ALMANDIN wins Cup

(Blue Gum Farm), Crackerjack King (IRE) (Wyndholm Park), Caulfield Cup-Gr.1 runner-up Dandino (GB) (Bombora Downs), along with Gr.2 winner and Gr.1 second Puissance de Lune (IRE) (Swettenham). Our leading trainers are now regular visitors to tried horse sales in Europe in search of Cups material and the latest Tattersalls Horses in Training Sale at Newmarket in October saw the top priced lot, Listed winner Harlem (Champs Elysees), make 520,000 guineas to a client of the Hayes/Dabernig stable, the highest price paid at the sale since 2010. Chris Waller purchased 10 lots including 180,000 guineas buy Exoteric (Champs Elysees) and 70,000 guineas buy Great Glen (High Chaparral (IRE)), while Gai Waterhouse and co-trainer Adrian Bott bought the top lot on day one, the London Gold Cup-winning three year-old Paco Boy (IRE) colt Imperial Aviator for 270,000 guineas and also paid 70,000 guineas for Goodwood Zodiac (Kodiac). Watch out for them on the track. n

Almandin (GER) (Monsun-Antola by Tiger Hill (IRE))

2017 yearling sales ready for takeoff

LMANDIN’S win in the $6.2m Melbourne CupGr.1 (3200m) at Flemington was remarkable on so many levels, not the least being that he provided part owner Lloyd Williams with his fifth winner of the race that stops our nation. He also provided his sire Monsun with his third winner in four years, following Fiorente (IRE) and Protectionist (GER), in a 24-runner field where only one starter was home-bred, three bred in NZ and the remainder foaled in the northern hemisphere, although nine are still trained there.

The lone Aussie, Caulfield Cup-Gr.1 heroine Jameka (Myboycharlie (IRE)), was 15th and the closest of the southern breds was Who Shot Thebarman (NZ) (Yamamin Vital), beaten 6.9 lengths into fifth. The first two, Almandin (GER) and Heartbreak City (FR) (Lando (GER)), staged a great duel in the final stages before the former prevailed by a long head in 3:20.58 to claim the winner’s purse of $3.6m, with Cox Plate runner-up Hartnell (GB) (Authorized (IRE)) 4.5 lengths back in third in front of 97,479 on course patrons.

It was a training triumph for Robert Hickmott as Almandin had been off the track for two years with a tendon injury when he had his first Australian start in June and the Cup win was his third in succession in seven local starts. It was the second winner for Williams’ private trainer Hickmott after Green Moon (IRE) won for that owner in 2012 and the second for jockey Kerrin McEvoy who rode Brew (NZ) in 2000. Williams, who had an interest in four of the runners, three of them trained by Hickmott, first won the Cup with Just a Dash (Whiskey Road (USA)) in 1981, then What a Nuisance (NZ) (St Puckle (GB)) in 1985, Efficient (NZ) (Zabeel) in 2007, Green Moon (Montjeu (IRE)), who is at stud in Ireland, and now Almandin. The Victorian industry has been a major beneficiary of the rush to bring northern-bred stayers to Australia with many of the imports doing stud duty in that state on retirement, including Cup winners Fiorente (Sun Stud), Americain (USA) (shuttles to Swettenham) and Cup third Lucas Cranach (GER) (Bullarook Park). Others include Gr.1 winners Glass Harmonium (IRE)

ast season’s emphatic success from graduates of Karaka was a timely reminder of the next generation of talent represented by the 1347 yearlings catalogued for Karaka 2017. Last season 15 individual Gr.1-winning graduates of NZB’s National Yearling Sales Series captured 20 Gr.1 events. These Karaka alumni won some of the most coveted races in Australasia, the Melbourne Cup, Emirates Stakes, Queen Elizabeth Stakes, Victorian Derby, Australian Derby and Australian Oaks. The National Yearling Sales Series has been the source of 82 Gr.1 wins in the past four seasons, the most of any auction house in Australasia.

The action kicks off with the 10th anniversary celebrations of the $1m Karaka Million, the feature race of the Karaka Million Twilight Meeting, New Zealand’s richest race day, at Ellerslie Racecourse. Held on the eve of the Premier Sale, this twilight racing event of the year is an opportunity for NZB to welcome bloodstock buyers, owners and enthusiasts from around the world to Karaka 2017’s thoroughbred yearling showcase. The first yearling will go through the Karaka sale ring at 10am on Monday, January 30, launching an actionpacked six days of selling with the Premier, Select and Festival Sales comprising the Karaka 2017 line-up. The Premier Sale presents the very best the New Zealand industry has to offer. The centrepiece of the week, it features some of the world’s finest pedigrees and the progeny of a host of global powerhouse sires. In 2016 the Premier Sale featured the first yearling by the legendary Frankel to be sold at auction in the southern hemisphere, with the colt topping the sale at $1.3m. There are 465 yearlings entered for the Karaka 2017 Premier Sale, including another son of Frankel. The sale will be conducted on Monday and Tuesday, January 30-31.

The Select Sale has become an elite session in its own right, the source of this season’s New Zealand 2000 Guineas-Gr.1 winner Ugo Foscolo (NZ) (Zacinto), along with dual New Zealand Horse of the Year Mongolian Khan (Holy Roman Emperor). It produced a total of five Gr.1 winners last season, including Victoria Derby winner Tarzino (NZ) (Tavistock) and New Zealand Bloodstock Filly of the Year and Australian Oaks heroine Sofia Rosa (NZ) (Makfi). This year’s Select Sale has 640 yearlings catalogued and will run from Wednesday to Friday, February 1-3. The Festival Sale has produced the likes of Gr.1 winners Gaultier (NZ) (Rios) and Iamishwara (NZ) (Keeninsky) in recent seasons, with Gaultier going on to perform successfully in Hong Kong under the name Simply Invincible. There are 240 yearlings catalogued for this year’s Festival Sale, which will be held on Sunday, February 5. The Premier Sale boasts a catalogue stacked with worldclass pedigrees. It features siblings to 133 stakes winners and the progeny of 91 stakes-winning mares. The National Yearling Sales Series offers an extensive selection of sires, both proven and young stallions, from across the world. There are 127 sires represented in the catalogue, including 14 first season sires. While the pedigree pages are compelling, there are other factors contributing to the appeal of kiwi thoroughbreds. Grown on New Zealand’s rolling hills and lush pasture, turned out year-round in the temperate climate and nurtured by expert horsemen and women, this ultimate thoroughbred environment has proven time and again to produce the ultimate thoroughbred horse. The stage has been set for Karaka 2017 with this next generation of thoroughbreds poised to step out in January. The team at New Zealand Bloodstock keenly awaits your arrival at Karaka where first-class horses are presented alongside our unique brand of hospitality and service. Join us at Karaka 2017 to begin your winning journey. l

KARAKA

PACKED WITH POTENTIAL NZB’s National Yearling Sales Series continues to live up to its reputation for producing world-beating thoroughbreds. The past season’s success making a compelling case for why the youngsters on offer at the fast-approaching Karaka 2017 warrant a closer look.

ast season’s flurry of Gr.1-winning New Zealand thoroughbreds is a potent reminder of the calibre of bloodstock to be found at Karaka. Kiwi thoroughbreds won 25% of the Gr.1 races in Australia last season, yet they make up only 5.4% of the racehorse population. The Carnivals, the Cups, the Derbys, the Classics and the Miles were all impacted by the kiwis, further enhancing a reputation for delivering results in the races that count. The primary source of these gutsy athletes is Karaka, with 20 Gr.1 races won by 15 individual Gr.1-winning graduates of the National Yearling Sales Series last season. Mongolian Khan (Holy Roman Emperor) led the charge at the Melbourne Spring Carnival with the Select Sale graduate and dual Derby winner taking out the 2015 Caulfield Cup-Gr.1. He was swiftly followed by fellow Select Sale graduate Tarzino (NZ) (Tavistock) who swept to victory in the Victoria Derby-Gr.1 at Flemington. NZB Ready to Run Sale graduate Turn Me Loose (NZ) (Iffraaj) then won the Emirates Stakes-Gr.1 a week later.

year running. They have now won half of the Gr.1 races at The Championships to date and Karaka graduates have won the most Gr.1 races at The Championships of any sales company.

Sale graduate Provocative (NZ) (Zabeel) put in a dominant display to win the Queensland Oaks-Gr.1, the fifth win by a kiwi filly in the past seven editions of the race.

Brave mare Lucia Valentina (NZ) (Savabeel) won the richest weight for age race in Australia, the Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1, making it four wins from the past five for New Zealand thoroughbreds. Also sporting the colours of JML Bloodstock, Select Sale graduate Sofia Rosa (NZ) (Makfi) made it a day to remember for owner Lib Petangna when she took out the Australian Oaks-Gr.1, making it three in a row for kiwi fillies.

Fellow Premier Sale graduate Sacred Elixir (NZ) (Pour Moi) also shone in Queensland, sweeping to victory in the J.J. Atkins Stakes-Gr.1 with a compelling mile performance, while Select Sale graduate Music Magnate (NZ) (Written Tycoon) won at Gr.1 level over a shorter distance in the Doomben 10,000.

Another son of Tavistock, Tavago (NZ), gave New Zealand its third Australian Derby-Gr.1 win in four years when he scorched to victory for trainers Trent Busuttin and Natalie Young. Highlighting the value to be found at Karaka, these three National Yearling Sales Series graduates collectively won more than $A4.5m in prize money at The Championships yet combined they cost only $NZ185,000.

Premier Sale graduate Prince of Penzance (NZ) (Pentire) provided the ultimate flourish to the carnival for NZB when he created history at Flemington with victory in the 2015 Melbourne Cup-Gr.1. In total, Karaka alumni took home prize money of $A7,215,000 from the Melbourne Spring Carnival, at an average purchase price of $NZ91,875 these graduates won 20 times their combined purchase price from four Spring Carnival races alone.

In a display of staying prowess, New Zealand bred or sold thoroughbreds have won half of all Gr.1 Derbys in Australia in the past six seasons, including eight of the past 10 Australian Derbys and seven of the last 11 Victoria Derbys. It’s not just the Derbys where NZ three year-olds have excelled, Tarzino backed up his Victoria Derby win with victory in the 2016 Rosehill Guineas-Gr.1, a race where New Zealand horses have now won seven of the past eight editions.

But the Karaka juggernaut didn’t stop at spring. Sydney’s premier two-day carnival, The Championships, saw New Zealand horses storming to four Gr.1 wins for the third

In fact, NZ bred or sold three year-olds have won 32% of Australian 3YO Gr.1 races in the past six seasons. This figure was boosted at the Brisbane Carnival when Premier

Up in Asia, Premier Sale graduate Aerovelocity (NZ) (Pins) spearheaded another strong season. The sprinting sensation continued his form with a win in the Centenary Cup Sprint, following from the previous season’s Gr.1 treble in the Hong Kong Sprint, Takamatsunomiya Kinen and Krisflyer International Sprint. He has now won $NZ5,757,769, which is 48 times his purchase price of $NZ120,000. In what was a phenomenal season for hot young sire Tavistock, another of his sons, Werther (NZ), was crowned Hong Kong Horse of the Year off the back of his Hong Kong Derby and HKJC Queen Elizabeth II CupGr.1 wins. Making it a Derby double in Asia for New Zealand horses, Select Sale graduate Well Done (NZ) (Falkirk) won the Singapore Derby ahead of Debt Collector (NZ) (Thorn Park), also a Select Sale graduate, who has since gone on to win two legs of the Singapore Triple Crown. Karaka 2017’s action-packed six days of selling commences at Karaka with the Premier Sale on January 30 & 31, the Select Sale on February 1-3, and the one-day Festival Sale on February 5.l

KARAKA

FIRST YEARLINGS BY GUINEAS HERO

FERLAX ONE of the highlights of the upcoming Karaka yearling sale series will be the appearance of members of the debut crop of Haunui Farm's high-class galloper Ferlax. A particularly handsome son of Pentire, Ferlax won four of his nine starts and was seen at his best recording a dominant all the way victory in the Australian Guineas-Gr.1 (1600m), at Flemington. another of Loved One, a half-brother to their dam Canterbury Pilgrim. Pentire's pedigree is saturated with this family, one that descends from the 1788 mare Prunella. And it is interesting to note he has enjoyed considerable success with mares also carrying multiple strains. He has fared particularly well with the Marchetta and Chelandry branches of this family and Century is a stallion with strains of both. Pentire's two best sons, Xcellent and Xtravagant, have Century strains and this combination has a 7.2% stakes winner ratio compared to Pentire's overall strike rate of 4.3%. With his strain of Sayani, half-brother to Century's grandsire My Babu, Ferlax looks nicely suited by Century strains, with mares by Centaine and Centro (whose third dam Wiles is also third dam of Marscay) of special interest as both are dam sires of stakes winners by Pentire. In regards to Chelandry, she is ancestress of High Chaparral who, out of a Pentire mare, sired the multiple Gr.1 winner Shoot Out. Daughters of High Chaparral are a most interesting match for Ferlax with Pentire's third dam Haridemma, also dam of Shirley Heights, grandsire of High Chaparralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dam. High Chaparral carries a strain of Norseman whose close relation Wilkes is sire of Ferlax's fourth dam Skylit. Mill Reef is also duplicated with such a match and it is worth noting that Pentire fares well with his cross as four of his stakes winners are bred in this way.

hat was his fourth win from as many starts and he was highly competitive when taking on the older horses at weight-for-age level, finishing second to Atlantic Jewel in the Memsie Stakes-Gr.1 (1400m), beating home the likes of Super Cool, Dundeel, Green Moon, Fiorente, Happy Trails, Silent Achiever and Mufhasa. Ferlax is well represented at Karaka, including three yearlings in the Premier Session; a filly out of the More Than Ready mare Forever Hailey (daughter of stakes winner Diamond Hailey), a colt out of the citywinning Thorn Park mare Gondola Girl (half-sister to Show a Heart) and a half-brother to the promising Rare Occurrence. At the Select Session there are another 14 by Ferlax to choose from, including a half-sister to the Gr.2 winner Atlantis Dream, a half-brother to the Macau Horse of the Year Luck of Smiling, a half-sister to the Listed winner Longchamp and a half-brother to the Listed winner Atom Cat. The Festival Session sees another seven of Ferlax's sons and daughters head through the ring, all from good families. The pedigree of Ferlaxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outstanding sire Pentire (GB), sire of 677 winners (46SW) and winner of the Irish Champion Stakes-Gr.1 at three and King George VI and

Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes-Gr.1 at four, is an excellent one, his champion sire Be My Guest (Northern Dancer-What a Treat by Tudor Minstrel) was a talented miler, while his Gr.2-winning dam Gull Nook is by the legendary Mill Reef from Bempton, a daughter of Derby hero Blakeney. She is a three-quarter sister to dual Derby winner and leading sire Shirley Heights. Ferlax's dam, Legs Akimbo, is by the 1982 Golden Slipper Stakes-Gr.1 (1200m), winner and champion sire Marscay (Biscay) and from Listed winner and Gr.2 placed Leggings, by the Nijinsky horse Tights (USA) and tracing to famous NZ taproot mare Eulogy (GB). Third dam, the multiple winner Lanceanum (Oncidium (GB)), is a halfsister to NZ Oaks-Gr.1 winner Devante. This pedigree sees a number of strong influences, including Northern Dancer and Star Kingdom (IRE), who appear closer up than is the norm in this era. Ferlax is one of 146 stakes winners bred on a Northern Dancer/Marscay (or reverse) cross and one of Pentire's seven stakes winners (four Gr.1 winners) out of mares boasting a strain of Marscay's sire Biscay. Pentire's success with the Star Kingdom line is no surprise as Be My Guest has, relatively close up, multiple strains of that influential stallion's relations Chaucer and Swynford as well as

Meanwhile Pentire has had eight winners (including the Gr.1 gallopers Zarita and Markus Maximus) from nine runners out of mares with a Western Symphony strain. That stallion's second dam Milan Mill is the dam of Mill Reef. Pentire has also sired stakes winners out of mares carrying other strains of Mill Reef's family, that descending from Black Ray; such as Blushing Groom and Pipe of Peace. Zarita is also line-bred to the excellent broodmare Netherton Maid, whose St Leger-Gr.1-winning grandson Hethersett is the sire of Blakeney, sire of Pentire's second dam. Netherton Maid is also the dam of Pirate King, sire of the second dam of Pins. Surprisingly, there have been only eight named foals with a Pentire/Pins combination. Seven of those have raced and six are winners. One of four Gr.1 winners for Pentire out of mares with a Nijinsky II strain, Ferlax is 3mx5m Northern Dancer. Further strains of that great stallion are always desirable and Pentire has fared well with Nureyev, Sadler's Wells, Try My Best and Northfields. Ferlax is a descendant of the acclaimed matriarch Eulogy and it is worth seeking further strains. Look for her in mares carrying lines of Plush, Zephyr Bay, Elounda Bay or Red Tempo, noting too that Elvstroem, Haradasun and Starspangledbanner are also descendants. Three of Pentire's best stayers, Prince of Penzance, Zarita and Pentastic are out of Mr. Prospector line mares and he boasts an excellent strike rate with Zabeel, as does Ferlax's dam sire Marscay. Pentire has also sired stakes winners out of mares by fellow Sir Tristram (IRE) stallions Kaapstad and Grosvenor. l

SIMMS DAVISON MAPPERLEY STUD has a great reputation for raising thoroughbreds, So You Think and Dundeel are prime examples, and now Simms Davison, the third generation of his family at the helm of this operation, is heading in a new direction by standing three high-class young sires at the Matamata property. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a challenge the former star rugby player is relishing and he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to see the results.

TANDING 1.85m and weighing in at 115kg Mapperley Stud principal Simms Davison is a very powerful unit. This physique combined with his athleticism enabled Simms to excel at playing rugby, as a prop, at the highest level. By the time his body gave out 12 months into a two year contract with French club Clermont Auvergne the game had virtually assured his financial security. Simms was also fortunate to have a fall back position running the family’s breeding operation, which had been established nearly half-a-century earlier by his grandparents. The management of Mapperley had been handed down to their son Mark, who controlled the property until Simms took over from his father six years ago. Since the turn of the century luminaries such as High Chaparral ’s sons So You Think, a 10-time Gr.1 winner and now Coolmore stallion and the six-time Gr.1 winner and Arrowfield sire Dundeel are among those reared on its undulating green pastures. So are the likes of AJC Australian Derby-Gr.1 winner Nom du Jeu, now a sire himself, triple Gr.1 winner Sangster, the gutsy warrior Sir Slick, who won six Gr.1s, AuRC Easter Handicap-Gr.1 winner Prince Kaapstad and Singapore Derby-SINGr.1 hero Clint. While this list, and there are many others, is testimony to Mapperley’s proclivity for growing out young horses, Simms has taken the stud back to the days of having a stallion roster. “When I first took over, the farm was all client based and used mainly for rearing young horses, preparing them for the sales and agisting dry mares,” he said. “While we are still very much an agistment farm I’ve been building up my broodmare numbers and I’ve got a nice lot of young mares who are mostly stakes placed or stakes performed. A lot of them only have two or three foals on the ground, so we are still waiting to find out whether they are any good.” Most notable amongst his holdings so far is the Thunder Gulch (USA) mare Thunderchine, whose foals include Thunder Lady. Trained by John Sergeant Thunder Lady won the VRC Wakeful Stakes-Gr.2 and was second in the VRC Crown Oaks-Gr.1 and third in the ATC Storm Queen Stakes-Gr.1. “I felt the next step for me after building up my broodmare band was to begin standing stallions,” Simms said. This new phase in Mapperley’s history began in 2013 when he secured He’s Remarkable. In 2015 that Group-winning son of Pentire was joined by Gr.1 winner Atlante (AUS) (Fastnet Rock), while this year two further Gr.1 winners, Contributer (IRE) (High Chaparral (IRE)) and Complacent (AUS) (Authorized (IRE)), who raced in the Godolphin blue, were added. Atlante was sadly lost in a paddock accident in early December. “We are not only standing stallions at Mapperley, we are also buying shares in other stallions. In that way we are supporting other studs and I think that is very important as well.” Simms is also well aware of the responsibilities he has to the Davison family’s legacy. “It’s been great to come back to such a beautiful, beautiful property like Mapperley, which has produced so many great horses,” he said. “I was very fortunate to be given the unique opportunity to come home, take over the farm and be able to put my own signature on the place. “My father was quick to remind me that I am the third generation of stud masters at Mapperley. The farm has

been handed down from my grandparents to my father and to me and hopefully in the years to come I can do the same.” John and Doreen Davison founded Mapperley Stud in 1964 on the lush pastures of Matamata in the Waikato region of the north island. With Doreen having been born in England, the Davisons were regular visitors to the old country and generally returned to New Zealand with a mare or two when running a property on the South Island. This practice intensified once they moved north and their astute judgment brought success. Among the notable mares they imported were Some Swallow (GB) by My Swallow (GB), Petwood (GB) by Petingo (GB) and Super Show (GB) by Great Nephew (GB). When mated with Sound Reason (GB), Some Swallow produced Gr.3 winner Some Reason, who in turn was responsible for AuRC New Zealand Derby-Gr.1 winner So Casual, who was by Casual Lies (USA). To a joining with Long Row (GB) Petwood foaled WATC Railway Stakes-Gr.1 and BATC Rothmans 100,000-Gr.1 winner Getting Closer, while the mating of Star Way (GB) and Super Show resulted in (Our) Waverley Star. A winner of the AJC Chipping Norton Stakes-Gr.1, Waverley Star was involved in one of the most memorable renewals ever in the MVRC Cox PlateGr.1 in 1986 when he went down narrowly to Bonecrusher after they singled out from their rivals 700m from home. As the Davisons were aging their sons Mark and Kit began running the farm, which then spread over some 526ha (1300 acres). With Mark and Kit being young and enthusiastic, they began standing stallions at Mapperley, beginning with Long Row, who was a Gr. 2 winner at Newbury by Linacre. As the 1970s were moving into the 80s the multiple Gr.1-winning Godavari (IRE) horse Little Brown Jug and the New Zealand Derby and STC Canterbury Guineas-Gr.1 winner Ring The Bell, by Rangong (GB), were added to the roster. Then in 1990 the property was split, with Mark “taking the front portion and Kit taking the back part”. “A number of other stallions, including Piperhill, Chem and Piazzetta also stood at Mapperley, which led through to Straussbrook, Stylish Century and then Volksraad came here in the 1990s,” Simms said. A winner at Ascot by Green Desert, Volksraad (GB), who began standing in 1994 and died in 2011, sired 640 winners, with 14 of the highly successful sire’s 57 stakes winners scoring at the elite level. Foremost among them was Sir Slick, from the Paris Opera mare Miss Opera. He was bred by Monovale Farm and was sold for $NZ$48,000 from the Mapperley Stud draft at Karaka in 2003. He went on to win $NZ2 million in prize money and was New Zealand Champion Middle Distance Horse of the Year in 2007. During the years Sir Slick was racing Simms was deeply immersed in playing rugby full time. As he was growing up Simms, who was born in June 1979, had always been busy helping around the farm, “working like a slave,” as he puts it. That began to change, however, when he was “shipped away” to boarding school at King’s College in Auckland as a 13 year-old. “During the years I was at boarding school I’d still help on the farm during summer holidays and that sort of thing,” he said. On leaving King’s College Simms went to Otago University where he undertook a Bachelor of Commerce

degree, majoring in marketing and management. “I had played rugby all the way through school and that had become a main driver for me while I was at university. After playing all my age group rugby I started playing as a professional for the Waikato Chiefs in 2002. “It was full-time because I played Super Rugby for the Chiefs for half the year and then provincial rugby for the Bay of Plenty in the other six months. I really enjoyed my last few years with the Chiefs, when I was playing weekly and was playing good rugby. “It was absolutely fantastic because I was being paid well for something I’d have done for absolutely free. It enabled me to get some money behind me before I came into the horse business. Even though I came into the game rather late, after having time off to play rugby, it gave me some security as far as going out and buying horses was concerned, which was great.” Among his highlights playing in the black, red and yellow jersey of the Chiefs was the 18 points to five win over the Crusaders before a packed house at the Waikato Stadium in 2008. A report from the clash, which was played in a “Test match” atmosphere, was headed “Simms Davison and the Chiefs shut down the Crusaders.” He also played in a Ranfurly Shield premiershipwinning side with the Bay of Plenty. After completing the 2008 season with the Chiefs Simms signed a contract with Clermont-Ferrand, which is in the top bracket of French rugby teams and is sponsored by Michelin. “Time was starting to tick away, my family had been waiting for me to finish my rugby and come home to start running the farm. I was meant to stay with ClermontFerrand for two years but I injured my back, which required surgery, so that was a good time to come home.” Although he was not able to be hands-on with the horses while concentrating on his rugby Simms says he was “very much into the racing side”. “I’d go and buy yearlings and would then race them with mates from Otago University or from rugby. That’s when I started putting together my own broodmare band.” Among his purchases was a filly by Danasinga from the Siege Perilous mare My Amazing Grace. Bought for $NZ50,000 at the Karaka sales, she went on to capture the Waikato RC Sir Tristram Fillies Classic-Gr.2 in 2008 racing as Due Diligence. The following year Simms returned to New Zealand. During the time Simms was playing rugby Mark had decided that Mapperley should join forces with Nelson Schick and his Windsor Park Stud. “My father and Nelson had been friends for a very long time, were business partners and owned a number of farms together,” he said. “The two places were being run as one operation with the stallions at Windsor Park and Mapperley being basically used for agistment. “It made sense because Mapperley is a lovely big property of about 600 acres (243ha) where young horses thrive. So the horses were grown out on the farm and, apart from a couple of years, went to the yearling sales with the Mapperley brand on them.” As a result of this connection Simms spent the 2009 breeding season at Windsor Park before taking over Mapperley from his father, who had returned to the South Island high country to farm. Simms subsequently decided to strike out on his own and the partnership with Windsor Park was ended.

