Stewart won 3 of the Vicbred Super Series heats for the 2yo fillies at Bendigo tonight AND it should have been All 4 as 2nd placed Tiger Storm locked wheels and dragged the winner over the line (protest not upheld)

She has also won a colts heat, come 2nd in another and will be winning the 3rd and last heat
So overall she will have won 5 of the 7 heats, run 2nd in the other 2 (plus a Quinella or two)