KARAKA

PERSONALITY PROFILE Simms Davison

Contributer (IRE) “The partnership with Windsor was very successful but it was important to me on coming home to identify Mapperley independently and to be able to row my own boat,” he said. During 2013 Simms and his charming wife Margaux had their first son Jack and they now have another son Max, who is one. “I met Margaux after a match in Auckland and we dated while I was playing rugby. She was in London at the same time I was France and I managed to drag her back to Matamata after that.” The year Jack was born Simms secured He’s Remarkable, who is by Pentire from the Zabeel mare Axiom, for stud duties in partnership with Waikato Stud. A Gr.3 winner and three-time Gr.1 placegetter, He’s Remarkable had been victorious in the 2011 WATC Railway Stakes-Gr.1 only to lose the race to Luckygray on protest. It was a decision which left racing fans completely bewildered. “I felt He’s Remarkable was a good sire to kick off with,” Simms said. “The horse was obviously very unlucky to be relegated in Australia but he was still highly performed, beautifully bred and very good looking. And his little brother Xtravagant has helped things along by winning two Gr.1 events.” The first yearlings by He’s Remarkable sold up to $NZ110,000 and are now racing as two year-olds this season. With everything working smoothly with He’s Remarkable, Simms decided to step up the pace

in the past two years by adding Atlante, Complacent and Contributer to Mapperley’s roster. Sadley, the Fastnet Rock Gr.1 winner Atlante passed away just prior to this issue going to press, but his first foals have already impressed good judges. Both the other two Mapperley young guns are multiple Gr.1 winners with world class pedigrees. A friendship with Darley and its Australian supremo Henry Plumptre, in particular, opened the way for Complacent and Contributer to stand at Mapperley. By the 2007 English Derby winner Authorized (IRE), Complacent is out of Insouciance, a daughter of the 1990 Derby winner Quest For Fame (GB). Complacent, whose triumphs featured the ATC Spring Champion Stakes-Gr.1 and Tattersalls Club (NSW) Chelmsford Stakes-Gr.2, also finished second to Polanski in the VRC Victoria Derby-Gr.1

(High Chaparral (IRE)-Serisia by Exit to Nowhere)

“Henry has always been a big advocate of New Zealand and I’d chat away to him at the sales,” Simms said. “I’d tried to buy another stallion from Darley, which didn’t get over the line, but they knew I was trying to move in the direction of having stallions. “It grew from there and when I knew Complacent had been retired I got on a plane and went over to Darley to look at him. I liked what I saw and the deal was done. Then, after Contributer was injured, Alastair Pulford and Andy Makiv, from Darley, were over in New Zealand and I was invited to dinner with them down the road from Mapperley. We virtually did that deal for him standing around in a kitchen over a few glasses of wine.

Contributer, who like Complacent was foaled in 2010, is by High Chaparral from the Gr.3-winning Exit to Nowhere mare Serisia, who has had five winners from six foals to race.

“Complacent is standing in a partnership between Mapperley and Darley, while Contributer is standing in a partnership between Mapperley, Darley and a group of New Zealand breeders. Contributer is a perfect fit for us after the huge success we have had with the progeny of High Chaparral, with both So You Think and Dundeel being raised and grazed on Mapperley.

A winner four times in England, two of them in Listed races, Contributer adapted quickly to the conditions “down under” with his successes in the ATC Chipping Norton Stakes-Gr.1, Rawson Stakes-Gr.1 and other races earning him the title of Champion Middle Distance Horse of Australia in 2014-15.

“Besides that Contributer was a racehorse of the highest calibre, a great mover, lovely looking and has a real presence about him. It’s very exciting to have three young boys in the roster with everything in front of them. I can hardly wait to see what unfolds over the next few years.” l

Multi-Strain Probiotic

Protexin

Get them off to a great start A study by NSW Agriculture confirms the lack of lactobacilli in the gut of foals and recommends the use of Protexin because of the importance of lactobacilli as an indicator of gut health. As a foal is born with a sterile gut it is quickly populated with beneficial and pathogenic bacteria from the environment. Protexin contains billions of naturally occurring and beneficial bacteria essential for intestinal good health. Protexin is recommended for at least the first 5 days to get your foal off to a healthy start.

OVERALL INCIDENCE OF FOAL DIARRHOEA 1988 - 1994

7 year Hunter Valley study with over 1600 foals by Rodger & Williams clearly demonstrates that at least 10% of foals will get scours in the 1st 5 days. It highlights the fact almost no foals scour on day 1, yet are susceptible to attack by pathogens especially in the first 5 days of life. This highlights the importance of using Protexin from day 1. During the first 60 days of life about 30% of all foals can be expected to scour.

RELIABLE MAN A SUPERB win in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1 at only his second Australian start had racegoers convinced Reliable Man (GB) would be a new star here. Sadly, injury forced his retirement and NZ’s Westbury Stud secured a wonderful addition to its roster. The stallion’s first crop juveniles this season are highlighting the wisdom of this move.

ESTBURY Stud general manager Russell Warwick was certainly heartened to see multiple Gr.1 winner Reliable Man (GB) get a 5.5 length juvenile trial winner over 800m in early October. For a horse who won the French Derby-Gr.1 and also raced away with the Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1 at Randwick it was a heartening sign indeed and points to a bright stud future for the handsome grey. “Not for one minute did we expect to see the progeny out and running over 800m as two yearolds, so it’s pleasing to see him have a trial winner and a runner in an early juvenile event,” Warwick said. It’s good news too for the buyers who paid up to $340,000 for his first southern yearlings in 2016. The gelded trial winner, who is unnamed, is from Wannabe Queen (by the Storm Cat son Bernstein) and is inbred 3fx3f to Sadler’s Wells

and trainer Jamie Graham has put the talented first crop youngster aside until later in the season. Reliable Man (Dalakhani (IRE)-On Fair Stage by Sadler’s Wells) won five of his 14 starts (10 in Gr.1 events) and $1.85m. Trained in France by Alain de Royer-Dupré, Reliable Man replicated the deeds of his sire Dalakhani and grandsire Darshaan when winning the Prix du Jockey ClubGr.1 (French Derby) over 2100m and was ranked one of the best three year-olds in Europe. Despite not recording a victory in his four year-old season, Reliable Man competed in the best of company throughout, finishing on the heels of the world's highest rated horse Cirrus des Aigles when third in the Prix Ganay-Gr.1 and chasing home headline acts Danedream, Nathaniel and St Nicholas Abbey when fourth

in an outstanding renewal of the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1 and was also fourth behind So You Think in the Prince of Wales’s Stakes-Gr.1. He also won the Prix Niel-Gr.2 (2400m) and was third in the Grand Prix de Paris-Gr.1 (2400m), both at Longchamp. He had a Timeform rating of 124 at three and four and a World Thoroughbred Ranking of 122 in 2011, 2012 and 2013. “To win a Derby at just his third lifetime start (he won his first two starts at 2000m at Chantilly and Saint-Cloud) is some feat, and with 10 of his 14 starts coming in Gr.1 races, Reliable Man never dodged a fight. He has strong form around the likes of Cirrus des Aigles, Danedream and So You Think,” Warwick said.

Transferred to champion trainer Chris Waller’s Sydney stable, Reliable Man made his Australian debut in the George Ryder Stakes-Gr.1 over 1500m against a stellar field, which included Pierro, (King) Mufhasa, Shoot Out, Manighar, Danleigh, Veyron, Happy Trails, Solzhenitsyn, Fontelina, and Rebel Dane. Not having raced for six months, the grey stallion settled well back in the running finished well for sixth and was just 1.5 lengths off the winner Pierro. “I have no doubt that had we had a longer preparation leading into his first Australian start, I believe he could have won the George Ryder Stakes first-up,” Waller said.

Mill Reef (USA) (Never Bend-Milan Mill by Princequillo)

A dominant 2.25 length victory followed at 2000m in the Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1 when downing star three year-old (It's A) Dundeel. Also among the beaten brigade were Gr.1 winners Happy Trails, Silent Achiever, Secret Admirer, Manighar and Glass Harmonium. Sadly, that was Reliable Man’s farewell performance with a tendon injury forcing his premature retirement. “He gave me an unbelievable feel in the Queen Elizabeth, and he is just all quality, possibly the best I have ridden," jockey Hugh Bowman said. The grey ran the fastest time for the 2000m race since 1997, running 2:01.80, faster than the likes of Might and Power, Lonhro, Desert War and More Joyous. He was quickly snapped up by Gerry Harvey on his retirement to stud and sent to Harvey’s showplace NZ stud Westbury, which comprises two properties, the 86ha (212 acre) stallion and yearling farm at Karaka, close to NZB’s outstanding auction facility, and 121ha (300 acres) of prime land in the Waikato, which is home to Harvey’s more than 180 NZ-based mares. Westbury is also home to Makfi (Dubawi), Swiss Ace (Secret Savings), Redwood (High Chaparral), El Roca (Fastnet Rock), Postponed (Summer Squall) and Red Giant (Giant’s Causeway). Reliable Man’s sire, Dalakhani (Darshaan-Daltawa by Miswaki), bred by the Aga Khan and recently retired from stud duty, was Horse of the Year and Champion Three Year-Old in Europe in 2003 when his wins included the Arc de Triomphe. He has sired 324 winners (58% of starters) of more than $36m and his 49 stakes winners (8.8%) include eight at Gr.1 level, notably the champion Conduit (Sadler’s Wells) whose seven wins included the Ascot King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes, the St Leger and Breeders’ Cup Turf (twice). He is also sire of Champion Older Female (UK) Integral (Danehill), winner of the Falmouth Stakes and Sun Chariot Stakes, Champion Older Female (IRE) Chinese White (Sadler’s Wells), German Gr.1 winners Seismos (Dashing Blade) and Second Step (Sadler’s Wells), St Leger winner Duncan (Danehill) and Irish Oaks winner Moonstone (Law Society) and of course Reliable Man. He also has Group winners out of mares by Barathea, Dynaformer (Guardini, a Gr.2 winner in Germany and Gr.3 winner in Australia), Generous, Rainbow Quest, Unfuwain, Lure, Diesis, Silver Hawk, Caerleon, Nishapour, Polar Falcon, Platini, Pivotal, Grindstone, Alzao and others by mares from the already mentioned Sadler’s Wells and Danehill. Dalakhani’s parents descend from mares acquired by the Aga Khan in the 1970s from the bloodstock dispersal of French textile magnate Marcel Boussac,

one of the great thoroughbred breeders of the 20th century and 19 times the Leading Owner in France and also Leading Owner in Britain in 1950 and 1951. The sire line, that of Mill Reef (Never BendNasrullah) is one that has been carefully nurtured by the Aga Khan and has proved particularly suited to all things Sadler’s Wells, as a glance at the pedigrees of Dalakhani’s Gr.1 stars reveals. “He has got to be the outstanding horse of his generation over all distances and all goings,” the Aga Khan said after the three year-old’s win in the Arc. “I have always said it is difficult to make comparisons between champions but Dalakhani, such a beautiful mover, has a concentration of unusual talent.” The Aga Khan-bred Darshaan (1981-2001), who won the 1984 French Derby from Sadler’s Wells and Rainbow Quest, traces to celebrated Boussac mare Tourzima (13c by Tourbillon), who the Aga Khan described as Boussac’s “rock”, “Just as Mumtaz Mahal was for my grandfather”. Several of Tourzima’s daughters became great producers. French Derby winner and sire Acamas and Arc winner Akiyda, descend from Gloriana, by Pharis; Gloriana’s sister, the Irish Oaks and French 1000 Guineas winner Corejada, is the dam of French Oaks winner Appolonia, while another sister, the Criterium de Maisons-Laffitte winner Albanilla, is the fourth dam of Darshaan, Darara and Dalara (dam of Daliapour). Darshaan (Shirley Heights-Delsy by Abdos) was the Champion Sire in France in 2003 and was a Champion Sire of Broodmares in Britain/Ireland and in France. His sire, the English and Irish Derby winner Shirley Heights (Mill Reef-Hardiemma by Hardicanute), was 1978 Horse of the Year in England and his 61 stakes winners included a seven-length English Derby winner Slip Anchor. Mill Reef (1968-86, Never Bend-Milan Mill

by Princequillo) was also a Horse of the Year in England and won 12 of his 14 starts at two and three including the Dewhurst Stakes-Gr.1 at two and the English Derby, ‘King George’, Eclipse Stakes and Arc de Triomphe at three. Dalakhani’s dam Daltawa, by the Prix de la Salamandre winner Miswaki (Mr. ProspectorHopespringseternal by Buckpasser) won twice at 2000m in France at two and three including a Listed event and was a Gr.3 runner-up. She had been paired with the Mill Reef line before, going to English 2000 Guineas winner Doyoun (Mill ReefDumka by Kashmir), a horse inbred 4mx5f to Mumtaz Begum, to produce the European Horse of the Year of 1999 in Daylami, winner of 11 races including the Breeders’ Cup Turf, ‘King George’, Coronation Cup and the French 2000 Guineas. Daltawa’s sire Miswaki is one of the best stallion sons of Mr. Prospector and best know for his Arc-winning daughter Urban Sea, dam of champions Galileo (Sadler’s Wells) and Sea The Stars (Cape Cross). Reliable Man’s dam is the stakes winning Sadler's Wells mare On Fair Stage and he is a half-brother to the Listed winner Gale Force (Sinndar) and the talented I'm Imposing (Danehill Dancer), a dual Gr.3 winner in Australia and Gr.1 placed in the Doomben Cup. His second dam is the high-class race mare Fair Salinia (Petingo-Fair Arabella by Chateaugay), winner of the English, Irish, and Yorkshire Oaks, all Gr.1, and dam of seven winners including other SW Perfect Vintage (Shirley Heights) and Perfect Circle (Caerleon). This is family 16c and fifth dam is the Gr.1 winner Snow Goose, a daughter of Derby winner Mahmoud and noted producer Judy O’Grady (Man o’War). It is the family of successful sires Grey Dawn and Green Dancer. Reliable Man’s 2016 fee is $NZ15,000, plus GST, and he has covered big books in his four southern seasons. l

MARC & SARAH DEVCICH FROM growing up on dairy farms to living the dream working with thoroughbreds, successful self-made couple Marc and Sarah Devcich share their story on how they became to own and manage one New Zealandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best boutique spelling and yearling preparation farms, Henley Park at Cambridge in the heart of the Waikato.

Q: Sarah let’s begin with you. You actually started your career in banking, what made you switch to the thoroughbreds? A: “I grew up on a dairy farm, so was always surrounded by animals, including horses, but after I finished school a chance came up to work at the ANZ Bank. I took the job and worked there as a teller, moving into a sales supervisor role for six years. It gave me good admin and customer management experience and a grounding for managing finances I guess, but I took a sabbatical and left ANZ to work and travel overseas for a couple of years. “When I returned home to New Zealand my bank job was waiting for me, but I really felt like a change. A friend who I’d grown up with asked me to work at their Waikato-based stud, Curraghmore to help out at the Karaka Yearling Sales. I took the chance, absolutely loved it, and here I am 20 years later still working with horses! It was a careerdefining decision.”

Q: From Curraghmore you met Marc, and worked with some of New Zealand’s most reputable studs including Highview, Mapperley and Windsor Park, right? A: “Yes that’s right. I first met Marc at Karaka while I was working at Curraghmore, but when the work dried up as we headed into the off-season, a full-time job came up at Highview Stud just across the road, where Marc was managing their yearlings at the time. It was there where we both really hit it off. After a year at Highview, a fantastic opportunity to co-manage Mapperley Stud arose so we managed that for eight years, where we worked hard, learnt a lot and had some great times.”

Q: The Schick family of Windsor Park Stud gave you an opportunity to take it to another level, how did this help bring you closer to purchasing Henley Park? A: We became good friends with the Schick family over the years, and when the chance came up for Marc and I to manage their 500 acre (202ha) run-off farm, Halidon Hill, for broodmares and spellers, we didn’t hesitate in taking up the job. We were also fortunate enough to be allowed to prepare a few yearlings of our own from Halidon, so it was a terrific opportunity. After three years, a full time yearling manager job came up at Windsor Park, so Marc took the opportunity while I continued to manage Halidon Hill on my own.”

Q: You finally got your big break in 2008 and found the idyllic property to buy in Henley Park. Was it love at first sight? A: “I first visited the property many years ago for a stallion parade and even then I thought it had a really nice feel. It was peaceful, quiet and very green. When it came on the market, we thought it would be out of our price range. Luckily we had a good bank manager and a good accountant! “The property has now grown to 60 acres (24ha), with a range of paddocks in different sizes, yearling yards, and a big open barn which works very well. We’ve got covered yards for rehabilitating horses and a big sand yard to educate horses, or if they need to get off the grass. When we moved here we did a lot of fencing, alterations, but to be fair, the bones of the place were already there, so we were lucky. Marc stayed on with Windsor Park for the first four years while I managed Henley Park from scratch and it’s just grown from there.”

Q: How difficult is it being married and working with someone? Are there times when you just wanted to kill each other?

A: “Ha, ha, definitely! It’s actually quite hard at times but we really complement each other and have got the balance right. After a few months at Mapperley we worked out that Marc would be in charge of the broodmare/dry mare division and I would be in charge of the yearlings, so as long as the lines are drawn on who’s managing what, that’s the main thing.

“The Schick family from Windsor Park has been a huge part of our success. They have given us great opportunities along the way and have had shares in some of our yearlings too. Quite often we’ll bounce ideas and questions off them.”

“It’s like anything though, we’ve both got our strengths and weaknesses and we play to that. It’s just a dream to be operating under our own name. We’ve worked really hard to get where we are and now we’re getting the results.”

A: “Everyone seems to be quite positive and we’re lucky to be getting some good young stallions coming into the country. New Zealand has been in a bit of a transitioning period, so it’s good to see some nice well-bred fillies coming in to boost our broodmare band. We’ve good such good conditions for raising and breeding stock and the results show on the track, so we’ll keep doing what we do. The future looks great.”

Q: You’ve had some big name horses spell at Henley Park including Mongolian Khan, Dundeel, Lion Tamer, Sangster, Solzhenitsyn and Norzita. A: “We’ve been very lucky to get the support of some great trainers such as Murray Baker and Andrew Forsman. It’s a beautiful quiet farm, peaceful, a lot of green grass and trees. We’ve built up a rapport with people over the years at the sales so all of that has helped to put us in the position we are in today with our spelling and yearling preparation.”

Q: What have been some of your best achievements in the sales ring and on the track? A: “We bred and prepared Norzita even though she sold under the Windsor Park draft at Karaka for $NZ200,000. She went on to win two Gr.1 events, The Storm Queen and the Flight Stakes. As you can imagine that was a huge thrill. “Table Bay, a Gr.3 juvenile winner in South Africa is another we prepared and sold two years ago at Melbourne Premier. The two other best ones we had we’re actually passed in, but they went on to become really good racehorses; Midnight Oil (Gr.1 winner) and Excellent Reward (Listed winner). But I’d say the best are yet to come.”

Q: Success is hard to achieve in this game, what’s your philosophy on achieving it? A: “Care, attention to detail and knowing your horse is important. If you’re going to do a job, then do it properly and be transparent with everything you do. That’s how Marc and I like to operate. Honestly and integrity go a long way. “Having good staff is crucial too. At the moment we’ve got Megan Silson, who’s with us full time and we employ casual staff for yearling preparations and to work at the sales. We make sure our horses are fed right, checked thoroughly, relaxed and happy.”

Q: What’s involved in a typical yearling preparation at Henley Park? A: “Horses are rugged, separated, well fed and handled all year around, but heading into a sale we tend to work on a three month preparation. As a rule our yearlings spend a lot of time outside because we think they’re happiest when they’re out and about and time in the paddock is good for them. “They basically come in in the morning, and are out by lunchtime. They are groomed and hand walked daily and washed weekly.”

Q: Who has been a key mentor for you, or someone you’ve admired in the thoroughbred industry? A: “I learnt a lot from Gordon Cunningham at Curraghmore, who was my first boss in the industry. Murray Baker is a terrific trainer and horseman. Whenever a horse is prepared and sent to Australia from that stable, you know they’ll always be competitive. He obviously doesn’t send them over for the fun of it.

Q: Sarah, what does the future hold for breeding in New Zealand?

Q: Marc, I’ve spent all this time talking with your fabulous wife Sarah, it’s time I pay you some attention. Where did it all begin for you? A: “Well I also grew up on a dairy farm and my career with thoroughbreds started off at Highview Farm. After a couple of years there I went to Australia and worked a yearling preparation at Segenhoe Stud, back when Duncan Grimley and Martin Byrne were there. “I then moved to Widden Stud in the early 90s for four years when Vain, Marscay and Bletchingly were there. That was a terrific time and experience having those champion stallions on the roster. I also travelled to America and did a breeding season at Dixiana Farm, which was a boutique farm with three or four stallions. “When I returned to New Zealand I went back to Highview as yearling manager and then eventually to Mapperley and Windsor Park, as Sarah mentioned earlier. All the farms I’ve been to I learnt a lot from. That’s the great thing about our industry is that you can travel, live abroad and be a sponge, soaking up all that knowledge.”

Q: Which sales does Henley tend to sell at and how are your 2017 yearlings lining up? A: “We tend to predominantly sell at Karaka, Classic and Melbourne Premier, along with the odd Easter sale. Overall we’ve got a really good line up of yearlings for 2017. There’s a lot of depth and consistency. “For Karaka we have a cracking Tavistock colt, who is a half to Allez Eagle. We’ve also got a lovely Sepoy colt, who is a half to Norzita. Two stunning colts by first season sires Dundeel and Fiorente are real eye catchers, so we’re confident they’ll grab the attention of the good judges. In the Select session we have two colts by another first season sire, Declaration of War, who are both impressive types. A very nice draft is coming together for Melbourne Premier too and this includes a lovely Excelebration colt.”

Q: Breeding and racing is such a global business now isn’t it? A: “Sure is, it’s a busy time with the travelling of yearlings, but it’s a global market and you’ve got to put yourself out there. We do our best to compete and meet market demand in New Zealand and Australia. “Being a boutique operation, we never sell in big numbers but we always have a nice group of select horses for different sales. Positioning your yearling for the right sale and market is key and we seem to be getting that right at the moment.”

Q: What’s your career advice for those wanting to work the breeding industry? A: “I’ve worked in the industry for 25 years and I reckon the key is to keep learning, watching and observing and working hard. Ask lots of questions and take in as much information as possible from the successful farms because you never stop learning.” l

PERSONALITY PROFILE by Graeme Kelly

happy hunting ground for Mulcaster BuyingBench by Donna Stoddart

EW Zealand Bloodstock’s auctions are a highly regarded marketplace for quality thoroughbreds and the company’s National Yearling Sales Series from January 30, 2017 at Karaka offers buyers the chance to purchase a potential champion. Group One winners Sacred Falls, Kermadec, Preferment and Sacred Elixir are among a long list of outstanding NZB sales graduates. However, these horses have more than that in common as Guy Mulcaster of Mulcaster Bloodstock, New Zealand, secured this quartet as yearlings. They join horses the calibre of Winx, Catkins, Moriarty (IRE), Grand Marshal (GB), and Foreteller (GB) on his personal “honour roll”. Sacred Falls, by O’Reilly (NZ), was purchased for $160,000 and earned more than $4m, with wins including the Doncaster Handicap-Gr.1 in 2013 and 2014 and the George Main Stakes-Gr.1 in 2014. Kermadec, by Teofilo (IRE), won almost $3m and was also successful in the Doncaster (2015) and George Main (2015). Preferment has Gr.1 wins in the 2014 Victoria Derby, 2015 Turnbull Stakes, the 2016 Australian Cup and The BMW. “In the past two years, we have had the two stallions Kermadec and Sacred Falls to stud, and both have been very well supported. With Preferment most likely going to stud next year, it really is a testament to the quality of horses coming out of the Karaka sale,” Guy Mulcaster said. The Doncaster Handicap has turned out to be a bit of a Mulcaster “specialty” now with Sacred Falls, Kermadec and Winx winning the past four between them. “Next year we are going to have horses targeting that race again and it would be a huge thrill to get a fifth one, you just never know.” Guy Mulcaster has been involved in racing since a child and served a long apprenticeship in the

industry. He has worked for trainers and studs worldwide; was a training partner with Laurie Laxon; was employed as a bloodstock sales representative at New Zealand Bloodstock until finally commencing his own business in 2008. Clients include champion trainer Chris Waller, Raffles Farm (owned by Malaysian businessman Dato Yap Kim San) and the Ingham family. Mulcaster likes to go on the successful formula of 60% ‘type’ and 40% ‘pedigree’ when selecting a yearling, with scope to grow and develop into their full potential being very important. “If you go and see yearlings in January and then see them when they are having their first preparation, sometimes it’s hard to even recognise them as they’ve changed so much. “They need to have the ability to keep progressing physically into a nice horse, and that’s where we are lucky with trainers such as Chris Waller and Tony Pike who ensure that they have every chance to attain that level. Anybody can go to a sale and pay top price for a yearling, but in the end it comes down to having them placed in a stable where they get the chance to become the best they can be.” With tried horses, Mulcaster likes to look at their exposed form, what sort of races they are running in and how he thinks that will measure up back in Australasia. “In the early days with Chris (Waller), we couldn’t afford to spend a lot of money on tried horses overseas, but with horses like Foreteller, Moriarty and Stand to Gain being successful for us, it certainly gave clients confidence to spend more,” he said. Whether the horse purchased is a yearling or a tried horse, Mulcaster is adamant about one thing. “While it’s definitely an honour and a thrill to have horses running in good races, for horses at different levels

S.H.

Preferment (NZ) (Zabeel-Better Alternative (AUS) by Flying Spur)

the ‘best they can be’ might be a Saturday win or it may only ever be a Wednesday race. When they get to that level, then you have reached their full potential and that is very satisfying, because the clients have put up the money and placed their trust in your judgement. “I don’t believe in thinking that one race, like the Melbourne Cup for example, is the be all and end all for a horse. You might hope to win a race like that, but then you get a horse who wins good prize money along the way, but will never be running two miles at Flemington. You look at a mare like Catkins, who was purchased for $85,000 and won $2m. She never won a Gr.1, but was successful in five Gr.2, five at Gr.3 level and ran second in two Gr.1 races. And of course everybody loved cheering the grey mare on when she was racing, she was very popular.” Champion mare Winx, now a winner of more than $9m, was a yearling who really appealed to Mulcaster when he first saw her. “I just really thought she was a nice athletic filly and I really loved the fact that her mother (Vegas Showgirl (NZ) by Al Akbar (AUS)) had been so tough and durable over so many seasons in Australia and New Zealand. We’ve always liked the Street Cry breed, and over the New Zealand mare it looked like it could be a good cross. Of course now it’s certainly turned out to be that way! “I think you learn something new every step you make, and it’s good to sit back and see what kind of horses other people buy and work out the ‘logic’ behind those purchases. When you see certain people buy a number of really good horses over the years for not a lot of money it’s always interesting to try and figure out their methods. It’s not all about buying the most expensive horse at the sale, and for me it’s a great thrill to buy the one who wins the most prize money at the races from those horses on offer.” l

KARAKA

FIRST SEASON SIRES A CHAMPION Australian stayer, a champion European stayer, four champion three year-olds and a champion two year-old are among the 18 exciting first season sires represented at Karaka this January. Not surprisingly, for a New Zealand based sale, the new boys on the block with the most representatives are the NZ based sires Ferlax, Jakkalberry (IRE) and Shamexpress.

indsor Park Stud’s Gr.1-winning stallion Shamexpress (NZ) (O’Reilly–Volkrose by Volksraad (GB)) presents the largest number of yearlings by a first season stallion with 35 lots, 17 in the Premier Session and 17 in the Select. In the Premier Session he is represented by 12 colts and five fillies from some of New Zealand’s best performing families, while in Select he has eight colts and nine fillies. Shamexpress was an exceptional sprinter, winning the Newmarket Handicap-Gr.1 and placing in the VRC Sprint Classic, Lightning Stakes, Coolmore Stud Stakes and the MRC Schweppes Handicap. On retiring to stud he was the fastest son of his champion sire and, like

Ferlax (NZ)

O’Reilly, beat the older horses over 1200m at Gr.1 when only three. The next highest representation by a first season sire is the progeny of Ferlax (NZ) (Pentire (GB)-Legs Akimbo (AUS) by Marscay) with 17 yearlings. Ferlax was unbeaten in his first three starts at the races, and, proving this was no fluke, at his next start he easily won the VRC Australian Guineas-Gr.1. As a four year-old he finished second at weight-for-age level in the Memsie Stakes-Gr.1, beaten by the outstanding mare Atlantic Jewel. Finishing behind Ferlax that day were fellow first season sires Dundeel, and Fiorente, and the Gr.1 winners Green Moon, Happy Trails and Silent Achiever.

Standing at Haunui Farm in Karaka, Ferlax is by the very versatile Pentire, sire of 14 individual Gr.1 winners from out and out Gr.1 sprinters like Recurring and Mufhasa to elite stayers, including Prince of Penzance, Pantani and Pentane.

Jakkalberry (IRE)

Dundeel (NZ)

awarded the honour of Champion Older Male Stayer in Great Britain in 2012 and that of Champion Older Male in Italy in 2010 and 2011. He won races in Great Britain, America, Italy and the United Arab Emirates, as well as running third in the Melbourne Cup-Gr.1.

Premier Session and Henley Park has a well-related colt.

He stands at Novara Park, Cambridge and is represented at Karaka by two colts in the Premier Session and three colts and three fillies in the Select Session. If you are looking for a stayer his two colts in the Premier Session have pedigrees to fit the bill.

Another son of the ill-fated Northern Meteor is the Champion Three Year-Old Sprinter of 2013-14 Zoustar (AUS) (ex Zouzou by Redoute’s Choice), who along with the Champion Three Year-Old colt of the same year in Shamus Award (AUS) (Snitzel-Sunset Express by Success Express (USA)), stands at Widden Stud in New South Wales and have progeny to sell at Karaka.

The progeny of the 2013-14 New Zealand Horse of the Year, Dundeel (NZ) (High Chaparral (IRE)-Stareel by Zabeel) will be well sought after by buyers looking for a stayer or classic three year-old and he has six colts and four fillies to represent him in the Premier Session. Standing at Arrowfield Stud in the Hunter Valley, Dundeel is out of the Zabeel mare Stareel, and was an exceptional racehorse winning 10 races, six at Gr.1, including the Australian Derby, Queen Elizabeth Stakes, Randwick Guineas, Rosehill Guineas, Spring Champion Stakes and the Underwood Stakes.

Fiorente stands at Sun Stud in Victoria alongside another first season sire in Fighting Sun (AUS), a son of Northern Meteor-Irish Darling by Ivory’s Irish. He has a filly in the Premier Session and a colt in Select.

Dual Gr.1 winner Zoustar, who stands alternate seasons in Victoria, is represented in the Premier Session by a well related colt and two fillies, while Shamus Award retired to stud as the most highly rated and successful son of Snitzel. To clinch the Champion 3YO crown he won the W.S Cox Plate, beating the older horses including Fiorente and Happy Trails, and the VRC Australian Guineas. He was also third at Gr.1 level in the Caulfield Guineas and C.F. Orr Stakes.

He is by the deceased High Chaparral (IRE) (by Sadler’s Wells), a six-time Gr.1 winner at two, three and four, who was an exceptional sire with nine Gr.1 winners, five of them in Australia, including the international superstar So You Think, who is already proving his worth at stud, siring the 2016 NZ 1000 Guineas-Gr.1 winner La Diosa.

Coolmore Stud’s first season sires Camelot (GB) (Montjeu (IRE)- Tarfah by Kingmambo) and Declaration of War (USA) (War Front-Tempo West by Rahy) are both represented at Karaka. Carrying the successful Danzig line, Declaration of War was unbeaten at two and a Gr.1 winner as an older horse. He has six colts at Karaka, three in the Premier Session and three in Select.

The 2013 Melbourne Cup winner and Champion Australian Stayer Fiorente (IRE), by the German sire Monsun and from Desert Bloom by Pilsudski, introduces new bloodlines through his sire to this part of the world. Wentwood Grange is offering two fillies by him at the

Camelot, the Champion Three Year-Old Colt in Europe, Great Britain and Ireland, as well as a champion two-yearold, is a son of Montjeu, whose sire sons have done well in the southern hemisphere. He has seven yearlings in the Premier Session comprising five colts and two fillies.

Shamexpress (NZ) From the Darley Stud barn European Champion Two and Three Year-Old Dawn Approach (IRE) (New Approach (IRE)-Hymn of the Dawn by Phone Trick), has five colts at Karaka, with three being in the Premier Sale, while dual Gr.1 winner Epaulette (AUS) (Commands-Accessories (GB) by Singspiel (IRE)) has a colt and a filly in Premier and a filly and three colts in Select. The Factor (USA) (War Front-Greyciousness by Miswaki), a dual Gr.1 winner in America, has his first yearlings at this sale, a colt and a filly in Premier and two colts and a filly at Select. He commenced stud duties in America in 2013 and he has already left a Gr.1 winner in Noted and Quoted. He shuttles to Newgate Farm, which is also home to fellow first season sires Sizzling (AUS) (Snitzel-Admirelle by General Nediym), who won five races at two including the T.J. Smith Stakes-Gr.1, and has a colt in Premier as well as two colts and two fillies in Select, and Eurozone (AUS) (Northern Meteor-Miss Vandal by Don’t Say Halo (USA)), a smart two year-old who was Gr.1 placed at three, and has a colt and a filly in the Select Session. Other first season sires who have yearlings in the Select Session are the New Zealand based Sweet Orange (USA) (War Front-Good Vibes by Unbridled’s Song (USA)) with three fillies and a colt; the Queensland based Spirit of Boom (AUS) (Sequalo-Temple Spirit by Special Dane), a Gr.1 winner of nine races, with two colts from Bradbury Park. While the two year-old Magic Millions winner Unencumbered (AUS) (Testa Rossa-Blizzardly by More than Ready (USA)) who stands in Victoria at Three Bridges, is the last of the first season stallions to present yearlings with a colt and a filly.l

BELTANA STUD

Considering that he has just a handful of mares on the 4000 acre sheep and cattle property that is Beltana Stud, Richard Rutherford is a breeder who bats well above the average.

Take a look for example at his results at Karaka in 2016. Whilst big studs were parading big groups of yearlings Rutherford had just three in the Premier session. All sold well and each found good homes. Including a particularly eye-catching Savabeel colt out of the O'Reilly mare O'Reilly Rose who attracted spirited bidding. Named Savaborr, the $825,000 colt is now a member of the Ciaron Maher stables at Caulfield and Rutherford is looking forward to following his deeds on the track. Meanwhile he has another four nice horses to sell at Karaka 2017....

How do you rate your draft this year? They are beautiful horses, each have nice pedigrees with good performance behind them.

And who is the standout? The Shamexpress filly is just a beauty. She is an exceptionally good looking filly with great balance and strength, she ticks all the boxes. A bay daughter of the High Chaparral mare Crystalthecowgirl, the member of Shamexpress' debut crop is a half-sister to the exciting stayer Antonio Giuseppe who looked so good winning four in a row in Sydney en route to a game Metropolitan Handicap-Gr.1, 2400m second in early October. A granddaughter of the dual Listed winning Star Way mare Crystal Brook (dam of the Group Two winner Highflying), she is a special horse for Rutherford who bred her Newmarket Handicap-Gr.1, 1200m winning sire.

Who are the best horses you have bred and sold? Shamexpress is the best in recent years and hopefully last year's Savabeel colt will do me proud, he was a cracking type.

What have been your highlights over the last 12 months? Antonio Giuseppe's progression has been great to watch and our home-bred Emily Monk has won four races this year.

Who are some of the best mares at your farm? There are no outside mares at Beltana but we have some lovely mares of our own. A couple of well

BRADBURY PARK

Bradbury Park has come a long way in a relatively short time. Established in early 2010 by Casey and Michelle Dando, the stud was initially just 16 boxes leased on a small block of land. Within a few months Bradbury Park was on 45 acres in Matamata and fast forward to 2016 and 110 acres house some twenty times the number of horses they began with!

been through Karaka or not. One to name drop is Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Our Rokki with his Group One win in Melbourne during the Spring .

A neighbouring farm was purchased in May this year to further extend Bradbury Park, a property named in honour of trainer Ian Bradbury, Michelle's grandfather.

Who are your stand-outs for Karaka 2017?

And if that wasn't enough, the Dandos as of August have taken over the management of Dormello Stud.

Without labelling one what we will say is that we have a very nice line up of yearlings all of who eat well. They are furnishing into a lovely bunch of professional young horses.

Bluebloods engaged Casey and Michelle in a quick Q&A session...

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale?

How do you rate your draft?

We have 90 days of actual preparation; however most of them have had the sale in mind from their very early days. We teach our yearlings to be settled so they are relaxed and eat well. All of the sales preparation and presentation involved ends with just two minutes in the sale ring. We do not get the chance to say to the connections we will be better next start so we try to leave no stone unturned which in turn should give the buyers the confidence to buy from Bradbury Park.

We are very happy with our consignment this far out from sale day, they are all progressing nicely and their attitudes are fantastic.

Who have been some of the best horses you have bred and sold? We got great pleasure out off Strada Cavalloâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s threeyear-old season last year. She was consistent throughout whole year with a couple of Group One placings along the way. Fantastic Honour showed good ability but unfortunately we never got to see the best of her before injury put a premature end to her race career. We are looking forward to the progress of the Chris Waller trained Chaussure in the autumn; he has won two of his first three starts and looks to have a bright future. We do keep an eye on all of our graduates all over the world whether they have

Based on your knowledge of buyers and the types they buy do you pre-determine that certain yearling may appeal to specific clients and make sure they are aware of this assessment on your part? Yes certainly this is a form of strategic marketing.

The best advice you can give buyers? Ask questions but be polite as it is a tense time for all involved and you should not miss the one you want the most!

Do you have a favourite racehorse who you have been closely associated with? There are far too many to name. However we do take special pride in all winners that have been through our hands here at Bradbury. Bluebloods took a look at Bradbury Park's 2017 Karaka Premier draft, one which consists of a varied bunch of well related colts and fillies; six of whom are by exciting young stallion Reliable Man. A big race winner in Europe (French Derby-Gr.1, 2100m) and Australia (Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1, 2000m), amassing over $1.8 million in stakes, Reliable Man is represented by his debut crop of two-year-olds this season. The first of Bradbury Park's Karaka Premier Reliable Mans is lot 29, a grey half-brother to the triple Listed winner Guns At Five and the Group Three placed Fantastic Honour. Out of a half-sister to the Emancipation Stakes-Gr.2, 1600m winner Sworn To Secrecy, this colt has as his third dam the two times Group winning stayer Chaleyer. Next up is lot 97, a chestnut filly out of the stakes winning Danehill mare Chuckle who is well and truly proving her worth at stud having already produced seven winners (from as many to race) including the Listed winners Hoofit and Crack Me Up.

HAUNUI FARM

Haunui Farm are offering seventeen yearlings in the Premier sale and forty yearlings in the Select sale

Karaka 2017 will be an especially exciting sale for Haunui Farm whose young stallion Ferlax, winner of the 2013 Australian GuineasGr.1, 1600m, will be represented by his much anticipated first crop of yearlings.

And the stud’s Mark Chitty could not be happier with the way in which the handsome brown stallion’s progeny are shaping heading towards the sale. "We are delighted with the style of horse he is producing for us," he said. "He has served a variety of mares in regards to pedigree and is leaving a nice physical type. They are scopey yearlings with plenty of natural muscle and good bone. There is a lot to like about them."

winner Euryale, a son of a 3/4 sister to dual Listed winner Pinezero, a colt out of a half-sister to the US Group Three winner Beauty Parlor and the French Listed winner The Brothers War, a filly out of the talented Rhandara whose dam is the dual Group Three winner Bhandara, a half-brother to Macau Horse Of The Year Luck Of Smiling and a filly from the immediate family of dual Group One winning speedster Miracles Of Life.

Haunui has three Ferlax yearlings in the Karaka Premier session...

Ferlax's progeny are part of a strong draft for Haunui, one which Chitty describes as "the biggest we have had for some time."

Lot 169 bay filly Forever Hailey (More Than Ready): dam is a daughter of the stakes winning Zabeel mare Diamond Hailey, half-sister to the Group Three winner Veronica Franco and the Listed winner Waterford.

"We have a variety of stallions represented and our colts are a particularly nice group. We have the first foals of some very good race mares raced by ourselves and clients and we are very happy with the overall quality of the draft."

Lot 187 brown colt Gondola Girl (Thorn Park): out of a city winning half-sister to the four times Group One winning successful stallion Show A Heart. Boasts an interesting pedigree with Thorn Park being bred on the same Northern Dancer/Never Bend/Biscay cross as Ferlax

Bluebloods had a few questions for Chitty...

Lot 411 chestnut colt Sister Phenomenon (Rock Of Gibraltar): bred on a 3m x 4f cross of Be My Guest, he is a half-brother to the city winning three-year-old Rare Occurrence out of a half-sister to the stakes winners Spacecraft and Phenomenons. Ferlax is also well represented in the Select session with Haunui selling a filly from the family of Moonee Valley Cup-Gr.2, 2500m winner Storm, a half-sister to the Queen Of The South Stakes-Gr.2, 1600m winner Atlantis Dream, a half-brother to the Listed winner Atom Cat, a colt out of a sister to the Listed

What are the best horses you have bred and sold? We’ve had a terrific run with eight stakes performers from the farm this season headlined by Singapore Gold Cup winner Bahana. I’d like to think that with the quality of stock that we have sold through Karaka that number will continue to rise as the season progresses. Other recent Group winners sold through our draft at Karaka include Vavasour, Maygrove, Atlantis Dream, Showboy, Vilanova and First Impressions.

What sort of preparation do you give your sale yearlings?

I’m a big believer that the preparation starts in utero. From giving the mares the best care during pregnancy to managing our foals and weanlings. The first winter for a young thoroughbred is always a very important time as it gets cold and wet here and we have to ensure that they continue to grow out nicely. They go through a number of different growth phases and managing those is very important – some you can almost close your eyes and they just do it naturally, others need a lot of management and changing of routine and daily care to make sure that they remain on the right track. Our Premier yearlings in general have a preparation that lasts between 12 to 14 weeks. We need this time as the weather can be so variable in the months of October, November and December, to put them through a shorter preparation would mean we have to push too hard too soon and that’s not always the best thing to do. It’s a longer preparation than what you would see in Australia but it gives them a very good grounding and I’m always confident that once they’ve been through the sale ring, our yearlings will continue to go forward for buyers and that’s very important for the next phase of breaking-in.

How does your selling team prepare for the sales? The key I think is that each person knows the horse they are selling, you have to know the individual in front of you. We also have a good knowledge of the sires of the yearlings we present, what nicks and crosses are working for them. And we study their x-rays and scopes. I am actually surprised by how rarely buyers ask about a horse’s background during their inspections.

HIGHDEN PARK

Everyone in racing loves a good tip, and when Libby Bleakley at Highden Park told Bluebloods last year that they’d have something good to talk about for next year’s issue, we waited in anticipation.

It turns out Libby was correct. From only small drafts, Highden Park have added three group performers to their list of graduates in the last twelve months. In 2015, they sold a Tavistock filly for $200,000. Named Harlow Gold, she chased down the runaway $120 winner of the VRC Oaks in the spring to become a winning Gr.1 placed race filly at just her seventh start. The year prior, they sold Montaigne, who became Gr.1 placed at his sixth start when he ran second to Tarzino in the Rosehill Guineas. He is now in Hong Kong. Also from that 2014 draft was Glorious Beijing, who won on debut in February 2016, then ran second in the Gr.2 Wellington Guineas.

What have been some of your best horses bred and sold? We are quite new to this industry, and this year will be our seventh draft of yearlings. We’ve never had more than a dozen in our draft, so to have stakes winner Orbity as well as the group placed horses is quite exciting. Of those that haven’t been through our drafts, we also have Strada Cavallo who ran third in this year’s NZ Oaks who was bred and born here at Highden Park, as was Amazing Kids who is a Gr.3 winner in Hong Kong this year. Stakes placed Starlight Angel is another who was born and raised here, and is now back as a broodmare.

How do you rate your draft this year? When we looked at our initial draft list, most of them were by Tavistock, so we had to shop around for a few clients’ horses by other stallions. It’s a good problem to have, too many by Tavistock, however, we didn’t want a draft with only one sire represented. To have variety shows that our draft represents all budgets, and we want everyone to come and inspect them. We have sourced a lovely colt by Power who started his stud career so well the other day with

a stakes winner. Niagara is a second season sire, and we are pleased to have a yearling by him. Adding to that we have the first season sire buyers covered with a colt by Ferlax. To round off our draft we have two very nice yearlings by Reliable Man. They are strong and physical and very good looking.

What are some of the best mares owned or agisted at your farm? The cool thing about racing is that you never know what you have standing in the paddock from one day to the next. These mares were all here two years ago, but suddenly they are pretty posh mares. One race makes the difference between just another broodmare and “wow”. We have Bagalollies, who is the 2016 Broodmare of the Year thanks to her son Werther. We went up to the awards night to receive the trophy on behalf of the owners which was very exciting. Belongs in Lights is another mare here who has a huge breeding record. Her first two foals were stakes winners (Travolta and Weissmuller) and now she has Gr.1 placed Harlow Gold. Another nice mare who is a resident here is Gr.1 placed Blinding whose second foal is in our Premier draft.

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale? We focus a lot on hand walking and education. That gives them an edge, as they are mentally ready for breaking and racing. I believe that this method gives them confidence. Everything is individually planned. The weather this year has been terrible with so much rain. However, the weather doesn’t change the plan; it just changes how you dress. Hand walking has moved from grass to laneways to avoid the mud, but we just put on a raincoat and a sheet and get out there and get it done.

The selling team. How do they prepare? Do they swot up on pedigree highlights, Nicks, line breeding, type, x-rays, so that they can have all information at their disposal to answer questions from potential buyers? We are so small that we don’t have a ‘selling team’. It’s just me, and the few staff. Everyone gets pedigree updates. We also do x-rays; we’ve x-rayed this lot and they are clean at this stage. They will get re-done in January. We just try to take honest horses that sell themselves.

Based on your knowledge of buyers and the types they buy, do you pre-determine that certain yearlings may appeal to specific clients and make sure they are aware of this assessment on your part? Because Highden Park is so new, we are still meeting everyone and learning the different types that people like. We do put a lot of effort into this area, and try to have a good understanding of buyers and their preferences. Last year I specifically asked certain buyers “What can I bring to the sale so you will buy one from me?” The reason behind this is that I love our horses and I want them to get the best opportunities, to go to the right stables and trainers that will care for them. This also helps safeguard Highden Park’s reputation. When we were deciding on this year’s draft, we picked each horse with a buyer in mind using the information from last year. Now I can say “Remember last year when I asked what you wanted, here it is.” It makes our service personalised in an industry where client relations is the key to success.

KARAKA

JAMIESON PARK

Selling a horse like Raghu will put any farm in the spotlight, and for a new stud such as Jamieson Park having a top class three year-old on their graduate list does wonders for promotion. From its first three Karaka Premier drafts three of the seven yearlings sold have become stakes winners, Raghu, Weregoingtogetcha and Marcado, an outstanding result by any measure.

What have been the highlights in the past 12 months? We started the year with Raghu (Showcasing) winning the $250,000 Karaka Mile-Listed. He then went on to be narrowly beaten in the Derby, which was great to see from one of the first horses we bred. James Chapman (owner) part-owns Euro Angel (Rip Van Winkle) who won the Ladies Day VaseGr.3 at Caulfield and is being set for the autumn in Sydney. We were excited to see Ruettiger (Duporth-Be Inspired) win a Listed race at Flemington during the spring. It is great when one of your mare’s progeny win a stakes race. O’Naturelle is an O’Reilly filly that we had to withdraw from the yearling sales, however she has since won impressively on debut before being stakes placed.

How do you rate your draft this year? Our yearling drafts are getting stronger year on year. We have continued to invest in nice young mares and we have tried to mate them to stallions who suit on type and pedigree. This year every yearling in the draft was raised here on the farm, all carrying the JP brand.

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale? Their routine is similar to a horse in training but their main form of exercise is trotting in the lunge rather than working on the track. The other main difference is they are outside a lot more, spending most nights outside in paddocks. We use the Neil Davies method of handling at weaning time, it’s a great way of teaching while also giving the horse confidence.

Favourite place to dine after each day?

Premier

The farm is very close to Bracu (www.bracu.co.nz) which is on the top of the Bombay Hill. It’s an ideal spot to dine and relax once the sales are over.

Zabeel has 30 Gr.1 winners as a broodmare sire, and his daughter Be Inspired is already a proven broodmare as the dam of Australian stakes winner Ruettiger (Duporth). Her filly, Lot 62, is by second season sire Reliable Man. Be Inspired is a full-sister to Gr.3 winner and Queensland Derby-Gr.1 placed Rainbow Styling, as well as a half-sister to Gr.3 winner Zingaling, and the dam of stakes winner Neverland. “A filly with a great pedigree and plenty of quality”

Do you have a favourite racehorse that you have been closely associated with? We enjoy watching any NZ bred horse perform well internationally.

What ignited your passion for horses? (James Chapman) An interest in several horses led to visits to many of NZ’s fine studs which ignited my desire to create my own stud farm and breed racehorses. It has been six years since buying our first mares and we are now seeing the progeny perform on the track. Jamieson Park is maturing into a great environment to breed racehorses. (Sam Munro) I was pretty much hooked from a young age. My parents had a couple of good fillies when I was a kid. Ma Chiquita was a top filly, she won the Magic Night and came from last to run a close up 6th in the Golden Slipper, she trained on to win the George Main. Tasman Dancer was a brilliant filly whom dad trained. I enjoyed reading dad’s old books on the great racehorses of the past and I became very interested in the breeding side and pedigrees. My parents gave me my first mare as a birthday present when I was 12. I suspect she was a cull because she wasn’t much good and only cost me money! It was a good lesson; you certainly improve your chances of success if you start with quality stock.

A colt by first season sire Declaration of War, Lot 85 is the first foal of winning mare Cardiac (by Encosta de Lago). Cardiac is a half-sister to VRC Oaks-Gr.1 winner Arapaho Miss (dam of stakes placed De Little Engine, by Encosta de Lago). “A nice strong colt with a great nature.” Sepoy has kicked off his career in style with two group winners in the UK, and several stakes quality horses from his first Australian crop. A half-sister to a dual Gr.1 winner will always be sought after, and Lot 108 is just that. Her halfbrother Historian (by Choisir) won both the Zabeel Classic-Gr.1 and the Thorndon Mile-Gr.1. “A big strong filly bred on a similar cross to the mare’s best performer Historian.” Jamieson Park sold stakes winner and Gr.1 placed Raghu, and now offer his half-sister by young sire Shamexpress as Lot 159. This filly is out of Fantasy World, a Zabeel mare who is a half-sister to stakes winner Latin Quarter and Elected. “A big strong filly who has a lot of Zabeel about her.”

LIME COUNTRY

It is with mixed feelings that Lime Country announces that this will be the farm’s final New Zealand Bloodstock draft. After nine years selling here, they are relocating to Think Big Stud in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. “The opportunity to lease a farm like Thing Big Stud is huge for us, and we hope to farewell Karaka with a strong draft,” said Jo Griffin.

What are some of the best horses the farm has been associated with? Bred by the Lowry’s, recently retired Hong Kong Champion Ambitious Dragon is the biggest name horse that has spent time at the farm going through his breaking-in, pre-training and early education. Singapore Derby winner Spalato is another from this farm, while recent Singapore Gold Cup winner Bahana was a graduate from our 2013 Ready to Run draft. The quality of our drafts has increased over time, and we firmly believe that the best is yet to come.

How do you rate your draft this year? Last year, we had a strong sale with our Premier horses ranging from $120,000 to $185,000, but we lacked a super star big lot. We had a very strong Select draft with a top price of $220,000; and we topped the Festival session with an $80,000 sale. This year we’ve got real firepower through our Premier session and the blend of type and pedigree that we think will have a plenty of appeal. Overall it’s a very solid draft.

And the standouts this year? I am madly in love with the I Am Invincible-Different To filly (Lot 131), she is a just a gorgeous, spunky filly. The Giant Mystique colt (Lot 178) is a burly, forward type of O’Reilly who is a three-quarter brother to War Affair. The Dundeel-Assertive Angel colt (Lot 52) is a flashy, muscular horse, very bullish although quite leggy and attractive. And the Savabeel-La Praline colt (Lot 251) has a stallion’s pedigree. He’s the type of horse buyers come

to New Zealand to find, with a loose walk and very scopey. In the Select session, the Niagara-Boxapins colt (Lot 578) is a similar quality of horse to his full brother who recently sold for $85,000 at the Ready to Run sale.

Sales time is a mad mixture of concentrated commercial activity and the building of friendly client relations. Do you and your team split up responsibilities or is everyone involved in all aspects of selling and entertaining? What works for you? We take plenty of time to teach our staff about the pedigrees of the horses, particularly those staff who are new to this industry. Throughout the preparation, we also provide all the pedigree updates. At the sales, Greg and I answer client’s questions on the ground as the staff are busy with the horses. Greg enjoys parading the horses and he mixes his time doing that, while I tend towards looking after clients who are selling horses through our draft. Because our staff have deep understandings of all the pedigrees, they can also answer off the cuff questions from buyers without needing to refer to us. The sales are the perfect time for entertaining and we enjoy spending time with people and having some fun in the evenings. We like getting out as much as possible in the evenings while friends and clients are here from overseas to celebrate or commiserate as the case may be!

Your best moment at the sales? We are still aiming to sell a really big lot, $500,000 plus. In the meantime some of my favourite moments

have been when friends have managed a really big sale, we all get a kick out it. Kiwis are a tight bunch and we’re always pretty chuffed when someone has a good result.

The best advice you can give buyers? Well I’m not going to tell very good buyers of horses how to do their job! However, if people are open enough to tell us what they are after, a type for a purpose for example, we can possibly save them some time parading drop something off or offer something up that they may not have on a list. I guess the only other thing is any good judge can pull a horse apart on conformation but I always admire those who can see the athlete and trust their gut with what they think will have the X-factor.

What ignited your passion for horses? Greg and I have been horse people all our lives. It is the freedom, the speed, the look and smell of them – just everything.

Premier Lime Country will present nine yearlings in Premier, led by a colt by dual Champion Sire Savabeel. Lot 251 is the second foal of Australian city winner La Praline (by Anabaa), whose dam is Gr.2 winner Viennetta, also dam of Gr.3 winner Golden Archer. Two yearlings by Champion Sire O’Reilly are in this draft. Singapore buyers will like the pedigree of Lot 178, as this colt’s dam, Giant Mystique, is a half-sister to Singapore Horse of the Year War Affair, winner of five Gr.1 races in that nation.

MAPPERLEY STUD

Mapperley Stud, a brand with a long history, has come out blazing with their young guns this season. The farm stands three young stallions – Complacent, Contributer and He’s Remarkable – and their 2017 draft is full of the progeny of young, up and coming stallions, with a few of the old guard thrown in for good measure. Bluebloods spoke to Jasmine Robertson about Mapperley Stud’s offerings.

What have been some of your best horses bred and sold? The big three that carry the Mapperley brand are So You Think, Dundeel and Sangster. Since 2012, we have sold Gr.2 winner and Gr.1 placed Thunder Lady (whose half-sister is Lot 453), Gr.2 winner Joyful Park, Gr.3 winner and Gr.1 placed Allez Eagle, and stakes winners Spellbinder and Tennessee. In November 2016, Talaria won a Listed race for two year-olds and the full brother is Lot 33.

How do you rate your draft this year? With 10 Premier and 16 Select yearlings, we have a big draft of nice yearlings that include a colt from O’Reilly’s last crop, as well as yearlings by boom sires Tavistock and Mapperley branded So You Think. Most of our Select yearlings are by young stallions, including seven by our resident sire He’s Remarkable. We also have a colt by The Factor, who has started his career so well in the USA with a Gr.1 winning two year-old from his first crop there. He’s Remarkable (Pentire-Axiom by Zabeel) has really stamped his stock, and his first crop of yearlings sold up to $110,000. Some good judges bought them, such as Roger James who purchased two from our draft last year. Several also went to Australian homes. They look like they’ll be post-Christmas two yearolds, or early three year-olds, just like He’s Remarkable and his dual Gr.1 winning full brother Xtravangant. We also have 10 yearlings in the Festival Sale.

Sales time is a mad mixture of concentrated commercial activity and the building of friendly client relations. Do you and your team split up responsibilities or is everyone involved in all aspects of selling and entertaining? What works for you? At Mapperley we have a strong team dynamic and believe it is important to play everyone to their strengths. Simms and I are the first point of contact for client relations and we feel the sales are a great opportunity for owners and buyers to meet the dedicated team who work tirelessly to beautifully prepare our excellent draft of yearlings.

Favourite racehorse? So You Think is of course a farm favorite being a graduate of Mapperley.

Premier Mapperley Stud has ten yearlings for sale in the Premier Sale, three fillies and seven colts. The filly by resident sire He’s Remarkable, Lot 453, is a half-sister to Gr.2 winner and Gr.1 placed Thunder Lady. This is the fabulous family of Gr.1 winner Tully Thunder, Gr.2 winner Fleur de Chine, and stakes winners Sufficient and Zamzam.

Favourite place to dine after each day?

Champion Sire O’Reilly is represented by a colt, Lot 33, from stakes placed Alberton Princess, a half-sister to Gr.2 winner Te Akau Rose, and to the dams of Testarhythm and Cavalry Rose. His 2YO full-sister Talaria recently became a stakes winner. From the same family is a colt by Champion Sire Savabeel, Lot 242, from Gr.3 winner Lady Alberton whose first foal is a winner. Lady Alberton is a half-sister to Alberton Park, and is out of Gr.2 winner Alberton Star. Also by Savabeel is a filly, Lot 112, from a winning mare who boasts the likes of triple Gr.1 winner Volkstock’n’barell in her family.

The Blue Breeze Inn is always a great spot to visit, our team however don't like to venture too far from the yearlings so for the duration of the sale we make the Mapperley Stud marquee our home base which means we are able to keep a close eye on the horses whilst enjoying spending time unwinding at the end of a hard day.

Global Gr.1 winner Mapperley branded So You Think grabbed his first Gr.1 winner recently with La Diosa. He is represented here by a colt, Lot 380, who is the first foal out of Sam I Am, a three race winning half-sister to stakes placed Keep Cool and Porcellanus. This is the family of Gr.1 winner Coco Cobanna.

At Karaka (and at home) our experienced yearling manager Rachel Napper is charged with the responsibility of managing the staff and yearlings to ensure everything runs smoothly. Rachel is supported by a hard working and loyal team who know what they're doing and how to get the job done! We are very lucky to have Simm's wife Margaux holding the fort in the marquee and she does a wonderful job at ensuring that everyone is watered and fed throughout the day.

MONOVALE FARM

Monovale Farm has enjoyed a string of outstanding results across Australasia in recent years to confirm its standing as a Group One nursery. The Cambridge operation was established by the late Paul Smithies and his wife Cushla and their sons Joe and Max have now taken over the reins. We spoke with Joe about Monovale’s history and the farm’s expectations for Karaka in 2017.

How do you rate your draft this year?

Centenary Sprint Cup-Gr.1).

Your best moment at the sale?

“Our 2017 yearlings, like previous Monovale drafts, are by a mixture of proven sires and exciting young stallions. We think they will appeal on pedigree and type and we are really looking forward to showcasing them at the New Zealand Bloodstock Yearling Sales series in late January.”

The third member of Monovale’s Premier Sale draft is Lot 413, a daughter of the Newmarket HandicapGr.1 winner Shamexpress out of the Kaapstad mare Skaapa. The filly is therefore a half-sister to the multiple winner Flying Orca, who has also placed in the Manawatu Breeders’ Stakes-Gr.3 and the Wanganui Cup-LR. The dam Skaapa is a half-sister to the Monovale graduates Adrift (Light Fingers Stakes-Gr.2) and Xiong Feng (Karaka Million-LR). Another heavyweight featured on this pedigree page is the triple Group One winner Maldivian (Cox Plate, Orr Stakes, Yalumba Stakes).

“We’ve been fortunate enough to enjoy many highlights, but the one that stands out is the Zabeel filly out of Stray who we sold to James Harron in 2013 for $370,000. That was Adrift who went on to win the Light Fingers Stakes-Gr.2 for Gai Waterhouse. We’ve also had quite a few sales around the $300,000 mark so hopefully we’ll be right up there again this time.”

And the standouts this year? “We obviously have high hopes for our Premier yearlings. These all have great conformation to match their outstanding pedigrees. That said, there are some outstanding individuals in the Select book also. The first yearling into the ring from Monovale Farm is Lot 99, a filly by the champion stallion Savabeel out of the Redoute’s Choice mare Classy Choice. A winner herself, she is the dam of Turner Bayou who has won five races including the Queensland Cup-LR. Classy Choice is also a half-sister to the former top race mare Devil Moon, the winner of the Turnbull Stakes-Gr.1, Stocks Stakes-Gr.2, Let’s Elope Stakes-Gr.3 and she was placed in the Australasian Oaks-Gr.1. Lot 298 is a colt by the young Group One-winning Fastnet Rock stallion Foxwedge out of the Montjeu mare Moniette, who is the mother of the South African Group Three winner Ma Choix (Kenilworth Victress Stakes). The second dam is Lady Genesis, who hails from an outstanding family as a threequarter sister to the Group One winners Nimue (New Zealand 1000 Guineas, Levin Bayer Classic) and Smiling Like (Wellington Cup). Another headline act in the pedigree is the crack New Zealand-bred international sprinter Aerovelocity (Takamatsunomiya Kinen-Gr.1, KrisFlyer International Sprint-Gr.1, Hong Kong Sprint-Gr.1,

Completing the Premier session consignment is Lot 427, who is a son of the former New Zealand Horse of the Year and multiple Group One winner Ocean Park and the Danehill mare Star Of Gibraltar, who won three races and was stakes placed. She has left four winners, including the Nudgee Handicap-LR winner Tukiyo, who is also a Group Three placegetter. The dam is a sister to the Hobart CupGr.3 winner Offenbach, who in 2004 realised $1 million as a Karaka yearling. The family also features the multiple European Group One winner and successful stallion Rock of Gibraltar.

What are some of the best mares owned or agisted at your farm? “We always have around 30 of our own mares on the property and we’re constantly looking to upgrade the broodmare band. Our leading mares at the moment would be Kay’s Awake, Stray, Miss Opera, Classy Choice, Star of Gibraltar, Moniette, Pipi Beel and Skaapa while next year No Tricks will be joining them as well.”

The best advice you can give buyers? “Enjoy the wonderful sales week that New Zealand Bloodstock puts on, get around as many yearlings as you can pre-sale and take the horse home that you came to buy.”

What have been some of the best horses bred, sold or raced by Monovale? Sir Slick (22 wins, including six at Group One level – Zabeel Classic, New Zealand Stakes, Waikato International Stakes, two Thorndon Miles, Otaki-Maori WFA Classic); Puccini (champion New Zealand three-year-old, New Zealand DerbyGr.1, Thorndon Mile-Gr.1, Great Northern GuineasGr.2); Xiong Feng (Listed Karaka Million); Platinum Witness (NZB Filly of the Year, New Zealand 1000 Guineas-Gr.1); Adrift (Light Fingers Stakes-Gr.2); No Tricks (Warstep Stakes-LR, Daybreak Lover Stakes-LR); Magic Dancer (Phoenix Park 2YO Classic-Gr.3); Turner Bayou (Queensland Cup-LR); Fulmonti (Hollindale Stakes-Gr.2, Chairman’s HandicapGr.3); You Think So (Night Cup-LR); Pride Of The Class (Desert Gold Stakes-Gr.3); Majestical (Cranbourne Cup-LR); Dame Claire

56 Two year-olds grazing on newly developed Hill Country farm at Pencarrow

PENCARROW STUD

Pencarrow Stud is home to many of New Zealand’s best families, and in 2017, breeders will have a unique opportunity to buy into those families. “We tend to race our fillies, and only sell our colts. However, this crop had a high proportion of fillies and we are offering them to the public,” said Manager Leon Casey.

This unusual offering for Pencarrow Stud should pique the interests of breeders across Australasia. From only a handful of fillies sold in the past, Pencarrow Stud has sold triple Gr.1 winner and South Africa’s Champion 3YO Hoeberg for $350,000; Gr.2 winner Winning Belle (now dam of Gr.1 winner Plucky Belle) for $280,000; Gr.3 winner Arrabeea for $135,000; Gr.2 winner Star of Nouvelle for just $26,000; and Gr.2 winner Moralee for only $11,000.

What have been some of your best horses bred and sold? Darci Brahma is my personal standout. A million dollar yearling that made more than that on the track, and now a successful sire. Other Gr.1 winners bred at this farm are Ethereal, Hoeberg, Clear Rose, De Beers, Grand Echezeaux and many others.

What have been your racing and breeding highlights in the last 12 months? We sold Gr.2 winner Hasselhoof (Tavistock – Alpine, by Zabeel) for $14,000, and he’s now earnt more than ten times that much. He won his first six in a row, and was recently Gr.1 placed in the Hawkes Bay Livamol Classic. We also sold Eleonora (Makfi – Sopra Tutto, by Van Nistelrooy) in 2015. She made $60,000 and has since won the Ethereal Stakes-Gr.3 (named after her granddam), and ran third in the VRC Oaks-Gr.1, and another filly sold under our banner was Te Akau Coup (Thorn Park - Beyond the Sunset, by Gone West). She sold for $150,000 and has gone on to win the Matamata Breeders’ S-Gr.2

How do you rate your draft this year? These twelve yearlings are a good range of horses. Some will come to hand quite early, while others are bred to stay and will, of course, do that. There should be a range of prices among them as well. Our best families are represented with plenty of fillies for fellow breeders to come and inspect.

What are some of the best mares owned or agisted at your farm? Pencarrow Stud owns all the mares that reside here. We’ve still got the older brigade, Grand Echezeaux is now twenty, and Ethereal is nineteen. We also have plenty of young members of those families that Pencarrow was founded on. Recently, we have introduced several young highly racetrack performed mares, including Gr.1 winners Banchee, Insouciant, Il Quello Veloce, and Guiseppina. Another nice mare is Scintillula (Galileo) who was Gr.1 placed as a two year-old in Ireland, before winning a Gr.3 there. Pencarrow Stud bought her as a tried horse, and she had a few starts before being retired to stud. She has a Snitzel filly at foot.

The selling team. How do they prepare? Do they swot up on pedigree highlights, Nicks, line breeding, type, x-rays, so that they can have all information at their disposal to answer questions from potential buyers? Sales are a necessity for any Thoroughbred farm, but racetrack performance is the goal. The performance of the horses is our lifeblood, and everyone here is always following our horses. Our staff are racing

fans, they often tell us of the updates; and not just the staff involved with the horses, everyone on the farm, even the guy who drives the tractor follow our horses on the track. When it comes to sales time, our staff already have a deep understanding of each horse, both as an individual and of their pedigree. We do have a racing manager who keeps track of all the details and makes sure everyone is on the same page. And generally we don’t have many seasonal staff, so that long term understanding of the horses and their families translates easily to sale day.

Your best moment at the sales? To sell Darci Brahma ($1.1m) and De Beers ($750,000) on the same day (2004) was very special. At that stage we didn’t know they would both become Gr.1 winners, but they both sold extremely well and were great types with good attitudes. They’d been paddock mates since birth, which added to the satisfaction.

Do you have a favourite racehorse that you have been closely associated with? Romanee Conti – because she overcame so many issues during her career, and she’s always been a bit underrated. Many of the races she won at the time hadn’t been fully recognised, yet now they are Gr.1 races, such as the Queen of the Turf Stakes. She also travelled to Hong Kong on top of that, winning the Hong Kong International Cup. And then she gave us Ethereal for good measure. That’s why I rate her my favourite above Ethereal who is also a horse of a lifetime.

KARAKA

SEATON PARK Providing a hands-on approach for their valued clients, Seaton Park Stud in the heart of Waikato is owned and managed by experienced couple Scott and Katie Eagleton. Established in 2003, Seaton Park quickly established itself as a superior thoroughbred nursery and in the last couple of years the Eagletons have enjoyed cheering on two outstanding gallopers in Volkstok'N'Barrell and Kawi. Both Group One winners over the course of 2016, Volkstok'N'Barrell and Kawi are just two of many high class performers who have been sold under the Seaton Park banner.

How do you rate your draft? It is probably the nicest draft we have had in years in terms of numbers and quality. At the Karaka Premier we have twelve yearlings and they are a genuinely nice bunch of horses with plenty of different stallions represented.

Who have been some of the best horses you have bred and sold? Volkstok'N'Barrell, Julinsky Prince, Booming and Kingdoms, they are all up there with the best we've sold. We didn't sell Lion Tamer but he was born and raised at Seaton Park Stud.

Who are your highlights for Karaka 2017? We have got a very nice Shocking filly out of Art Beat. Shocking is obviously doing pretty well and she is the second foal from a mare from a very good producing family in New Zealand.

The Snitzel - Cape Princess colt, who belongs to our biggest client John Bromley, is just a smashing colt.

Seaton Park are offering twelve yearlings in the Premier sale and thirteen yearlings in the Select sale

The Ocean Park - Warm Whispers colt reminds me of a real staying Grosvenor type horse. He is a lovely colt, there is something special about him. His full brother made $300,000 last year,.

All get access to the pedigrees and we talk about pedigrees. Regarding x-rays, I don't give my staff any information about them as there is nothing worse at a sale than clients getting mixed information, so if a buyer wants to know about the x-rays they come to me.

Who are some of the best mares at Seaton Park Stud?

What is your favourite place to dine after each day?

Magic Time, the dam of the five times Group One winner Kawi. Julinsky Princess, triple Listed winning dam of the dual Group One winner Julinsky Prince. Because we are a walk-in farm our mare population changes every year.

Well that's easy, I'm the sort of person who goes back to the tent with the crew, we have a few beers and then I go home and crash!

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale? We basically give them a 100 day prep, from the beginning of November they are in the boxes, then from the start of December they start an exercise regime.

How does the selling team prepare, do they swot up on pedigrees, x-rays, type, etc so that they have all the information at their disposal to answer questions from potential buyers?

What ignited your passion for horses? I grew up in a little country town and my grandfather had a hill country farm. He was a very good old school stockman and horseman, he started it all, I learned the basics from him. Bluebloods takes a look at Seaton Park Stud's Karaka Premier draft... Outstanding galloper Ocean Park (W.S Cox PlateGr.1, 2040m, Makfi Challenge-Gr.1, 1400m, Caulfield Stakes-Gr.1, 2000m, Underwood StakesGr.1, 1800m, New Zealand Stakes-Gr.1, 2000m) has been well supported by Seaton Park who have four well related colts by him at Karaka.

KARAKA

THE OAKS STUD The Oaks Stud continues to churn out group horses, having sold recent Gr.1 winner Dukedom (passed as a yearling, sold as a two year-old) who won the 2016 Levin Classic-Gr.1 and is now in Hong Kong. The farm continues to put an emphasis on quality and their 2017 draft reflects this with many of their 17 Premier yearlings and 11 Select yearlings being out of group winning mares, or group producing mares. Bluebloods spoke to General Manager Rick Williams.

What have been some of your best horses bred and sold? Seachange (Cape Cross) is the best horse we’ve bred. She was a true champion in every sense of the word. More recently, we’ve had the joy of racing Gr.1 winners Risqué (2015 New Zealand One Thousand Guineas), Recite (2013 Manawatu Sires Produce Stakes, 2014 Levin Classic and third in 2016 Waikato Sprint) and Artistic (2012 New Zealand Oaks). In the last few years we have sold Gr.1 winners Dukedom (2016 Levin Classic), Sakhee’s Soldier (2015 New Zealand Stakes), Shuka (dual Gr.1 winner) and there have been many other group placed horses including Five to Midnight, Flaming, Majestic Moments, Divan and Pemberley.

How do you rate your draft this year? There are many yearlings from group winning mares and group producing mares in this draft, and overall I rate this draft very highly. We are selling several fillies from great families, as well as several nice horses by Reliable Man. The Oaks is the second biggest shareholder in Reliable Man, after Gerry Harvey, and we’ve supported him with some lovely mares including our Gr.1 winner Artistic. Our Premier draft has eleven yearlings by our fabulous stallion Darci Brahma, who keeps producing Gr.1 class horses each season. We have three yearlings by Roc de Cambes

in our Select draft. We sold Roc de Cambes as a yearling, he raced successfully in Japan and we took the opportunity to re-purchase him for stud, and he is now the sire of Australian Gr.1 winner He’s Our Rokkii. The Oaks Stud now stands Niagara, and we have a beautiful colt by him in our Select draft. For buyers looking for a bit of novelty, our first ever white horse is for sale at Lot 775.

Based on your knowledge of buyers and the types they buy, do you pre-determine that certain yearlings may appeal to specific clients and make sure they are aware of this assessment on your part? Personally, I like to inspect horses in peace, so I don’t get in the ear of clients when they inspect our horses. It feels insulting to me to tell people what they want, so I prefer to stand back and give people space. The horses can do the talking, and I just try to be there to answer questions rather than push information. However, I’ve been doing this for thirty years, so I have built up solid relationships with long term clients, and understand the specific types they are looking for. I see the process as both vendor and buyer working together to find the horse that best suits.

Your best moment at the sales?

A good sale is one where all the horses get sold. One of my favourite sales was Maluckyday (Zabeel – Natalie Wood) who sold for $625,000. He was a beautiful horse and I absolutely adored him. He sold well, and lived up to the price, being group placed at his third start, and winning the Gr.3 Lexus Stakes at his eighth start before running second to Americain in the 2010 Melbourne Cup at only his ninth start. He had a year off with a lung infection and was never quite the same, unfortunately, and now lives at Living Legends in Melbourne.

Do you have a favourite racehorse that you have been closely associated with? Seachange, our dual NZ Horse of the Year, is my favourite. She was basically a cripple, born with a very offset off front leg. She made it worse by smashing through a fence and ended up with some ugly scar tissue. Even though her conformation did improve with extensive farrier work, she wasn’t up to sales standard. Throughout her career, we restricted her to only left-handed racing to keep the pressure off that leg as much as possible. In the end, it didn’t matter. She won her first six starts, and in total she won seven Gr.1 races and took us around the world to Dubai and Great Britain.

What ignited your passion for horses? Being born on a farm, I grew up riding horses. Later when I went to university, I started punting and that

KARAKA

VALACHI DOWNS

Established in 2005 by successful businessman and passionate racing fan Kevin Hickman, Valachi Downs sits on fertile ground just out of Matamata.

It did not take long for the picturesque farm to produce a high quality performer, the dual Group One winning O'Reilly mare Shamrocker (AJC DerbyGr.1, 2400m, Australian Guineas-Gr.1, 1600m) raised there and sold under the stud's banner for $65,000 at Karaka Select. Bluebloods had a Q&A session with the stud's Jonathan Scully...

How do you rate your draft this year? We have a nice strong Karaka Premier draft. The Select session yearlings are also a solid bunch though it will be tough to back up on the success we had last year as leading vendors on average with the top and third best sellers.

Who are some of the best horses you have bred and sold? We bred the four times Group One winner Silent Achiever (New Zealand Derby-Gr.1, 2400m, New Zealand Stakes-Gr.1, 2000m, Ranvet StakesGr.1, 2000m, The BMW-Gr.1, 2400m) and at the moment we have a very promising young colt in Savile Row. He has had just four starts, he won at debut and was second in the NZ 2000 GuineasGr.1, 1600m and is the top rated horse heading towards the NZ Derby. We have got a very high opinion of him. We also bred the recent Kilmore Cup-Listed, 1600m winner Hazzabeel who won at Group Three level in Perth last year and he is heading back to that carnival for trainer Ciaron Maher. The Diamond Stakes-Gr.1, 1200m winner Vespa (now at stud at Wellfield) was also bred at Valachi Downs, he was NZ Two-Year-Old Of The Year. As well as Jimmy Rea who has won nearly half a million dollars in Singapore.

Who are your stand-out yearlings for Karaka 2017? We have a lovely O'Reilly colt out of the Danehill mare Sea Of Faith who has produced five winners including the Melbourne stakes placed galloper War Legend. His grandam is the Group One winner Good Faith, dam of the stakes winners Tully Dane and Mygoodgrace and this is the family of the triple Group One winning filly Daffodil. There are also a couple of really nice Tavistock colts (a son of the nine times winning Dancing Dissident mare Danart; half-sister to the dual Group winner Rosina Lad. And a bay out of the Pins mare Leesing from the prolific My Tricia family that produced Lonhro and Grosvenor). The Savabeel colt out of the imported Hawk Wing mare In The Mood is a cracker, probably the pick of our draft. We have his three-year-old half-sister She Brings Joy by Sebring in work and she is one we think highly of. We also have a beautiful Pierro colt out of the O'Reilly mare Briolette from the Eight Carat (to whom he is line-bred 4m x 5f) family. He is an outstanding first foal. We are very happy with the variety of sires represented in our draft. We don't stand any stallions but we have shares in a broad spectrum which gives us plenty of choices. And come sale time we always have a mixture which makes it more interesting for us and for buyers. Bluebloods took a look at the remainder of Valachi Downs' Karaka Premier draft which includes a Medaglia D'Oro colt out of the imported stakes winning Lomitas mare Zaza Top who has already produced four winners including the German Champion3Y0 and Champion Older Male Zazou.

Also of great interest is a Rip Van Winkle colt out of the imported Theatrical mare Eternal Path, half sister to the American stakes winners Awesome Act and Fastest Magician from the internationally prolific Almahmoud family that has produced Northern Dancer, Danehill, Halo and Machiavellian. A chestnut colt by exciting first season stallion Dawn Approach is another one worth looking at, being the first foal for the imported Hurricane Run mare Shower Of Roses, a half-sister to the UK Group Three winner Gravitation from the immediate family of five times Group One winner Fame And Glory. The final Valachi Downs yearling through the Karaka Premier ring for 2017 will be a colt by Montjeu's superb son Camelot out of the French winner Theatre Buff whose Zacinto three-year-old Odeon is showing good ability in the Mathew Ellerton/Simon Zahra stable.

What have been your highlights over the past 12 months? We enjoyed Hazzabeel's Kilmore Cup victory and are looking forward to seeing him return to Perth. The 2000 Guineas was a great race for us with Savile Row finishing second whilst the winner Ugo Foscolo is by Zacinto who Kevin is a major share holder in. Offers came from Asia for Ugo Foscolo but we wanted him to be given every chance for the sake of his sire so Kevin has purchased a majority share and he heads to the Gai Waterhouse stable to be prepared for the Australian Guineas-Gr.1, 1600m. He will race in the Valachi Downs colours so we have a lot to look forward to.

Who are some of the best mares at Valachi Downs? We have Winning Spree, the dam of Silent Achiever as well as Vespa's dam Miss Avalon. And Ugo

Befitting of the stud’s 50th anniversary, the stud will be offering its largest ever Karaka consignment, comprising 91 quality yearlings.

WAIKATO STUD

In 2017, Waikato Stud will bid a final farewell to an old friend with the last crop of yearlings by Champion Sire O’Reilly. The brilliant racehorse became a Champion Sire winning the NZ title on four occasions, as well as Champion Sire in Hong Kong in 2007/08. He left 85 stakes winners, including 12 Gr.1 winners. As a broodmare sire, O’Reilly has already clocked up 53 stakes winners, including 11 Gr.1 winners, so his fillies will also be highly prized here.

Waikato Stud’s graduate list fills many pages with over 30 Group 1 winners. With 12 stakes winners averaged per season, Waikato Stud has risen to be the tour de force at Karaka, with the Leading Vendor title being awarded to the stud in both 2015 and 2016. Impressive recent graduates sold by the stud have included Starcraft, Brambles, Metal Bender, Diademe and Sacred Falls. While other recent Group horses have included Legless Veuve, Hera, Mackintosh, Lincoln Blue to name but a few. Bluebloods spoke to owner Mark Chittick about Waikato Stud’s 2017 draft of 91 yearlings.

How do you rate your draft this year? Befitting of the stud’s 50th anniversary, the stud will be offering its largest ever Karaka consignment, comprising 91 quality yearlings. It’s once again a big draft of young horses that have been bred and cared for by us from day one. There is a huge amount that you just look at and think ‘I’d love to race that!’ Whilst dominated by the progeny of champion sire Savabeel, it is also significantly characterised by the final crop of the stud’s magnificent former sire, O’Reilly.

Who would you say is your standout? I would have to say Lot 109, the Savabeel filly out of our triple Gr.1 winner, Daffodil. We don’t usually offer these fillies but the mare has had five fillies in a row. This filly looks like an absolute runner and surprisingly, I don’t think you will have to wait long for her.

and was the first NZ-bred galloper to win a Gr.1 race in Europe. In more recent times, we have bred and sold the dual Doncaster winner Sacred Falls. He was bought by Guy Mulcaster at Karaka for $160,000 and went on to win four Gr.1 races for Raffles Racing. He was the leading NZ-bred earner to retire to stand at stud with A$4.7 million and we could not be happier with his first crop of foals who arrived in 2016.

Your best moments at the sale. When the last lot sells and we’ve had a great clearance rate. In 2016 we achieved a 91% clearance rate which is something we are extremely proud of. We have a large draft of horses, and each and every one of them has to go up to Karaka and meet the market. When the market responds like this, it is a terrific endorsement of what you are doing.

Iguazu’s Girl, a winning Redoute’s Choice daughter of group winner Iguazu, who has also crossed well with O’Reilly leaving Splashing Out, a group winner whose own daughter is Gr.2 winner Shopaholic. A full-brother to dual Gr.1 winner Costume is Lot 133. By Savabeel, this colt is also a half-brother to stakes winner Masquerade, and to the dam of up and coming Singapore galloper Gr.3 placed Skywalk. Dual Gr.1 winner Legs won two of the most time honoured races in the NZ calendar – the Kelt Capital Stakes and the New Zealand Oaks. She has gone on to leave stakes winner Wolfwhistle, and Gr.2 placed Scrutinize. Lot 255 is her colt by Cox Plate winner Ocean Park. Not only that, but Legs is a halfsister to Gr.1 winner Guyno and boasts Champion 3YO Xtravagant in her family.

Do you have a favourite racehorse?

By Savabeel, Lot 152 is the second foal of a winning O’Reilly mare out of Gr.3 winner and Gr.1 placed Freequent, whose daughter Freequence has left Gr.1 winner I Do and stakes winner Iggi Pop.

Everyone that wins is a favourite but probably at the top of the list would be Alf (Masterclass – Susy’s Magic, by Biscay), who won the Gr.1 AJC Sires’ Produce Stakes.

The first foal of stakes placed Spending is Lot 420, a colt by Savabeel. Spending is a half-sister to Shopaholic, and both are out of Gr.3 winner Splashing Out, from the family of Sacred Falls.

What ignited your passion for horses?

Lady Chaparral would have plenty to talk about without her impressive Gr.3 winning race record. She is a half-sister to Gr.1 winner Bramble Rose, who is the dam of Singapore group winner Sebrose and stakes winner Maules Creek. Also in this family is Gr.1 winner The Filbert. Lot 243 is Lady Chaparral’s second foal, a colt by O’Reilly.

It was the combination of farming and animals really. The great thing about horses is that there is always something to look forward to; be it watching our graduates race on a Saturday, the first foals, the sales, etc.

What have been some of the best horses bred and sold?

It is very easy to identify 14 yearlings with standout pedigrees within Waikato Stud’s draft.

Waikato Stud bred and sold Starcraft for $80,000 to Robt Dawe. He went on to win five Gr.1 races

The full-brother to their young Gr.1 winning stallion Sacred Falls is Lot 205. This O’Reilly colt is out of

A full-brother to Queensland Derby-Gr.1 winner Brambles is Lot 349. This colt by Savabeel is out of group placed Prickle, who has also left stakes winner Lopov from her six foals to race (all winners). Further back, this is the family of Gr.1 winner Slight Chance.

KARAKA

WENTWOOD GRANGE Set over three farms, Wentwood Grange is home to broodmares, foals, yearlings and spellers and the idyllic Cambridge property has proven a fertile ground for future stars of the racetrack.

Run by the Hawkins family, Wentwood Grange has seen its graduates compete at the highest level, success stories including the high class gallopers Kermedec (ATC Doncaster H-Gr.1 and ATC George Main SGr.1) Sacred Elixir (J.J Atkins Stakes-Gr.1, 1600m, Moonee Valley Vase-Gr.2, 2040m), Miss Raggedy Ann (Railway Stakes-Gr.1, 1200m), I Am A Star (VRC Myer Classic-Gr.1) Leigh Valley (Cuddle Stakes-Gr.3, 1600m) and Valley Girl (Herbie Dyke Stakes-Gr.1, 2000m). Wentwood has also enjoyed international success with the terrific Hong Kong galloper Little Bridge winning ten of his 21 starts including the King's Stand StakesGr.1, 1000m at Royal Ascot. Bluebloods enjoyed a Q&A session with Wentwood Grange's Dean Hawkins...

How do you rate your draft this year? It is a strong across the board with some particularly lovely fillies whilst we have probably the strongest group of colts we've ever had for the Karaka Select.

Who have been some of the best horses you have bred and sold? We are proud to be the vendors of five individual Group One winners in recent years. Horses such as Kermedec, Sacred Ilixir, Gust of Wind, Valley Girl and I Am A Star.

What have been your racing and breeding highlights over the last 12 months? Sacred Elixir winning the J.J Atkins Stakes was a real highlight and his form in the spring (including a gallant second in the VRC Derby-Gr.1, 2500m) was

also outstanding. We raced our own Group One filly Valley Girl which was great. And having Kermadec retire to stud at Darley is fantastic. We have a close association with Darley and we have decided to send Valley Girl to him. That is probably mostly an emotional decision but you don't often get opportunities like that, to produce a foal by a homebred stallion out of a home-bred mare. Hopefully we produce another Group One winner!

Who are some of the best mares at Wentwood Grange? We have the dams of Sacred Elixir (the winning Stravinsky mare Baltika, a granddaughter of the great race and broodmare Horlicks), Kermadec (the Listed winning Fuji Kiseki mare Hy Fuji, daughter of Listed winner Hysterical and also dam of the stakes placed Malaysian galloper Good Winning) and Valley Girl (the Cuddle Stakes-Gr.3, 1600m winning Bianconi mare Leigh Valley). We are really lucky with the quality of mares both the stud and clients have at the moment.

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale? We start to handle them as soon as they are weaned. They start a very light preparation in August and come into the boxes in November. They are hand walked and groomed every day and turned back out after lunch.

How does your Karaka selling team prepare and what sort of information do they have at their disposal to answer questions from potential buyers?

We are a family owned and operated stud so we know each of our horses very well. We follow their families closely and we know what the progeny of each of our mares is doing. We are not a stud who buys and trades mares, we take joy from building up families and we follow the progress of each foal with great expectation.

Sales time is a mixture of concentrated commercial activity and the building of friendly client relations. Do you and your team split up responsibilities or is everyone involved in all aspects, what works for you? The sales are always very full on but we are fortunate to have a great team behind us. Most of the hard work is done before the sales so we just try to enjoy it. Last year was great as we had an early lot sell well so the pressure was off! It's a team effort at the sales, we all go where we are needed. We are family so we can all call upon each other and we all trust each other to get the job done.

What is the best advice you can give buyers? I don't think I have any particular piece of advice but I will say that the record of New Zealand bred horses speaks for itself as does the Group One performance of horses from Wentwood Grange.

What ignited your passion for horses? It was there from a young age with Mum and Dad both heavily involved. I have always enjoyed the thrill of a winner, it is a passion that was bred into me. I just love it, we all do.

Wellfield Lodge is offering three yearlings in the Premier sale and nine yearlings in the Select sale

WELLFIELD LODGE Wellfield Lodge has a fine record in producing stakes class yearlings from its farm in Palmerston North. Gr.1 winners Planet Rock (sold for $290,000) and Kirramosa (passed) were both catalogued in Wellfield Lodge’s New Zealand Bloodstock drafts; while spring 2016 stakes winner Anaheim (VRC TCL Stakes) came from the farm’s 2015 draft. Another stakes horse from Wellfield’s 2015 draft is Stephenstihls, while Excelleration from their 2016 draft won on debut as a two year-old in November 2016. Add to this list the likes of Chettak, Ringo, Salamanca, Old Jock, Winter King and Yourein; and the list of graduates produced at this sale looks strong indeed.

What are some of the best mares owned or agisted at your farm?

Bluebloods spoke to Bill Gleeson about the 2017 New Zealand Bloodstock yearling offerings.

Shez Sinsational: 4 times Group 1 winner, champion New Zealand stayer

How do you rate your draft this year?

Zennista: Group winner, Group placed

We have some very nice horses to sell. Our numbers are down from previous years however we have some quality to offer the market.

Akris: Dam of Group 1 winner & NZ filly of Year Planet Rock, Group winner Ringo

And the standouts this year? The three yearlings being offered by Wellfield Lodge in Premier ooze quality in both type and pedigree. A colt and a filly by Fastnet Rock and the opportunity to buy a filly out of Shez Sinsational, one of the most outstanding racemares seen in New Zealand in the last decade, by Wellfield resident stallion Alamosa.

To name a few: Everswindell: Winner Group 2 NZ Cup and multiple Group placings including 2nd in Group 1 NZ 1000 Guineas

Abeautifulred: Multiple Group placed including Group One, 1000 Guineas Dawn Ghost: Group 2 winner and multiple Group placed Fantastic Honour: Multiple Black type placings including 2nd in Karaka million All mares are black type winners themselves or have produced black type performers.

What have been your racing and breeding highlights in the last 12 months?

What sort of preparation do you give your yearlings for the sale?

Wellfield’s Racing team has been performing very well with the standout being Ringo, group winner and Gr.1 placed in the Captain Cook Stakes-Gr.1 in December 2016. We have a number of promising horses about to step up to black type company in New Zealand - Art Deco, Manhattan Street, Stephenstihls and Wafer.

Our yearlings are only boxed for three hours in the morning. We have always preferred to do our yearlings as natural as possible, which has been a successful formula for producing the many sound and outstanding racehorses that have come from the Wellfield yearling drafts over the past ten years.

Sales staff? Training? We have employed many staff who have worked at Wellfield over the past ten years and some of the staff have gone overseas for more experience. We are very fortunate to still have original staff members returning to Karaka to lead the Wellfield yearlings into the sales ring.

The selling team. How do they prepare? Do they swot up on pedigree highlights, Nicks, line breeding, type, x-rays, so that they can have all information at their disposal to answer questions from potential buyers? The principals of the team handle most of the enquiries around pre-sales and at the sales and are very experienced in all aspects of the thoroughbred horse breeding industry. Most buyers know what they are looking for and we always have x-rays and a vet report available for each yearling.

Based on your knowledge of buyers and the types they buy, do you pre-determine that certain yearlings may appeal to specific clients and make sure they are aware of this assessment on your part? We find that most aspects of any sales are now very transparent through pedigree updates etc. I believe the clients who buy from Wellfield now are well versed with pedigrees and the type of horse they are looking for. So on this basis we are happy to assist if required.

APEX RATINGS FOR NEW ZEALAND Highly respected pedigree analyst Bill Oppenheim, formerly of the USA but now resident in Perthsire Scotland, was among the many thoroughbred commentators who felt that there were serious shortcomings in traditional sire lists. However, Bill decided to do something about the situation, so a decade or more ago he developed the first APEX-Annual Progeny Earnings index ratings, which have now become almost universally accepted as one of the best and most reliable indicators of stallion performance. They were not available in Australia until 2006, but with Bill’s kind permission and through our joint venture with The Australian Bloodhorse Review, Bloodhound is now able to present APEX ratings for many countries. Oppenheim decided to divide the population of prizemoney earners in a particular season in each jurisdiction, or country, into three bands. The top 2% of earners are the “A runners” , the next 2% are the “B runners” and the next 4% are the “C runners” . In other words the A+B+C runners combined make up the top 8% (2+2+4) of earners in a particular jurisdiction, country, each season. This masterstroke achieves a number of objectives in one. It largely removes the bias in prizemoney based lists created by a relatively small number of very rich races. It largely removes the regional and political element of stakes races which could be either a regional bias or a national one. Finally it helps to compare stallion merit across jurisdictions, or countries, with vastly differing prizemoney levels. The ratings are calculated in the following way. “A” runners are the top 2% of prizemoney earners in a season, so if a particular stallion has 2% of his runners in a particular period among the top 2% of earners his APEX A rating figure for that period is 1. If he has 10% of his runners among the top 2% his APEX A rating figure is 5. “AB” runners are the top 4% of earners so if a stallion has 4% of his runners

among the top 4% of earners his “APEX AB rating figure is 1. “ABC” runners are the top 8% so if a stallion has 8% of his runners among the top 8% of earners his “APEX ABC” rating is 1. If he had 16% of his runners among the top 8% his APEX ABC rating would be 2. And so on. The ratings can be done in any band individually or in any combination. To give you an idea as to what standard of horses are included in the ratings, in the second last completed season in Australia (2005/06), in that season the top 2% of runners earned over $93,300, the next 2% of runners earned between $55,450 and $93,300 and the next 4% of runners earned between $30,640 and $55,450. In the 2005/06 Australian racing Season there were 31,193 runners, which means there were 619 “A” Runners (2%), 1237 “A+B” runners and 2475 “A+B+C” runners. In addition to the earnings, to qualify for a rating on the main list a stallion must have a predetermined minimum number of starters across a seven year band. The most commonly published lists are based on a minimum of what are called “150 year starters”. If a runner by a particular stallion earns prizemoney in each of the seven years under review he will count as 7 of the 150 “year starters”. Lists can be compiled for a smaller number of starters, also for first and second year sires etc. but will of necessity be less accurate than the main list. So, with APEX ratings, as with any type of sire lists, some skill in interpretation is still required. Perhaps the main thing to be aware of is that some young sires and some sires with limited numbers of runners will not necessarily appear on the lists at all. This does not mean they are not good sires, because when they do make the list, i.e. qualify with sufficient “year starters”, they might very well enter at, or near, the top.

FAMILY MATTERS by David Bay

ALMANDIN COMPLETES a remarkable treble for Monsun

LMANDIN’S last stride win in the 2016 Melbourne Cup was another remarkable highlight in the stud career of his sire Monsun as he has now sired three of the past four winners of the Cup and the dam of the runner-up in the other. Sun Stud’s Fiorente (IRE) started the ball rolling in 2013 after being runner-up in 2012, followed by Protectionist (GER) in 2014, while 2015 runnerup Max Dynamite (FR) (Great Journey (JPN)) is out of his daughter Mascara. While Positano (GB), holds the record as sire of four winners between 1903-1912 (Lord Cardigan, Poseidon, Lord Nolan and Piastre), Monsun joins New Warrior (GB) (The Pearl, Tim Whiffler, Warrior), Gozo (Acrasia, Gaulus, The Grafter), Sir Tristram (IRE) (Empire Rose, Gurner’s Lane, Brew), Zabeel (NZ) (Efficient, Jezabeel, Might and Power) and Desert King (IRE) (triple winner Maykbe Diva) as the sire of three winners. Monsun’s record is even more remarkable as he stood his entire career (1996-2012) at his owner Baron George von Ullmann’s Gestut Schlenderhan in Germany and has had only a handful of runners in Australia including Gr.2 winner and 2016 Melbourne Cup starter Excess Knowledge (ex Quenched by Dansili), who was 16th. Like Almandin (GER), whose dam Anatola is by Tiger Hill (IRE), he is out of a Danehill-line mare. Monsun’s Australian stakes winners also include the 2014 Gosford Gold Cup-LR winner Midsummer Sun (GB) (ex Midsummer by Kingmambo from Modena by Roberto). Others by Monsun now gracing our tracks include the gelded Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.3 runner-up Vengeur Masque (IRE) (ex Venetian Beauty by Lear Fan) and Cox Plate-Gr.1 and Emirates (Mackinnon) Stakes-Gr.1 fourth Vadamos (FR) (ex Celebra Vadala by Peintre Celebre). The latter is an entire and won the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp-Gr.1 (1600m) on September 11 for his Chantilly-based trainer Andre Fabre. Fiorente, who retired to Sun Stud in Victoria in 2014 and stands at $17,600, carries Danehill’s sire Danzig twice via his dam Desert Bloom’s pedigree. She is a daughter Pilsudski (by Polish Precedent by Danzig) and her dam Desert Beauty is by Green Desert (by Danzig). Fiorente was also sharp enough to win an Australian Cup-Gr.1 (2000m) at WFA and also a Feehan Stakes-Gr.2 (1600m) and was third in a Cox Plate-Gr.1 (2040m), Tancred-Gr.1 (2400m) and All-Aged-Gr.1 (1400m). He was rated Australia’s Champion Stayer in 20-13-14 and won $6.2m, finishing in the first three in 13 of 20 starts. Protectionist is also an entire and he has just been retired to stud in Germany after his latest European campaign for Australian Bloodstock, where he won in a Gr.1 in Germany in August. He is from Patineuse, a daughter of Arc winner and former shuttler Peintre Celebre (USA) (Nureyev). His second dam, Parisienne, is by the Habitat horse Distant Relative and his third dam, Poughkeepsie is by Sadler’s Wells, a three-quarter brother

Fiorente (IRE) to Nureyev. Incidentally, Vengeur Masque’s second dam Venise is also by Nureyev. The 2016 Cup runner-up Heartbreak City (FR), who staged a great duel with Almandin over the final furlong, is also out of a Peintre Celebre mare (Moscow Nights) and is also from a notable German sire line, being by the German Derby-Gr.1 and Japan Cup-Gr.1 winner Lando (Acatenango-Laurea by Sharpman). Lando’s second dam Licata is a daughter of Dschingis Khan (Tamerlane), Monsun’s grandsire, while Monsun’s dam Mosella is by Surumu (Literat), sire of Acatenango. They are bred on a reverse cross of the very best German bloodlines. All three of the Monsun-sired Cup winners did their early racing in Europe and Almandin was purchased by a syndicate headed by Melbourne businessman Lloyd Williams after defeating Protectionist in a Gr.2 event at Baden-Baden at just his fifth start in June 2014. But Williams, who landed his fifth Melbourne Cup with Almandin, had to use all his patience as a tendon injury kept the gelding away from the track until June 2016 when he was sixth over 1600m at Flemington. Two unplaced runs, at 2000m and 2040m, followed as trainer Rob Hickmott prepared the horse for the Cup. He won the Listed Harry White (2400m) at Caulfield on September 24 and the Bart Cummings-Gr.3 (2500m) at Flemington on October 2 before beating Heartbreak City and Hartnell (GB) on the first Tuesday in November. Monsun was bred by Gestut Isarland and campaigned by Baron Georg von Ullmann. He captured eight stakes, all Group events in Germany, including three Gr.1, and won $1.7m. The sire of more than 100 stakes winners and a fourtimes Champion Sire in Germany despite covering modest-sized books of mares, he died in September

(Monsun-Desert Bloom by Pilsudski)

2012, aged 22, after being blind in his latter years. His son Novellist (ex Night Lagoon by Lagunas), who won four Gr.1 events in 2013 and was German Horse of the Year, is now at stud in Japan, while his Prix d’Ispahan-Gr.1 (1850m) winner Maxios (ex Moonlight’s Box by Nureyev), whose fifth dam is Natalma, entered stud in Germany in 2014. His other major runners include the sires Manduro (ex Mandellicht by Be My Guest), a dual Gr.1 winner in France and rated the best horse in the world in the 2007 World Thoroughbred Rankings, German DerbyGr.1 winner Samum (ex Sacarina by Old Vic), 2005 German Horse of the Year Shirocco (ex So Sedulous by The Minstrel), whose wins included the Breeders’ Cup Turf. Several of his sons have also excelled as sires of jumpers. His daughters have produced several Gr.1 winners including German Derby-Gr.1 heroes Sea the Moon (Sea the Stars), who retired to Lanwades Stud, Newmarket in 2015 and Pastorius (Soldier Hollow), also winner of the Prix Ganay-Gr.1 and at stud in Germany from 2014. His best daughters include US Eclipse Champion Turf Female of 2011 Stacelita (ex Soignee by Dashing Blade), multiple Gr.1 winner Schiaparelli (ex Sacarina by Old Vic), multiple French Gr.1 winner Silasol (ex Stormina by Gulch) and Ascot Gold Cup-Gr.1 winner Estimate (ex Ebaziya by Darshaan), raced by Queen Elizabeth II. Monsun’s branch of the Blandford male line started in Germany with Tamerlane’s son Dschingis Kan (ex Donna Diana by Neckar), a talented sprinter who also managed to run 1600m in winning the German 2000 Guineas. His son Königsstuhl, sire of Monsun, became the first horse to win the German Three Year-Old Triple Crown and then went

Big Game, Persian Gulf (who also left Derby winner Parthia) and St Leger winner Turkhan. The Aga Khan met with considerable criticism for selling all five of his Derby winners abroad including his three from the Blandford line (Bahram, Blenheim and the latter’s son Mahmoud). Luckily, this line, which had success in Australasia many decades ago, is now enjoying somewhat of a renaissance via Monsun and his sons in Europe. Perhaps Fiorente and other imported sons of this great European sire could do the same here. There is significant inbreeding in Monsun’s pedigree as he carries the sister and brother Kaiserkrone and Kaiseradler (Nebelwurfer-Kaiserwude by Bubbles) 4x4, while his dam has Hyperion 4fx4m (via Suncourt and Aureole) and Ticino (sire of Neckar) 5fx5m. Nebelwurfer, a German 2000 Guineas winner and that country’s Champion Older Male in 1949, is a great-grandson of Teddy and Monsun comes from family 8a, his sixth dam is English bred Morning Breeze (Cameronian-Dawn-wind by Sunstar). This half-sister to the July Cup and National Stakes winner Tiffin (Tetratema) and the Victoria Cup winner Fonab (Abbotts Trace) established the family in Germany and her daughter of 1949 Morchel (by Wilding, a grandson of Herold) is Monsun’s fifth dam. S.H.

Protectionist (GER) on to an outstanding stud career, being Champion Sire three times in an era when the dominant sire was Surumu, Monsun’s broodmare sire and a descendant of the Dark Ronald (Bay Ronald) male line. Free of Northern Dancer, Raise a Native and Nasrullah blood, Monsun is a great-grandson of the July Stakes and St James’s Palace Stakes winner and 2000 Guineas runner-up Tamerlane (by the Coronation Cup winner Persian Gulf and from Eastern Empress by Nearco), himself a grandson of English Triple Crown winner Bahram (BlandfordFriar’s Daughter by Friar Marcus), a half-brother to Irish Derby winner and sire Dastur. Because of the war, Bahram was sold to the US in 1940 for £40,000 after a successful start to his stud career in the UK and was later sold on to Argentina in 1946 for $US130,000 and died there in 1956. Bred by the Aga Khan III (grandfather of the present incumbent) and unbeaten in nine starts, Bahram,

Monsun’s dam Mosella was a Listed winner at 2100m in Germany and Monsun is the best of her six winners with 12 wins (two at two) from 2000m-2400m including the Cologne Preis von Europa-Gr.1 (twice) and the Aral Pokal-Gr.1. He was also runner-up in the Grosser Preis von Baden-Gr.1 and German Derby-Gr.1 and the second top rated three year-old in Germany in 1993. He was also runner-up in a Gr.2 in France. His second dam Monasia (by Italian Gr.1 winner Authi) was also a Listed winner (four wins 1300m2200m) and produced three Listed winners from six foals (all winners).

(Monsun-Patineuse by Peintre Celebre (USA))

a bay with white star and strip, stood 16.2 hands and was a handsome fellow with a placid temperament who was lazy in his work at home and on the track, doing just enough to get the job done. He was the Champion British 2YO of 1934 when he capped his four-win season with success in the Gimcrack Stakes and then Middle Park Stakes and took the 2000 Guineas, Derby and St Leger the following year when his wins also included the St James’s Palace Stakes.

Next dam Monacensia (Kaiseradler) had nine foals and all won including stakes winners Monazit and Monamira and she established a flourishing family with descendants including German 1000 Guineas winner Majoritat (Königsstuhl), German Derby runner-up Malinas (Lomitas), French Gr.2 winner Macleya (Winged Love), German Gr.1 winner Mystic Lips (Generous), Champion German 3YO Stayer Moonlady (Platini) and Japanese Gr.1 winner Eishin Flash (King’s Best). n

His owner described him as “the horse of the century”. Because of his laziness on the gallops, his trainer Frank Butters said, “I never knew how good he was”. Bahram retired to stud in Newmarket in 1936 and with just two crops racing was second leading sire in 1940 and then Leading Juvenile Sire in 1941 and his runners included 2000 Guineas winner and sire

STUD NEWS by David Bay

FIRST CROP

success for young sires W E ARE now more than a third of the way through the new season and youngsters by first crop sires are starting to show their wares. There’s been good news for studs in NSW, Tasmania and WA lately with the first winners by Your Song, Needs Further, Frost Giant (USA) and Gingerbread Man.

Your Song (Fastnet Rock-Zembu by Fuji Kiseki (JPN))

Winning start for Needs Further JUVENILE filly Il Regalo lived up to her seven-length Longford trial win and gave Armidale Stud’s young sire Needs Further his first winner when she scooted away in the Hesketh McCrimmon Handicap (800m) at Launceston on debut on November 9. One of three first starters by the son of Encosta de Lago in the eighthorse field, she won a $10,000 bonus for breeder Max Pearce in addition to the $9100 first prize cheque. Armidale Stud, at Carrick, provided this bonus for the breeder of Needs Further’s first winner and the John Blacker-trained filly, from Your Call by King of Kings (IRE), looks capable of further improvement. She took the 800m scamper in record time of 44.73, beating Dothraki Princess (Lope de Vega (IRE)) and Derasa (Squamosa), with last start Hobart 900m winner Gee Gee Cats (Wordsmith) in fourth spot. “We had no expectations Needs Further would produce early two year-olds. We are delighted his progeny have shown their trainers enough to have a crack at Mowbray’s first juvenile event of the season and Il Regalo’s win is a great start for him,” Armidale’s David Whishaw said. Needs Further’s dam Crowned Glory, a daughter of Danehill (USA) and Zabeel’s half-sister Significant Moment by Bletchingly, won the VRC Bloodhorse Breeders’ Stakes-Gr.3 and was runner-up in the Golden Slipper-Gr.1 and her seven winners also include the Randwick Guineas-Gr.1 and Golden Rose-Gr.1 victor Hallowed Crown (Street Sense (USA)), who stands at Darley’s Kelvinside on $27,500. Needs Further won three of his five starts including the Carbine Club Stakes-Gr.3 (1600m) at Randwick at three and was placed behind Skilled at his only juvenile start. He stands at $3300 and has 52 first crop juveniles. Nowpensioned Encosta de Lago (Fairy King (USA)-Shoal Creek by Star Way (GB)) was Champion Australian Sire in 2007-08 and 2008-09 and his 99SW include sires Manhattan Rain and Northern Meteor (deceased). Il Regalo carries the brothers Fairy King and Sadler’s Wells 3x3 and her dam Your Call, a winner twice at 1200m, is inbred 3fx3f to Habitat. Second dam Elaine (GB) (Common Grounds) is a half-sister to Gr.2 winner and sire Fracas (In the Wings) and from Listed winner Klarifi (Habitat), a daughter of triple Gr.1 runner-up Sorbus (Busted) and from the immediate family of Gr.1 winners Beat Hollow, New Bay, Reefscape, Oasis Dream, Zenda, Kingman and Dariana.

Your Song off the mark WIDDEN’S handsome BTC Cup-Gr.1 winner Your Song (Fastnet Rock-Zembu by Fuji Kiseki (JPN)) had his first winner in early November. The $80,000 Magic Millions buy Bold Kingston scooted over 1050m at Rockhampton to win by 1.5 lengths after a fifth at Doomben on debut on October 1.

Trainer John Zielke had tuned the gelding up for his second start with a 3.25 length barrier trial win over 1270m at the Sunshine Coast in mid-October. His dam Hypatia is a daughter of Distant Music and Danavia, a beautifully bred daughter of Danehill and Scandinavia (Snippets) and from the family of Magnus, All Too Hard and Black Caviar. Bold Kingston carries Danehill 3mx3f, Mr. Prospector 4mx4f and Nijinsky 5m,5fx4f. Gooree-bred Your Song, who stands at $16,500, defeated Rain Affair and Better Than Ready when he won the 1200m Gr.1 and his second dam Wanice (Mr. Prospector) is a half-sister to multiple Gr.1 winner and sire Fantastic Light (Rahy), European Champion Older Horse and Horse of the Year in 2001. Your Song has about 120 first crop juveniles this season including the 735m Randwick trial winner Poetic Charmer (ex Hoss Amor by General Nediym), a $65,000 MM buy trained by Peter and Paul Snowden.

Smiles galore at Yarradale THERE are plenty of smiles at Yarradale Stud in WA after their sires Frost Giant (USA) and Gingerbread Man had their first winners recently. Cool Intrigue won at Ascot for Frost Giant and Achernar Star won at Belmont for Gingerbread Man. Cool Intrigue (ex Enticing Smile by Hussonet (USA)), a $20,000 buy at the Yarradale Stud yearling sale in May, scored in a three-way finish over 1000m and her dam is an unraced half-sister to Listed winner Éclair Mystic both from, SAJC Australasian Oaks-Gr.1 winner Leica Smile (At Talaq (USA)). Her sire Frost Giant (Giant’s Causeway (USA)-Takesmybreathaway by Gone West) won four races (1400m-2000m) including the Belmont Suburban Handicap-Gr.1 in the US and the Killavullan Stakes-Gr.3 and Kilternan Stakes-Gr.3 in Ireland and is a three-quarter brother to stakes winner and sire Breathless Storm (Storm Cat). Second dam Oscillate

(Seattle Slew-Dance Number by Northern Dancer) is a half-sister to Rhythm (USA) and traces to La Troienne. Frost Giant, a $US600,000 Keeneland yearling buy for Demi O’Byrne in 2004, shuttled in 2013 and 2014 (fee $9900) and left 95 live foals. He started his stud career in New York in 2009 and has more than 100 winners ($9.3m), seven of them Listed winners, led by $500,000 earner Comandante (10 wins). Achernar Star (ex Morine by Danetime) won and ran second in two trials during September for Ascot-based trainer Simon Miller before his debut win at Belmont on October 1. He had a length on Little Hercules at the finish and ran 59.87 for the 1000m. He is one of four winners for his dam, the others including WA GuineasGr.2 winner Man Booker (Discorsi). His second dam, stakes placed multiple winner Femme (Surtee), is a sister to WATC Gimcrack Stakes-LR winner and good producer Refemme, both daughters of Guinevere (Agincourt-Rasian by Semipalatinsk), dam of seven winners. Gingerbread Man (Shamardal-Quaffle by Hurricane Sky), whose sire is a former shuttler to Darley and a son of another former shuttler in Giant’s Causeway (Coolmore), a champion sire in the US, was the champion two and three year-old in Singapore in 2010 and 2011, counting the Singapore Guineas, Singapore Three Year-Old Championship, Singapore TC Stewards’ Cup and Magic Millions Juvenile Championship, all Listed, among his 11 wins (1200m-1600m). His dam is a half-sister to QTC Lightning-LR winner Golden Snitch and from the family of Epsom Handicap-Gr.1 winner Iron Horse. Shamardal also sired stallions Lope de Vega, Puissance de Lune, Captain Sonador (deceased), Shamoline Warrior and outstanding mare Faint Perfume. Gingerbread stands at $5500 and has 32 first crop juveniles and 38 now-yearlings. These youngsters, and the second and final local crop by Frost Giant, will be offered at sales in 2017, including the Perth Magic Millions (February 20-21). n

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS by David Bay

FIRST GR.1 WINNERS for Helmet, So You Think

EVERSE shuttlers and multiple Gr.1 winners Helmet and So You Think (NZ) both had their first Gr.1 winners recently but they came in countries outside Australia. Helmet’s winner was first crop northern two year-old colt Thunder Snow, who claimed the Criterium International at SaintCloud, while So You Think’s first southern crop three year-old filly La Diosa won the NZ 1000 Guineas at Riccarton. Helmet (Exceed and Excel-Accessories (GB) by Singspiel (IRE)) entered stud for Darley in Australia in 2012 and in Ireland in 2013 and So You Think (High Chaparral (IRE)-Triassic by Tights (USA), began his stud career at Coolmore Jerrys Plains and then Ireland on a similar time line. So You Think won 14 of his 23 starts including the W.S. Cox Plate-Gr.1 (twice), Mackinnon Stakes-Gr.1, Caulfield Stakes-Gr.1 and Underwood Stakes-Gr.1 for the late Bart Cummings before his sale to Coolmore and transfer to Aidan O’Brien in Ireland. His northern wins included the Tattersalls Gold Cup-Gr.1 (twice), Irish Champion Stakes-Gr.1, Eclipse Stakes-Gr.1 and Prince of Wales’s Stakes-Gr.1. His Gr.1 wins coming from 1900m-2100m. Helmet was outstanding at two and three for Darley and his six wins in 14 starts included the Caulfield Guineas-Gr.1, Champagne Stakes-Gr.1, both at 1600m, and the ATC Sires’ Produce-Gr.1 (1400m). He was unplaced in two northern hemisphere starts.

Thunder Snow His juvenile son Thunder Snow (IRE) (ex Eastern Joy by Dubai Destination (USA)) was bred by Darley and is trained by Saeed bin Suroor and joins Australian Gr.3 winner Archives (Canny Lad) as a stakes winner for his young sire. Thunder Snow was twice placed at Gr.2 level and fourth in the Dewhurst-Gr.1 before his trip to France where he found the 1400m and soft ground to his liking to win by five lengths. He is the fourth named foal of his dam, a winner at 1800m in France who is a half-sister to Gr.1 winner West Wind (Machiavellian) and is also dam of Gr.2 winner and Gr.1 placed Ihtimal (Shamardal), Gr.3 winner First Victory (Teofilo) and Listed winner and Gr.1 runner-up Always Smile (Cape Cross), all fillies. Second dam is Gr.2 winner Red Slippers (NureyevMorning Devotion by Affirmed), dam of 11 winners and a sister to Gr.2 winner and classic placed sire Romanov and half-sister to champion Balanchine (Storm Bird). The late Robert Sangster raced Balanchine and his son Adam stands a close relative at his Swettenham Stud in Victoria in the shape of his young dual Gr.1 Trust in a Gust (Keep the Faith) who is covering his first book this season. Trust in a Gust’s imported dam Subtle Breeze (USA) (Storm Cat) is a three-quarter sister to Balanchine and out of Morning Devotion. Thunder Snow has the half-brothers Lomond and Seattle Slew 4x5, has five lines of Northern Dancer (including the three-quarter brothers Sadler’s Wells and Nureyev 5mx5f,3f) in his six-generation pedigree (and an additional line of his dam Natalma) and

Helmet (Exceed and Excel-Accessories (GB) by Singspiel)

is 6fx6m to Princequillo (with an additional line of his son Price John). His dam has doubles of Nureyev and Raise a Native. Arion Pedigrees credits Helmet with 23 winners of more than $880,000 and as well as his two stakes winners, he also has Gr.3 placed Eqtiraan (Cape Cross) and Mir Hiba (Brief Truce) and Listed runnerup Boater (Storm Cat) among a host of northern juvenile winners in 2016. He is fifth on the first crop sires’ list in Britain with 11 winners of 17 races (to November 14), is leading the list in Ireland (two winners) and third in France (three winners). Orewa, his leading earner in Ireland, is out of a mare by Sadler’s Wells and he also has a Newmarket juvenile winner out of a mare by Montjeu, both giving inbreeding to Sadler’s Wells as Helmet’s dam sire Singspiel is by that sire’s son In The Wings. His Australian winners include Jansz (Hennessy), Achi Baba (Fantastic Light), Spanner Head (Spartacus), Malaise (Quest for Fame) and Exclamation (Octagonal). His fee this season at Darley’s Northwood Park in Victoria is $16,500. Helmet’s sire Exceed and Excel (Danehill (USA)Patrona by Lomond) was Champion Sprinter in Australia in 2003-04 with wins including the VRC Newmarket-Gr.1 and MRC Invitation-Gr.1. He heads the roster at Darley in the Hunter Valley ($110,000)

and was Champion Australian Sire in 2013-14 and has Gr.1 winners in both hemispheres among his more than 110 stakes winners and several sons at stud including Excelebration (IRE) (Coolmore), who has made a bright start with his first northern juveniles in 2016, and Victorian success story Reward or Effort (Chatswood Stud). Helmet’s unraced dam, Accessories, is also dam of Golden Rose-Gr.1 winner Epaulette (Commands), who retired to Darley NSW in 2014; Gr.3 winner and Gr.1 runner-up Bullbars (Elusive Quality), at Highview Stud in NZ and Gr.2-winning filly Pearls (also by Exceed and Excel). Second dam, Anna Matrushka (Mill Reef-Anna Paola by Prince Ippi) was also unraced but produced 11 winners (three stakes winners) and is from a noted German family.

La Diosa So You Think’s talented La Diosa (ex Star Affair by Star Way (GB)) started favourite in the NZ 1000 Guineas after Listed wins in the Canterbury Belle Stakes and Barnswood Farm Stakes and also gave 24 year-old jockey Racha Cuneen and trainers Mandy and Matt Brown their first Gr.1 winner with her 1.5 length victory, her fourth in six starts. She is the second NZ stakes winner for her sire after juvenile filly Gold Rush (Oratorio), who won the Matamata Breeders’ Stakes-Gr.2 last season.

They are among 14 winners (21 wins) of $1.2m for the sire who also has five other black type performers including the Gr.1 placed Inference (Redoute’s Choice), whose second dam is by Royal Academy. He is inbred 4mx5f,4m, to Nijinsky via that horse’s sons Tights and Royal Academy and daughter Dancing Show (second dam of Redoute’s Choice). So You Think’s other stakes placed runners are the Gr.2 placed So Si Bon (Lonhro) and Kaching (Desert Sun), both winners, and the Listed placed filly Conscious (Fastnet Rock). His other winners include So You Too (More Than Ready), Turbulent Air (Piccolo) and Global Thinking (General Nediym. Another winner, Betcha Thinking, has an interesting pedigree as his dam is by Encosta de Lago and his second dam is by Flying Spur. He is inbred 3x3 to the brothers Sadler’s Wells and Fairy King and his dam has the Mr. Prospector mare Rolls 3fx3m via daughter Shoal Creek (Star Way) and son Flying Spur (Danehill). So You Think’s first crop northern juveniles include the Deauville winner Neguev (Bering), whose second dam is by Nureyev, a threequarter brother to Sadler’s Wells (3x3), who won over 1600m at his second start and was placed second on debut at 1500m on the same track, and Marathon Man (Smart Strike), a juvenile winner at 1800m in France on November 5. The recent 1500m Mornington winner So Distinct (Danehill Dancer) is also inbred to Sadler’s Wells (3mx3f) as her second dam Distinctly is by that sire, as is So You Think’s sire High Chaparral. She is also 5mx4f to Shirley Heights, whose son Darshaan is High Chaparral’s broodmare sire and who is also sire of So Distinct’s third dam Infamy.

So You Think belongs to a long line of high class performers by international shuttle success story, the dual Derby and Breeders’ Cup Turf winner High Chaparral (Sadler’s Wells-Kasora by Darshaan), including NZ and Australian Champion Dundeel (Zabeel), who stands at Arrowfield, emerging young sire Monaco Consul (Star Way), who is at Kingstar Farm, Toronado (IRE), shuttles to Swettenham, Contributer (IRE), now covering his first book at So You Think’s birthplace Mapperley Stud in NZ and Redwood, at Gerry Harvey’s Westbury Stud, NZ.

La Diosa’s dam was a Gr.2 winner in NZ and is a half-sister to Champion NZ Three Year-Old Filly The Jewel (O’Reilly) whose two Gr.1 wins also included the NZ 1000 Guineas. Star Affair has produced eight winners including Gr.3 winner Solid Billing (Rock of Gibraltar) and Listed winner and Australian Oaks-Gr.1 third Thy (O’Reilly) and stakes placed Galileo’s Galaxy (Galileo), twice a Gr.1 runner-up in South Africa. Star Affair’s dam, The Grin (Grosvenor), was a Listed winner and has produced 10 winners, three of them stakes winners.

(DVL3UHS

So You Think (NZ) (High Chaparral (IRE)-Triassic by Tights (USA))

So You Think’s dam Triassic (Tights) was a Gr.2 winner of three races in NZ (1400m-2000m) and her eight winners also feature the stakes placed Now You Know (Elusive City) and the dam of Singapore Gr.3 winner Faaltless (Faltaat). His second dam, stakes placed Astral Row (Long Row (GB)), won six races at 1200m and three of her four foals won. So You Think stands at $49,500 at Coolmore, Jerrys Plains. n

Mystery Horse

December

by Andrew Reichard

Bluebloods is pleased to present the twenty-ninth in the series of our regular monthly feature, in which we invite readers to write or email if you think you can correctly identify our monthly “Mystery Horse”. The thoroughbred is one of the best documented breeds of animal in the world and our reference library contains photos and paintings of many of the most influential ancestors since the origin of the breed.

MYSTERY HORSE

Clue This horse had 12 starts as a juvenile, but these were barely 8% of his lifetime starts.

Terms and Conditions

HONOUR BOARD

Answers can be phoned in, emailed or posted. All correct answers received by the 20th of the month will be placed in a random draw which will be conducted by a member of our staff.

Sharyn Batson - Vic. Ian Baird - Vic.

Anyone who wins three times will go onto the Honour Board on this page and become ineligible to win again.

Trevor Johnson - NSW

The publisher’s decision on all matters relating to this quiz will be final, no correspondence will be entered into. The publisher reserves the right to exclude entries at any time. Prizes may be varied at any time at the publisher’s discretion. By submitting an entry contestants automatically agree to theses terms and conditions. Only your first answer is eligible, no further attempts please.

Monthly Prize: Each month’s winner will receive a prize which will be a choice of one of the books or limited edition prints published by Bluebloods which is still in print, not sold out. Monthly winners will be contacted with a range of choices.

LAST MONTH: Answer - Wenona Girl (Wilkes-Golden Chariot by Golden Sovereign) was one of the best mares ever to grace the Australian turf, winning the equivalent of 15 Gr.1 races among her 26 victories from the ages of two to six inclusive. Her epic battles with the champion Sky High were highlights of racing in the early 1960s, the pair clashing 20 times with the score narrowly in the colt’s favour 11-9. Wenona Girl was bred by John Kelly at Newhaven Park, Boorowa in NSW and was instrumental in launching her sire’s wonderful career, as well as establishing Newhaven Park at the forefront of Australian breeding and racing. She was owned by former champion swimmer Bill Longworth and trained by Maurice McCarten whose foreman Neville Begg was later to become a leading trainer in his own right. The great mare was pictured going under the hammer in the Inglis Newmarket sales ring during Easter 1959 where she was the dearest Wilkes sold at 2,100 guineas. Congratulations to our winner Tom Kelly of Suffolk Vale, Boorowa, whose grandfather bred the champion, she has obviously not been forgotten. Honourable mention to Neville Begg who also supplied the correct answer but missed out in the draw. Wenona Girl was a great champion and it is worth mentioning that her daughter Special Girl (by Todman) ran second to the mighty Vain in the 1969 Golden Slipper. Leading thoroughbred historian Graham Caves has written a marvellous book titled “Wenona Girl, the forgotten champion” which has sold out but is occasionally available on the internet.

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS by Dr. Statz

MOTHERS AND

daughters star at Gr.1 level produce a daughter who has also won at the highest level. In the interests of further clarity I have used the average of Timeform ratings of both mother and daughter to decide which combination gets top billing.

To round off this trio of homebred combinations, we have the Aga Khan’s Prix de Diane and Prix Vermeille heroine Daryaba who produced the Hong Kong Vase winner Daryakana.

A quick glance at the table of qualifying dams and daughters does suggest many of these successful combinations have been recent. Indeed, in addition to Found and Minding, we have also witnessed Journey, Rhododendron and Wuheida join this famous club in 2016.

In fourth place on our table are Grey Lilas and her daughter Golden Lilac, with an average Timeform rating of 121. Grey Lilas, one of four Danehill dams in our top 10, won the Prix du Moulin de Longchamp and became dam of the triple Gr.1-winning Golden Lilac, who won the Poule d’Essai des Pouliches and Prix de Diane at three and returned at four to lift the Prix d’Ispahan.

So, here we go, counting back from 10th place we have Zee Zee Top and her daughter Izzi Top with a combined average Timeform rating of 118.5. Both mother and daughter raced in the famous colours of the Weinfeld family’s Helena Springfield Ltd, with Zee Zee Top taking the Prix de l’Opera and her daughter Izzi Top coming out on top in the Pretty Polly Stakes at the Curragh and the Prix Jean Romanet at Deauville. We have two mother-daughter combinations locked in joint-eighth place with an average Timeform rating of 119.5. Montare was a staying daughter of the brilliant Montjeu and she secured the 2006 renewal of the Prix Royal Oak, before going on to produce the 123-rated British Champions Fillies and Mares Stakes heroine Journey (by Dubawi) in 2016. Also on 119.5 are Rumplestiltskin and her daughter Tapestry. 2:57 pm

In third spot are triple Gr.1 winner Banks Hill and her daughter Romantica. Banks Hill, a sister to four Gr.1 winners, plus successful sire Dansili, won the Coronation Stakes, Prix Jacques le Marois and Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf on the way to her excellent 128 rating from Timeform. Her Galileo daughter Romantica, not quite as talented (TF116), won the Prix Jean Romanet. With an average Timeform rating of 123.5 and the runners-up on our leader board are Lillie Langtry and her daughter Minding. Lillie Langtry earned a 120 rating from Timeform after taking the Coronation Stakes and Matron Stakes in 2010. Her second foal Minding has carried all before her in 2016. Voted Cartier Horse of the Year, Minding has won seven Gr.1 races at two and three and must be odds on to add further success next year. Winner of the one-mile 1000 Guineas in May, the 12-furlong Oaks in June and then the one-mile all-aged Queen Elizabeth II Stakes in October stamps her as truly outstanding.

Rumplestiltskin was a top-class Danehill juvenile, taking the Moyglare Stud Stakes and Prix Marcel Boussac, and has spent her breeding life visiting Galileo, by whom she produced several smart runners, including the 2014 Yorkshire Oaks winner Tapestry.

T SEEMS in recent years all around the world racing fans have been treated to the finest fillies and mares. Black Caviar and now Winx in Australia, Rachael Alexandra and Zenyatta in America, and in Europe this year we have seen Found and Minding lift a multitude of big prizes in Europe.

Three mother-daughter combinations are tied for fifth place on our table: in descending order of the daughter’s Timeform rating we have Wince and Quiff, Echelon and Integral, then Daryaba and Daryakana. Juddmonte’s Wince won the 1000 Guineas for the late Sir Henry Cecil and her very first foal Quiff carried the same Juddmonte colours to victory in the Yorkshire Oaks for Sir Michael Stoute.

The question I’d like to address in this column is what have been the best mother-daughter combinations in Europe in the past 25 years or so. I am looking for fillies who have won at Gr.1 level and gone on to

The Cheveley Park Stud homebred Echelon earned her Gr.1 stripes in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown, while her daughter Integral, also a Cheveley Park homebred, took the Falmouth and Sun Chariot Stakes.

But in terms of pure merit she’s not quite as good as the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe heroine Found. Rated 129 by Timeform, Found also won the Prix Marcel Boussac at two and the Breeders’ Cup Turf at three and she ran second in 10 other Gr.1 races. Her dam is Red Evie who earned her 121 rating following her exploits in 2007 when she added the Lockinge Stakes to her earlier Gr.1 victory in the Matron Stakes at Leopardstown. The Red Evie-Found combination has an average Timeform rating of 125.5, which puts this pair on top of the leader board. n

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS by Alan Porter

ALL THE ACTION

HE Breeders’ Cup meeting at Santa Anita provided some exciting racing this year, upsets tincluded and had some big wins for the Fappiano and Sadler’s Wells male lines. The Classic proved a highlight with three year-old Arrogate proving more than a match for older rival California Chrome and a veteran by champion Aussie sprinter Choisir landed the Turf Sprint.

Breeders’ Cup Classic THE Classic was expected to be a match between the five year-old California Chrome, unbeaten this year and officially rated the best racehorse in the world, and the three year-old Arrogate, record-breaking 13.5 length winner of the Travers Stakes-Gr.1 on his previous start, which was also his stakes debut. The race didn’t disappoint, and after California Chrome has been allowed to set a comfortable pace, he appeared to have blunted Arrogate’s challenge when he quickened again in the straight. Remarkably, however, the younger horse found another gear to prevail by a half-length. To place the performance of the two stars in context, it was more than 11 lengths back to the third Keen Ice, who had won the Travers Stakes-Gr.1 over American Pharoah last year. Arrogate is a son of the late Unbridled’s Song and was foaled in 2013. Injuries prevented Unbridled’s Song, a son of the Kentucky Derby-Gr.1 and Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1 victor Unbridled, from the Fappiano branch of the Mr. Prospector line, from fully realizing his potential as a runner, but at his best, in efforts such as the Florida Derby-Gr.1 and the Wood Memorial Stakes-Gr.1, he appeared almost invincible.

Arrogate, ridden by Mike Smith, finishes first in the Breeders' Cup Classic Although they’ve had a tendency to be somewhat brittle, especially if exploited early, Unbridled’s Song has been responsible for a string of exciting dirt runners. He’s been represented by 55 Graded stakes winners, 22 Gr.1, the best known in addition to Arrogate, being Champion Three Year-Old Will Take Charge; Champion Two Year-Old Colt Midshipman; last year’s Breeders’ Cup Mile-Gr.1 hero Liam’s Map; as well as Zensational, Octave, Thorn Song, Splendid Blended, and Graydar. Arrogate’s dam Bubbler was a smart performer in her own right winning six of nine starts, including stakes at Houston, twice, Lone Star and Fair Grounds, and taking third in the Ouija Board Distaff Stakes-Gr.3. What’s more, she has a pedigree that was made to fit Unbridled’s Song. A half-sister to a stakes winner by Unbridled, the sire of Unbridled’s Song, she’s a daughter of Distorted Humor, a horse who’s sired two stakes winners out of Unbridled’s Song mares, and who is a son of Forty Niner, also found in the broodmare sire line of Liam’s Map, and as sire of the second dam of Unbridled’s Song’s three-time Gr.1 winner Zensational. Arrogate’s second dam, Graded stakes placed Grechelle, is by Deputy Minister, who appears in the broodmare sire line of Will Take Charge and other Unbridled’s Song Gr.1 winners Tara’s Tango and Graydar. The third dam, the wonderful Meadow Star, Champion at two and winner of the Acorn Stakes-Gr.1 and Mother Goose Stakes-Gr.1 at three, is by Meadowlake, who is broodmare sire of Unbridled’s Song Graded winner Old Fashioned, and is a son of Hold Your Peace, broodmare sire of Unbridled’s Song

Eclipse Sportswire/Breeders’ Cup

from the Breeders’ Cup

Graded scorers Mission Impazible and Unbridled Energy. To complete the story, the fourth dam is by In Reality, sire of the second dam of Unbridled, and duplicated in eight of Unbridled’s Song’s Gr.1 winners.

Breeders’ Cup Distaff THE Breeders’ Cup Distaff-Gr.1 was another epic battle, with five year-old Beholder getting the better of the previously undefeated three year-old Songbird, also the Champion Two Year-Old Filly of 2015, by the width of a flared nostril. This year Beholder gained admission to a very exclusive club, consisting of performers who have won Gr.1 events at two, three, four, five and six, and she’s also garnered Eclipse Awards as Champion of her sex at two, three and five. Although she fetched $180,000 as a Keeneland September Yearling, it would have been hard at the time to predict Beholder would reach such lofty heights, nor have carried her speed so far. Her sire, Henny Hughes (by Storm Cat’s son, Hennessy) was an early season juvenile sensation, winning his first three starts, including the Tremont Stakes (by six lengths) and Saratoga Special Stakes-Gr.2 by 3.75 lengths, then finishing second in the Hopeful StakesGr.1, Champagne Stakes-Gr.1 and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile-Gr.1. Restricted to sprints at three, Henny Hughes took three more Graded events, including the King’s Bishop Stakes-Gr.1 by 5.25 lengths, and the Vosburgh Stakes-Gr.1, by 2.75 lengths. Retired to stand at Darley, Henny Hughes was a hot item when his first yearlings reached the sales, but quickly fell from favour, and was sold to stand in Australia, where he had been shuttling in 2012. He returned to the US for 2013, then back to Australia,

before standing the 2014 northern hemisphere season in Japan. Though he didn’t prove the font of precocious juvenile stakes winners that might have been hoped, Henny Hughes has sired 29 stakes winners, including in addition to Beholder, the Japanese Gr.1 winners Asia Express and Moanin, and other Graded scorers Merry Meadow, Keiai Leone, Chitu, Henny Hound, Honey Hues, She Digs Me and Academic. Beholder’s dam Leslie’s Lady is by the triple Gr.2 winner, but modest sire, Tricky Creek. Leslie’s Lady was a hard-knocking sprinter who gained a black-type victory as a juvenile in the Hoosier Debutante Stakes. Leslie’s Lady first showed the ability to out produce herself with her 2005 foal Into Mischief. By Harlan’s Holiday, like Henny Hughes a grandson of Storm Cat, Into Mischief ran only six times, but won the CashCall Futurity-Gr.1at two, and at three from three starts took the Damascus Stakes, and ran second in the Malibu Stakes-Gr.1 and San Vicente Stakes-Gr.2. Retired to Spendthrift (in whose colors Beholder runs), Into Mischief has become a hot young sire. Most of the black-type in Leslie’s Lady’s first and second dam is relatively minor, but her second dam, stakes placed One Last Bird, is half-sister to the Californian StakesGr.1 scorer Roanoke, and to Graded stakes placed Last Cause, the third dam of the 2012 Kentucky Derby-Gr.1 and Preakness Stakes-Gr.1 victor I’ll Have Another.

Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile IN the Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile-Gr.1, the two highprofile horses, last year’s Champion Sprinter Runhappy, trying to stretch out, and the 2015 Kentucky DerbyGr.1 third, Dortmund, battled through the early stages before this year’s Kentucky Derby-Gr.1 third Gun Runner took command. However, long shot Tamarkuz was closing fast, and he ran right by Gun Runner (who was to win the Clark Handicap-Gr.1 next time out), for a convincing win. Tamarkuz began his career in England, where he won three of six starts. Shipped to Meydan, after a second on his debut, Tamarkuz won four straight, including the Buri Nahaar-Gr.3, Firebreak Stakes-Gr.3 and Godolphin Mile-Gr.2. Brought to the US off that string last year, Tamarkuz had struggled until taking second in the Forego Stakes-Gr.1 and Kelso Handicap-Gr.2 on his most recent two starts. Tamarkuz’s sire Speightstown earned a Breeders’ Cup Sprint-Gr.1 victory, and a Champion Sprinter title as a six year-old. He has turned out to be a prolific sire of stakes winners and came close to lifting a Leading Sire title in 2013. He’s sired more than 70 stakes winners, and although he’s primarily a speed influence, his offspring have won good races over a wide range of distance, on dirt and turf, and in both the US and Europe. Fourteen of his offspring have won Gr.1 events, including the Jockey Club Gold Cup-Gr.1 winner Haynesfield; Golden Ticket, who dead-heated

in the Travers Stakes-Gr.1; Lord Shanakill, who took the Prix Jean Prat-Gr.1; and Reynaldothewizard, who captured the Golden Shaheen-Gr.1. Tamarkuz is out of the unraced Lemon Drop Kid mare Without You Babe, a half-sister to Travers StakesGr.1 and Cigar Mile Stakes-Gr.1 victor Stay Thirsty, and to stakes winning and Gr.1-placed Andromeda’s Hero and Superfly. The third dam, Make Change, was a stakes winner and multiple Gr.1 placed. The female line traces to Masda, a stakes-winning sister to Man o’War, via a sister to the 1946 Triple Crown hero Assault. Tamarkuz’s pedigree has a version of what, over the years, we’ve come to recognize as a “parallel pattern” in that both his sire and his dam are bred on Mr. Prospector/Storm Bird crosses.

Breeders’ Cup Sprint THE race lost Lord Nelson, four-for-four on the season, with three straight Gr.1 wins, with an infected cut on a leg, but Lord Nelson’s trainer Bob Baffert had a ready replacement in the shape of the flying three year-old Drefong. A 9.5 length scorer on the second of two starts at two, after winning another allowance on debut, Drefong’s only other outing saw him lead from start to finish to take the King’s Bishop StakesGr.1, the premier sprint restricted to three year-olds, by 3.25 lengths. Here he dueled with favoured Masochistic through fast fractions before putting that one away to draw off for a 1.25 length win. Drefong is from the first crop of his sire Gio Ponti, a son of Tale of the Cat out of an Alydar mare from a Californian family. Gio Ponti was a top-class racehorse, a Graded winner from to two to six, Champion Turf Horse at four and five, and Champion Older Male at six. He captured 11 stakes, seven of them Gr.1, including two renewals of the Shadwell Turf Mile-Gr.1, but also two editions of the Man o’ War Stakes-Gr.1 at 11f. He also ran second to Goldikova in the Breeders’ Cup Mile-Gr.1 and second to Zenyatta in an all-weather track renewal of the Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1. Gio Ponti has two other stakes winners in his first crop, including Sir Duddley Digges, successful in Canada’s premier classic, the Queen’s Plate. Eltimaas, the dam of Drefong, never ran, but she is the daughter of another horse who could stretch out in Ghostzapper. He won the Vosburgh Stakes-Gr.1 at 6.5f, but also took the fastest ever renewal of the Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1. Eltimaas is half-sister to Champion Two Year-Old and Breeders’ Cup JuvenileGr.1 scorer Action This Day and out of Najecam, a Graded stakes placed daughter of Trempolino, winner of the Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe-Gr.1 and runner-up in the Breeders’ Cup Turf-Gr.1. Najecam is a sister to Lady Isley, who was Listed placed in France, and who is dam of Lord Admiral, a Group winner in Dubai

and Ireland, and second dam of the siblings Cannock Chase and Pisco Sour, who both took the Tercentenary Stakes-Gr.1, with Cannock Chase adding the Canadian International-Gr.1 and Pisco Sour the Prix Eugene Adam-Gr.2. Drefong’s third dam, Sue Warner, is by the South American Forli, out of the fast and precocious Bitty Girl, a member of the first crop of Habitat, who won the Queen Mary Stakes-Gr.2, Molecomb Stakes-Gr.3 and Lowther Stakes-Gr.3. She produced two stakes winners, and is ancestress of several other talented runners, among them the Arkansas Derby-Gr.1 winner and Kentucky Derby-Gr.1 and Preakness Stakes-Gr.1 second Bodemeister.

Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint IN the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint-Gr.1, last year’s winner Wavell Avenue tried hard to defend her title, but fell three-quarters of a length shy of catching Finest City. A Graded winner sprinting on dirt in the spring, taking the 6.5f Great Lady M Stakes-Gr.2, Finest City then took to the turf, where most unusually, she prepped for a dirt sprint by finishing a close second in the nine furlong John C. Mabee Stakes-Gr.2. Finest City is by the Carson City son City Zip, a precocious two year-old and talented sprinter and a half-brother to Ghostzapper. CIty Zip began his stud career at a very modest stud fee in New York, but moved to Kentucky after Ghostzapper’s Horse of the Year campaign. He has turned into a really good sire of tough and classy racehorses, some who are effective on the turf, and some who can stretch out. Among his best are previous Breeders’ Cup winners, Champion Turf Female Dayatthespa; Champion Sprinter Work All Week; Catch a Glimpse, successful in the Breeder’s Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf-Gr.1 and other Gr.1-winning sprinters Bustin Stones, Palace and Personal Diary Finest City is out of stakes placed Be Envied, a daughter of Lemon Drop Kid. She is a half-sister to Burning Roma, who was beaten a nose by City Zip in the Futurity Stakes-Gr.1, but who was awarded the race when City Zip was taken down for bumping Burning Roma late. The second dam While Rome Burns is a half-sister to the multiple Graded stakes winning Vivano. She is out Fiddlesticks, a Northern Dancer daughter, whose dam, Discipline was a good stakes winner, and was out of the Phipps family foundation mare Lady Be Good. A number of horses from this family have enjoyed success in Europe including Epsom Derby-Gr.1 victor Motivator, star milers Zilzal, Polish Precedent, Intikhab and Posse, Champion Two Year-Old Culture Vulture and Italian classic scorers Menhoubah and Lonely Bird.

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS

All the action from the Breeders’ Cup

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile

Like the Classic winner Arrogate, Classic Empire stems from the Fappiano line through Unbridled branch. His sire Pioneerof the Nile, by the Belmont Stakes-Gr.1 winner Empire Maker, won the Cashcall Futurity-Gr.1 at two, and at three took three Graded stakes events, including the Santa Anita Derby-Gr.1, and ran second in the Kentucky Derby-Gr.1. Classic Empire is from Pioneerof the Nile’s fourth crop, and of course from his second crop, he sired the magnificent Triple Crown laureate American Pharoah. To date, Pioneerof the Nile is sire of 16 stakes winners, including another Gr.1 scorer Midnight Storm, who was from his first crop. Classic Empire is out of the non-winning Cat Thief mare Sambuca Classic and is bred on the same formula as American Pharoah, both being out of mares by sons of Cat Thief’s sire Storm Cat. Sambuca Classic has proved a much better producer than runner, as from three other named foals she is also dam of the stakes winners Anytime Magic and Uptown Twirl. The second dam In Her Glory, a daughter of Miswaki, won the Garland of Roses Stakes, and also ran third in the Acorn Stakes-Gr.1 and Gazelle Handicap-Gr.1. In Her Glory is out of Forever Waving, a sister to Champion Three Year-Old Filly Revidere. Forever Waving’s second dam Alanesian was a high-class runner. She produced a very good mare in Princessnessian, through who she is ancestress of the successful sire Harlan’s Holiday, and made an impact on the breed through her Bold Ruler son Boldnesian, the grandsire of Seattle Slew.

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies THE Juvenile Fillies-Gr.1 lacked a decisive favorite, and was duly won by Champagne Room, the second longest shot in the field. She prevailed by threequarters of a length over the fast closing Curlin filly Valadorna, a maiden winner on her previous start. Champagne Room had broken her maiden in the Sorrento Stakes-Gr.2 on her second outing, but appeared rather exposed after a third in the Del Mar Debutante Stakes-Gr.1 and fourth in the Chandelier Stakes-Gr.1 on her subsequent outings.

Norfolk Stakes-Gr.2 victor and Middle Park Stakes-Gr.1 scorer Radiohead. Bred on a version of the Unbridled/Storm Cat cross that also produced Classic Empire, Champagne Room is one of six stakes winners for Broken Vow out of a mare by Storm Cat or a son, a mating that gives a combination of Nijinsky II and Storm Bird, sons of Northern Dancer, with a similar background.

Breeders’ Cup Turf THE Breeders’ Cup Turf was most notable for an enterprising ride by Seamus Heffernan on Highland Reel, who poached a 2.5 length lead after comfortable opening half mile, then set sail for home in earnest. Flintshire, the top US-trained horse of 2016, did his best to retrieve the deficit, but despite closing determinedly, was still 1.75 lengths back at the wire. For Highland Reel, who has run in no less than seven different countries, including scoring wins in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes-Gr.1, Secretariat Stakes-Gr.1 and Hong Kong Vase-Gr.1, this was a new career high.

Champagne Room is another Fappiano line representative, this time by the veteran sire Broken Vow, a son of Unbridled out of a Nijinsky II mare. Broken Vow has never quite hit the commercial heights, but he’s been a very consistent stakes sire, and has 65 black-type winners to his name, including Gr.1 winners Sassy Image, Unbridled Belle, Rosalind, a fast closing third in this race a couple of years back, and Cotton Blossom.

Highland Reel is by the all-conquering Galileo, and is a brother to Idaho, winner of the Great Voltigeur Stakes-Gr.2, runner-up in the French Derby-Gr.1 and third in the Epsom Derby-Gr.1 this year. One of 12 Gr.1 winners by Galileo from a daughter of Danehill, Highland Reel is out of the SAJC Australasian OaksGr.1 third Hveger. She is a sister to Elvstroem, Champion Older Horse in Australia (four Gr.1 wins), and on his international travels winner of the Dubai Duty Fee-Gr.1, second in the Prix d'Ispahan-Gr.1 and third in the Prince of Wales's Stakes-Gr.1. She’s also half-sister to another horse who clocked up some airmiles in Haradasun, Champion Three Year-Old Colt in Australia, and also successful in the Queen Anne Stakes-Gr.1 at Royal Ascot.

Champagne Room is out of Lucky To Be Me, a daughter of the Storm Cat stallion Bernstein. A winner of three races, and fourth in a stakes event at Saratoga, Champagne Room is a three-quarter sister to the minor stakes winner Inhisglory. The second dam, Belle Erzulie, is an unraced daughter of Pulpit, out of the Known Fact mare Fancy Freda. A winner of three black-type events, including the Honey Bee Handicap-Gr.2, Fancy Freda is a sister to She’s Got The Facts, a stakes winner who appears as the dam of the

The second dam Circles of Gold, by the outstanding Australian sire Marscay, won the AJC Australian OaksGr.1. The family goes back to perhaps the most famous of New Zealand tap-root mares, Eulogy, who was imported from England in 1915. Highland Reel goes back to the branch descending from Gold Vink, his fourth dam, and also ancestress of the brilliant sprinter, Starspangledbanner, a Champion in Europe and Australia, and Golden Slipper-Gr.1 victress Polar Success.

Drefong, ridden by Martin Garcia, wins the TwinSpires Breeders' Cup Sprint

Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf WHILE Dansili’s son Flintshire didn’t succeed in claiming the Breeders’ Cup Turf-Gr.1, his daughter Queen’s Trust did take the Filly and Mare Turf-Gr.1, finishing well to catch favoured Lady Eli, who had made a near miraculous comeback from laminitis, and score by a nose. This was only the second win in eight starts for Queen’s Trust, the first coming in a maiden at Kempton on her debut at two, but on her past three starts she’d run second in the Nassau Stakes-Gr.1, third in the Yorkshire Oaks-Gr.1 and third in the British Champions Fillies and Mares Stakes-Gr.1. Queen’s Trust is the 20th Gr.1 winner for Dansili, who had a previous winner of the Filly and Mare Turf-Gr.1 in Dank. Queen’s Best, the dam of Queen’s Trust, was also a talented performer winning the Winter Hill Stakes-Gr.3, and running second in two other Group events. A daughter of King’s Best, Queen’s Best is a halfsister to stakes winners Urban Castle and Reverie Solitaire, the dam of Group winner Royal Solitaire. The second dam, Cloud Castle, won the Nell Gwyn Stakes-Gr.3 and ran second in the Prix Vermeille-Gr.1 and Yorkshire Oaks-Gr.1. Cloud Castle is a half-sister to a trio of accomplished colts in Warrsan, successful in of two runnings of both the Coronation Stakes-Gr.1 and Grosser Preis von Baden-Gr.1; Luso, a winner of three Gr.1 events in Germany and Italy, including the Italian Derby-Gr.1 and Needle Gun, who won two Group events in Ireland, and who was five times runner-up in Gr.1 events, including Italian Derby-Gr.1 and the St. James’s Palace Stakes-Gr.1. The dam of the quartet, Lucayan Princess, won the Sweet Solera Stakes and is ancestress of several other stakes winners including the French Oaks-Gr.1 and 1000 Guineas-Gr.1 victress Avenier Certain and Mehmas, one of this year’s star European two year-old sprinters. In direct female line she goes back to Quick Change, also the fifth dam of Dansili’s sire Danzig. Queen’s Trust is the best of three stakes winners by Dansili out of KIngmambo line mares, but he’s done well over Mr. Prospector in general, this sire line supplying the dams of 20 of his stakes winners, including other Gr.1 winners Emulous, Proviso, Zambezi Sun and Zoffany.

Eclipse Sportswire/Breeders’ Cup

THE Breeders’ Cup Juvenile-Gr.1 went to Classic Empire who held the late rush of Not This Time, a Giant’s Causeway half-brother to Liam’s Map, by a neck with the third horse, dual Gr.1 winner Practical Joke, 7.5 lengths back. Classic Empire, who looks guaranteed to be Champion Two Year-Old Colt, might well be five-for-five at this point had he not taken a sharp right leaving the stalls in the Hopeful Stakes-Gr.1, unseating his rider in the process. Before the Hopeful, he’d won a maiden and the Bashford Manor Stakes-Gr.3 and afterwards he added the Breeders’ Futurity-Gr.1.

December 2016

Breeders’ Cup Mile LAST year’s Breeders’ Cup Mile-Gr.1 heroine Tepin, who had since added an historic success in the Queen Anne Stakes-Gr.1 at Royal Ascot and taken the Woodbine Mile Stakes-Gr.1 for her third Gr.1 victory over males in a third different country, was back to defend. She gave it gallant try but had to go four wide to make her run, where the five year-old male entire Tourist found a perfect route on the rail. That left Tepin with a couple of lengths to make up, and though she gave it a great try, Tourist was still a half length to the good as he completed the mile in an exceptionally fast 1:31.71. This was the third try in the Mile for Tourist, who finished 13th and eighth in his previous two attempts. He’s been an improved horse this year, taking a second and third in Gr.1 events, before breaking through at the highest level for the first time in the Fourstardave Handicap-Gr.1 at Saratoga.

Tourist is the best of the four stakes winners produced by his dam, Unbridled Melody. A three-time winner by Unbridled’s Song, Unbridled Melody, is a sister to the Hopeful Stakes third Unbridled Express and half-sister to Abbeyville Miss, the dam of Graded winners One Mean Man and Mizz Money. The second dam Skye Castles is by Nijinsky II’s Champion Turf Horse Sky Classic, out of two year-old stakes winner My Sea Castles, herself a three-quarter sister to the July Cup-Gr.1 and Prix de l’Abbaye de Longchamp-Gr.1 scorer Agnes World. My Sea Castles is out of the Musidora Stakes-Gr.3 third Mysteries, also ancestress of Champions Hishi Akebono and Librettist, and Gr.1 winner Dubai Destination.

Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint WHILE for Tourist it was third time lucky in the Breeders’ Cup Mile-Gr.1, the veteran Obviously had taken four straight cracks at that race with a best finish of third in 2012. A blazing front-runner who had eight Graded wins to his credit, including back-to-back tallies in the Shoemaker Mile-Gr.1, Obviously changed targets this time, tackling the Turf Sprint-Gr.1 over Santa Anita’s downhill 6.5f turf course. Rocketing into a daylight lead, Obviously held on to score narrowly from the Speightstown colt Om. Obviously is another credit for Choisir, with whom readers of this column are doubtless very familiar. Obviously is the only winner from four starters from his dam, the unraced Montjeu mare Leala. The second dam Silver Bubble is a sister to the top-class colt, Hawkster, a three-time Gr.1 winner in the US; to Silver Kite, winner of the Prix Yacowlef, and to Silver Lane, who won the Prix de la Grotte-Gr.3, and was also several times Group placed, including when third in the Irish Oaks-Gr.1. Silver Lane went on to become an excellent producer, her offspring including the Japanese sprint star Black Hawk, Japanese stakes winners Kauai Lane and Pink Cameo and Shakespeare, a Listed winner in Ireland.

Eclipse Sportswire/Breeders’ Cup

Improvement with age is something that is typical of the offspring of Tourist’s sire Tiznow, Champion Three-Year-Old Colt, Champion Older Male, Horse of the Year, and twice winner of the Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1. Now 19, Tiznow has sired 13 Gr.1 winners, among them Dubai World Cup-Gr.1 captor Well Armed; Champion Two Year-Old Filly Folklore; Da’ Tara, who took the Belmont Stakes-Gr.1; and Travers Stakes-Gr.1 victor Colonel John.

Irish-trained invader Lancaster Bomber. Oscar Performance is by Kitten’s Joy. A son of Irish Champion Two Year-Old El Prado (by Sadler’s Wells), Kitten’s Joy was Champion Turf Horse in North America in 2004. Initially supported virtually exclusively by his owners Kenneth and Sarah Ramsey, Kitten’s Joy has not only become the dominant sire of turf runners in the US, but earned the Leading Sire title in 2013. Kitten’s Joy has sired 154 stakes winners, including last year’s Champion US Turf Male Big Blue Kitten; Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf-Gr.1 scorer Stephanie’s Kitten; Hawkbill, successful in the Eclipse Stakes-Gr.1 and Tercentary Stakes-Gr.3 this year; Bobby’s Kitten, successful in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint-Gr.1 the previous year, and retires to stud in England for 2017; and Gr.1 scorers Divisidero, Real Solution, Kitten’s Dumplings, Admiral Kitten and Chiropractor. Oscar Performance is a brother to the 2016 Spiral Stakes-Gr.3 winner Oscar Nominated. Their dam, the Theatrical mare Devine Actress, was a Listed winner at Santa Anita. She is out of Devine Beauty, a Mr. Prospector daughter who is a three-quarter sister to the Arlington-Washington Futurity-Gr.3 scorer Scorcer’s Stone, and is out of a sister to the tough Dramatic Gold, an earner of more than $2,500,000. The family goes back to Lady Pitt, the Champion Three Year-Old Filly of 1966. As we’ve mentioned, Kitten’s Joy is a grandson of Sadler’s Wells, and Oscar Performance’s broodmare sire, Theatrical, is by Sadler’s Wells’ three-quarter brother Nureyev. This duo combine in the pedigrees of more good horses than one would care to list. As far as Kitten’s Joy is concerned, 12 of his stakes winners have Nureyev in the dam, including other Gr.1 winners Chiropractor and Divisidero.

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf

Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Filly Turf

THE Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf-Gr.1 saw an impressive effort from Oscar Performance, who closely attended a very strong pace, than stayed on well to score by 1.25 lengths from the closing

WHILE Medaglia d’Oro’s daughter Songbird narrowly lost the Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare-Gr.1, he did gain some compensation on the same day when his New Money Honey finished on well to take the Breeders’

Tourist, ridden by Joel Rosario, wins the Breeders' Cup Mile Cup Juvenile Filly Turf-Gr.1. This was only the third start for New Money Honey, who’d finished second to another Filly Turf contender La Coronel on her debut, then broke her maiden the Miss Grillo Sakes-Gr.3. Medaglia d’Oro, like Kitten’s Joy, is a son of El Prado. He, however, plied his trade on the dirt where he was a high-class performer at three, four and five, his wins including the Travers Stakes-Gr.1, Whitney HandicapGr.1 and Donn Handicap-Gr.1 and he also captured second in the Belmont Stakes-Gr.1, Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1 and Dubai World Cup-Gr.1. Medaglia d’Oro made a tremendous start to his stud career, his first crop including the wonderful Rachel Alexandra, and he’s now firmly established as one of the world’s leading sires. Including shuttle crops sired in Australia, Medaglia d’Oro has sired 94 stakes winners, including in addition to Rachel Alexandra and Songbird, Vancouver, Champion Two Year-Old and Golden Slipper-Gr.1winner in Australia; Passion For Gold, high weighted two year-old colt in France; Kentucky OaksGr.1 victress Plum Pretty, and 10 other Gr.1 winners. New Money Honey, is out of Weekend Whim, a Distorted Humor daughter who was unraced, but is a sister to Any Given Saturday, whose victories included the Haskell Invitational Handicap-Gr.1. Subsequently, he was a rather disappointing sire, but did come up with the Breeders’ Cup Sprint-Gr.1 captor Mongolian Saturday, and Hoppertunity, a dual Gr.1 winner who finished fourth in the this year’s Breeders’ Cup Classic-Gr.1. Weekend Whim is also half-sister to Graded stakes winner Bohemian Lady, whose son Almooonquith, was a Group winner in Dubai and Australia. The third dam, Spectacular Bid’s daughter Wow, was a stakes winner, as was the fourth dam Hooplah. She was a successful producer, her offspring including the Gr.1-winning Afifa and Auction Ring, a speedy and precocious runner in England and later a useful sire. The cross of Medaglia d’Oro with Distorted Humor mares has produced two other graded stakes winners. Distorted Humor is by Forty Niner, and the cross of Medaglia d’Oro with two other sons of Forty Niner produced Rachel Alexandra and Songbird. n

FIRST STAKES

Aspect

OUNG Hunter Valley based sires Pluck (USA) (Vinery) and Monaco Consul (NZ) (Kingstar Farm) were represented by their first stakes winners during the recent Melbourne Spring Carnival. Pluck’s speedy chestnut juvenile son Aspect powered away to win the Maribyrnong PlateGr.3 (1000m), while Monaco Consul’s three year-old daughter Tiamo Grace took out the Wakeful StakesGr.2 (2000m). The Tony McEvoy-trained Aspect (ex Innishbeg by Lonhro) is from the second crop of his sire who is covering at Vinery, Scone this season at $9900. Pluck (More then Ready (USA)-Secret Heart by Fort Wood) counted the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf-Gr.2 (8f) at Churchill Downs and the Summer Stakes-Gr.3 at Woodbine among his three wins, the other being a maiden over 6f at Belmont, all at two. His sire, who also stands at Vinery, is a noted sire of juveniles, among them Golden Slipper winner and sire Sebring (at Widden) and gelded Golden Slipper winner Phelan Ready. More than Ready (Southern Halo-Woodman’s Girl by Woodman (USA)) also had a major success at Flemington when Prized Icon (ex Tropical Affair by Danehill (USA)), winner of the Champagne

Stakes-Gr.1 last season at two, collected the VRC Derby-Gr.1 (2500m) on October 29, to give his young trainer James Cummings his first winner of this classic, a race now won by four generations of his famous training family. He is the second VRC winner for More than Ready after the recently deceased Benicio (ex Mannington by Danehill), who won in 2005. Pluck’s first crop last season included the NZ stakes placed winner Gasoline (Danehill), now racing as Jade Theatre in Hong Kong, NZ winner Pluck That (Dubawi), multiple winner Cogliere (Delago Brom) and South African winner Aussie Austin (Elusive Quality). He now has 17 winners and his runners this season also include the stakes placed juvenile filly Luckie Louie (Clang), runner-up in the Ottawa Stakes-Gr.3 and third in the Gimcrack-LR, Hidden Fortune (Red Ransom) and Chayse ‘n’ Mason (Hamas). Aspect’s dam won five races and $67,000 and her only other foal of racing age is Brown Ben (Big Brown (USA)), a winner over 1300m at Morphettville on October 29. She also has a 2015 colt by Testa Rossa and missed last season. Her dam, Hidden Savings (Secret Savings (USA)-

(Pluck (USA)-Innishbeg by Lonhro)

Nightly Class by Snaadee (USA)), placed at her only starts over 1100m at Ipswich and is also dam of BRC Nudgee Handicap-LR winner Tina Melina (Jet Spur), winner of six races and $352,000. Next dam is the imported Listed winner Class Night (USA) (Graustark-Raise a Ruckus by Raise a Native), a half-sister to Gr.3 winner Tarantara (For the Moment) and Listed winner and sire Bold Ruckus (Boldnesian). Experience proved the key for Aspect as jockey Kerrin McEvoy reported he had performed well in a jump out down the straight while his more fancied stable mate Azazel, who started favourite and dead-heated for fourth, had not been on the track before the juvenile feature. “Aspect’s not a speed horse, so he might get a bit further, he’s got a lovely way about him,” Kerrin McEvoy said. “Aspect really showed the benefit of the jump out, he raced like a professional and when he got to the front went as straight as a gun barrel. He’s a very good quality colt, and we will put him aside and set him for the Slipper or the Diamond in the autumn,” Tony McEvoy said.

Tiamo Grace

Tiamo Grace THE VRC Derby-Gr.1 winner Monaco Consul (High Chaparral (IRE)-Argante by Star Way (GB)), who is covering at Kingstar Farm, Denman on $6600 got a well deserved stakes winner when Tiamo Grace (ex Sicile (FR) by Anabaa (USA)) defeated Sebring Dream in the Wakeful Stakes-Gr.2. It was the filly’s second win in five starts for trainer Darren Weir and she also has two seconds and a third. Monaco Consul filly Honesta (Bradbury’s Luck) was runner-up in the VRC Oaks at last year’s Flemington Cup Carnival and she had also placed second in the Flight Stakes-Gr.1, Tea Rose-Gr.2 and Ethereal-Gr.3. A winner of two races, she has earned more than $500,000. Monaco Consul’s other winners include Beau Rivage (Danehill Dancer (IRE)), Peggy Sue (Danehill Dancer), Monaco Playboy (Orpen (USA)), Favoured Grace (Favorite Trick (USA)), Matty’s Choice (Redoute’s Choice) and the talented Answered (Commands). Tiamo Grace hails from an illustrious family as her third dam Salvora (Spectacular Bid-Grand

YEARLING PREP FEEDING THE MUSCLES by Dr Nerida Richards Equilize Horse Nutrition Pty Ltd

Colic

All the right ingredients for muscle growth

The amount of muscle a horse has is directly proportional to the amount of power those muscles can generate, so it is little wonder that strong, muscular yearlings are attractive to buyers. Much of the feeding and exercise undertaken during the sales preparation of yearlings is focused on increasing muscle mass. It is well known that protein in the diet is important to support muscle growth, but they key to really driving muscle development is in the quality of the protein you use, because not all proteins are created as equal.

For muscles to grow, the amount of protein being made from amino acids and laid down as new muscle fibre needs to outweigh the amount of muscle tissue broken down to supply amino acids for other functions in the body. A diet that provides high quality protein with plenty of the essential amino acids will ‘feed’ muscles the amino acids they need to grow AND supply the rest of the body with essential amino acids, reducing the need for muscle breakdown. The net result is muscle growth.

What is protein?

There are of course many other nutrients needed to support muscle growth including energy, zinc and vitamin B6. So to really support effective muscle development, yearling prep diets need to balanced with the correct ratio of energy to protein (too much energy and not enough protein will result in fat, poorly muscled yearlings, too much protein and not enough energy will result in lean, hard yearlings and a very expensive diet), and the right balance of vitamins and minerals.

Protein is a major component of all tissues including muscles in the body, and is also a part of hormones, enzymes and antibodies. By weight, protein is the second most abundant compound in the body behind water. Proteins are long chains of small molecules called amino acids. As a good analogy, think of amino acids as train carriages that join together with other amino acids to form a protein ‘train’. The amino acid puzzle There are 22 known amino acids which can be joined together in almost limitless combinations to form proteins. Up to 11 of these amino acids can be manufactured by the horse in its body, so they are known as non-essential amino acids. The remaining 11 amino acids are termed ESSENTIAL amino acids. These amino acids cannot be manufactured by the horse and must be supplied in the diet. Protein qaulity The quality of a protein is determined simply by how well the amino acids it contains meets the needs of a horse for these amino acids. Therefore the amino acid profile of a high quality protein closely matches the amino acid needs of a horse while low quality proteins are mismatched with a horse’s requirements. The 3 most limiting amino acids in the equine diet (meaning the amino acids that are likely to become deficient first and limit a yearling’s ability to build muscle) are lysine, threonine and methionine, so the amount of these amino acids in a protein is often used to indicate quality.

Know your protein Different feeds contain different levels of essential amino acids and thus vary in ‘protein quality’. Cereal grains like oats, corn and barley contain lower quality protein than legumes such as soybean, lupins and faba beans. Coproducts like copra meal and rice bran sit in the middle with lower quality protein than legumes, but better quality protein than cereal grains. Of the commonly used protein ingredients in horse feed, heat treated cottonseed meal contains the lowest quality protein of all. Soybean contains the highest concentrations and best combination of many of the essential amino acids and is thus touted as the best quality vegetable protein available. What to look for in yearling prep feed Yearling prep feeds should always contain ingredients with high quality protein to feed the muscles. Look for feeds made with full fat soybean, soybean meal, canola meal, lupins and/or faba beans. Avoid feeds that use cottonseed meal or unnamed ‘vegetable protein meals’ as the protein quality in these feeds is likely to be low and variable. Ideally the feed should

Feeds that indicate ‘ingredients are selected from’ will be made using a least cost production method so the ingredients and therefore protein quality can change from batch to batch which is not ideal for yearlings during a sales prep. Pryde’s EasiFeed Yearling Preperation diets To make yearling prep simple yet effective, Pryde’s have devised a set of diets to suit all types of yearlings going through sales preparation. The diets are based on EasiPrep Concentrate and BioMare Cubes which both contain high quality protein from soybean, lupins and faba beans. The diets are for a 16 month old yearling weighing 435 kg and gaining 0.5 kg/day undergoing a suitable ‘sales prep’ exercise program.

TAX FILE by Paul Carrazzo

ANOTHER ATO

GST registration crackdown T HE most contentious area of horse taxation is whether the breeding and/or racing activity is an income tax “business” or GST “enterprise”. This is so because many people register themselves or related entities (e.g. companies) for GST when they are clearly ineligible “hobbyists” and not a proper GST “business”.

If on an ATO audit this is found to be the case, the GST registration is revoked, refunds clawed back and hefty penalties often result, not to mention the potential ongoing scrutiny that may result in relation to the rest of the person’s tax affairs. Accordingly, when our office finds out the ATO is conducting a special audit project on ABN/GST registrations, we get it out there as soon as possible. By way of background, The Australian Business Register (ABR) receives around 80,000 ABN registrations applications a month. Around 91% of these applications result in registrations being issued on the spot, and the main reason ABNs are not issued for the others is a failure to establish the identity of the people behind the business. The amount of monthly ABN registrations is high and the ATO wants to ensure they are being issued when there is a proper entitlement, i.e. a “business” is being conducted. The ATO has worked with the Australian Bureau of Statistics to pick a representative sample of around 1400 recently issued ABNs so it can review their ABN entitlement. These reviews will inform future focus areas to reduce the number of people applying for and receiving ABNs when they are not entitled.

DISCLAIMER Any reader intending to apply the information in this article to practical circumstances should independently verify their interpretation and the information’s applicability to their particular circumstances with an accountant specialising in this area.

The reviews will focus on ABNs issued for individuals, partnerships and trusts in August and October 2016. If you applied for an ABN via your accountants during this period, they may be contacted and required to provide evidence that you are running a business or taken steps to start a business. I think it’s reasonable to speculate if the ATO finds many wrong registrations during this review its audit activity will escalate in this area. The message is clear, if you’ve registered a horse related business recently, or about to register, make sure you seek proper advice as to the “business” status of your activities.

AROUND THE STUDS by Brian Russell LYNDHURST, the second 60 years

ERA OF

Kruger family’s spectacular winner getters

Better than Ready

NE of the most exhilarating finishes in a major juvenile event on Sydney’s Randwick racecourse was a two horse war in the autumn of 1965 between fillies, Golden Slipper winner Reisling (by Nasrullah sire Rego (IRE)) and the unbeaten queen of Brisbane racing, Eye Liner (by Stardust sire Smokey Eyes (IRE)). This battle came in the Champagne Stakes, an event at that time over six furlongs (1200m), but run at 1600m since 1972. The two year-olds went head to head in the final 100m, but Eye Liner stuck her nose in front on the line, in the process becoming the first Champagne winner to break 1:10 (clocked at a race record 1:09.9). This time was lowered to 1:09.20 by Vain when he won by 10 lengths in the fastest 6f then run by a juvenile four years later. Vain’s time was only 0.1 outside the Randwick course record and only a second outside the long-standing Australian record set by Aurie’s Star.

Deviating from Eye Liner, runner up Reisling (note as a wine, the name is spelled Riesling) in leading all the way in the Slipper ran the fastest time (1:11.1) for the race before it switched to 1200m. Many at the time, myself included, claimed her speed flowed from her 2x3 inbreeding to Nasrullah. She was then registered as being from Golestan Nymph (GB), a mare by the Nasrullah sire Golestan, but it was discovered later that she was from Phoenix Girl (GB), a Nasrullah-free daughter of The Phoenix. Originally imported to Western Australia, the identities of the two mares were switched when they were sent to Hunter Valley studs. However, this “new pedigree” then gave her a 2x4 cross of Nasrullah and his close relative Fair Trial. Eye Liner, Reisling’s nemesis in the Champagne, ranks as one of the most brilliant juveniles bred in Queensland. She won her first nine starts at two,

breaking 60 seconds in Brisbane for five furlongs (1000m), a time rarely bettered by open age performers, and, just prior to her trip to Sydney, lumped a record juvenile weight of 10 stone 12 pounds (69kg) to a six-length victory at Eagle Farm. Eye Liner was rolled for the first time when, at her 10th and final start at two, she tackled the Ahern Stakes at Doomben, but bounced back with wins at her first two outings at three. She went on to finish with 14 wins from 25 starts. Her career as an older performer was dogged by wet tracks. Out of New Venn, a good winner by the speedimparting Fair Trial sire Newtown Wonder (GB), Eye Liner was bred by her owners Perce and Ted Kruger and refocused attention on their stud, the Warwick district Lyndhurst, which they acquired

among a possible world record 58 Smokey Eyes offspring who won 10 or more races. Seventeen of his runners each won 20 plus, including Blunt (37 wins from 85 outings) and Schnell (31 from 175 starts). At least 24 each ran in 100 or more races, one of them, Smokey Aid, appearing 183 times for 12 wins and 40 other places, More than 90% of the Smokey Eyes progeny were sired at Lyndhurst and there were very few race meetings throughout Queensland in his time that didn’t have runners by him. Only a few of his books exceeded 60 and his aggregate of foals was 602, resulting in 556 starters, 460 winners and 2885 wins (2840 in Australia). He was Champion Queensland Sire many times and the leading Australian sire numerically for nine years, including heading this list in 1968-69 with 204 winners, three of them dead-heats. He was the second sire in Australian history to crack the double century, preceded by Widden’s great sire Grafton (GB) in 1909-10 (206 wins, one a dead-heat) and 1910-11 (205, one dead-heat). The Kruger brothers, headed by Percy as the driving force in the horse breeding field, bred a number of the best performers by Smokey Eyes, including two great Queenslanders, Eye Liner and Charlton Boy (20 wins included BATC Doomben 10,000, J.T. Delaney Quality, QTC Sires’ Produce Stakes, Queensland Guineas, AJC Tramway; second twice Doomben 10,000).

Queensland classic winners in 1956 and where the family has reigned as a leader of national significance in thoroughbred breeding for the past 60 years.

Smokey Eyes led the way

Before that, this property from the late 1800s had been a major breeding operation in the McDougall family, a scion of which has his named carried by the McDougall Stakes, an early test of the new two yearolds in Brisbane and which was the first race won by Eye Liner.

FIVE times Champion Australian Sire Star Kingdom (ex Impromptu by Concerto) retired to stud in 1951 and spent all his breeding use life at the Baramul Stud in the Widden Valley, but Smokey Eyes started off in 1953 at T.J. Macknamara’s Highfield Stud at Broadmeadows in Victoria in 1953 and in 1958 moved to Queensland. The Kruger brothers acquired Smokey Eyes (ex Celestial Light by Donatello II) as the foundation sire for the newly acquired Lyndhurst Stud.

When the Kruger family, timber millers and the biggest producers of wooden handles for tools in Australia, of Bundamba, near Ipswich, purchased Lyndhurst, they were already prominent in breeding and racing. They founded the City View Stud at Bundamba in 1944, became long time committeemen at neighbouring Ipswich Race Club and served on the Queensland Breeders’ Association. Percy was the Breeders’ Association president for three terms. After they moved to Lyndhurst, the family intensively redeveloped the property and also transferred three sires, all imports, from Bundamba. Two they had imported, namely Highland Laddie (GB) (1943, Hyperion-Sonsie Wench by Sandwich) and Iran (GB) (1946, Bois Roussel-Stafaralla by Solario) and the other, One Up (IRE) (1945, Stardust-Up and Down by Trimdon), was secured after he had raced here. One Up won the Ascot Handicap at Eagle Farm and included among his progeny Dusty Boots, a winner on the same course of the Brisbane Handicap, and Sir Everest, a winner in Adelaide of the Elder Stakes. One Up’s sire, the Hyperion product Stardust (Hyperion-Sister Stella by Friar Marcus), went on to be the cornerstone of much of Australia’s racing and breeding excellence in the second half of last century through two imported Irish-bred sons, Star Kingdom (born 1946) and Smokey Eyes (1947).

Astute as they were, it is doubtful the Krugers could have ever dreamed the heights this second hand sire would carry them to. This nuggety chestnut with an iron constitution, that saw him become a prominent sprinter in England, competed in 49 races for 10 wins, nine seconds and seven thirds, ruled Queensland as a sire for a dozen years and Australia by winners for nine, leaving a reservoir of breeding stock who shaped much of the breed in the north for the rest of the century. The Krugers got a big bonus when they acquired Smokey Eyes through the success of his Victorian sired progeny. They included New Statesman (15 wins, including the VRC Victoria Derby, VATC Oakleigh Plate, Sandown Cup, MVRC William Reid Stakes, Moonee Valley Stakes, AJC George Main Stakes, second and third MVRC WS Cox Plate), Red Smoke (15 wins, BATC Doomben 10,000, Brisbane 2000), Smokey Jane (VATC Toorak Handicap), Optic Prince (Herbert Power Handicap), Smokey Jane (won VATC Toorak Handicap, placed VRC J.J. Liston Stakes, Edward Manifold Stakes), Ivanhoe (won QTC Sires’ Produce Stakes, Queensland Guineas), Wheat King (won VRC Cantala Stakes) and Small Time (17 wins, 12 in Melbourne, handy sire). Small Time was so tough and durable, he went to the post 22 times as a five year-old. This campaign resulted in six wins, including the VATC Rosny Plate and the Pakenham Cup. He shared with New Statesman being

USING Smokey Eyes, they also bred Intrepid Clipper (won Queensland Derby, third Queensland Oaks) and also Queensland Oaks winners Eye Shadow (19 wins), Bright Shadow (17 wins also included STC Tancred Cup, Brisbane Tattersall’s Cup, third Queensland Derby, fourth Sydney Cup) and Aspalita (10 wins, third AJC Oaks). In addition, Percy Kruger was the registered breeder of the siblings Meanmi Shadow (won the Queensland Oaks) and Ima Shadow (won QTC James Barnes Stakes three times and QTC Exhibition Handicap twice). They were by another sire who did a good job for Lyndhurst, Lysander (GB) (1957, Nearco-Meld by Alycidon) and from Eye Shadow. Also bred at Lyndhurst using Lysander and a Smokey Eyes mare was Amby’s Love, a winner of the Queensland Derby, Toowoomba Cup and QTC Exhibition Handicap (twice). His dam, Perfumed Smoke, was a three-quarter sister to Eye Shadow. Eye Liner, Bright Shadow, Eye Shadow and Perfumed Smoke, were among the many Smokey Eyes offspring used as broodmares at Lyndhurst who played roles in an unprecedented era in Queensland thoroughbred history during the second half of last century. It saw five of the Lyndhurst sires, Smokey Eyes, Hail to Success (USA) (1966, Swaps-Success by Turn-to), Grand Chaudiere (CAN) (1968, Northern DancerLachine II by Grey Sovereign), Head Over Heels (FR) (1971, Baldric II-Fall in Love by Swaps) and Celestial Dancer (IRE) (Godswalk (USA)-Oulanova by Nijinsky) between them claim the Queensland Champion Sire title at least 30 times and the Leading Australia Sire by Winners title in 26 years. Hail to Success supplied 384 foals, 349 starters, 259 winners (37 with 10 or more wins, one 31 wins), 1223 wins; Grand Chaudiere 661 foals, 594 starters, 456 winners (63 with 10 or more wins, top 31), 2163 wins; Head Over Heels, 463 foals, 406 starters, 280 winners (17 with 10 or more), 910 wins; and Celestial Dancer, 1073 foals, 953 starters, 713 winners (51 with 10 or more, one 32 wins), 2900 wins. Recognised as the first sire in the world to have a 100 individual winners in one year, Celestial Dancer set new

Lyndhurst, the second 60 years

Australian records for most wins in a year, tracking up 239 in 1995-96. Two other sires installed at Lyndhurst late last century who proved prolific winner getters were Canadian Silver (CAN) (1988, Geiger Counter (USA)-Cheerily by Drone), 665 foals, 553 starters, 349 winners (12 reaching 10 plus), 1044 wins and Sequalo (1990, Rustic Amber (IRE)-Dash Around by Bending Away (USA)), 1158 foals, 996 starters, 689 winners (29 won 10 or more) and 2433 wins. There are still a handful of runners about by Canadian Silver (died 2008) and a big number by Sequalo, a sire put down in September 14, 2014 and whose Gr.1-winning son Spirit of Boom stands at Eureka Stud in Queensland (from 2014). Sequalo had winners of $2.1m in 2015-16, a year there were also runners by two current Lyndhurst sires, Australian bred Hidden Dragon (1999, Danehill (USA)-Ballroom Babe (NZ) by Citidancer (IRE)) and Drumbeats (2005, Redoute’s Choice-Delicate Choice by Last Tycoon (IRE)). Drumbeats oldest progeny were only three, but Hidden Dragon was again one of Queensland’s leading sires, supplying 85 winners of 145 races and $3,176,228. He has had stakes winners in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Standing with Hidden Dragon and Drumbeats is another Australian bred sire in 2015 newcomer Better than Ready, a More than Ready (USA) winner of eight races, four of them stakes, Gr.1 placed and setter of a new track record for 1200m at Randwick. Better than Ready (ex Sally’s World by Agnes World (USA)) looked after a good quality book of 138 mares in his first season, resulting in an exceptionally high 97% fertility, a result which said much for the skill of the management. Better than Ready appeals as the bedrock of the new century of achievement for the Kruger family at Lyndhurst.

Guiding his destiny are a third generation of Kruger management, the brothers Jeffrey and Griff, under the leadership of their father, Merrell Kruger. Himself a son of Percy, Merrell has been on Lyndhurst for more than 40 years, a period when they were pioneers of monitoring broodmares nearing or during foaling using closed circuit television with infra-red, blood typing foals for parentage validation before it was made

compulsory by the Stud Book and the first to introduce freeze branding. The contributions of the Lyndhurst Stud and the Kruger family saw them inducted into the Queensland Thoroughbred Hall of Fame, one that also hosts Smokey Eyes. There is also a statue of Smokey Eyes on the stud. n

BLUEBLOODS HORSE OF THE YEAR by John Hutchinson HORSE OF THE YEAR

THE MISSING YEARS 1920-1921 - The roaring ’20s

HE 1920-21 season is the earliest to be reviewed in the current Bluebloods HOTY series which will now work its way through the 1920s until the final article for 1929-30 will answer the original question that in the beginning sparked my interest, “How many times was Phar Lap the HOTY”. Big Red has two in the bag already and is favourite for the third in his three year-old year but to win he will need to come from behind at half-time. But before then, before Phar Lap was born, there is the dawn of the golden age of the Australian Turf. Strap yourself in and stay tuned.

THE MISSING YEARS 1920-1921 HORSE OF THE YEAR

1920/21

mic Euryth

ONG before Aquanita or Placid Ark, Northerly, Scenic Blast or Miss Andretti, there was the great Western Australian galloper Eurythmic whose dominant four year-old season (13-12-0-0) in 1920-21 stamps him as clearly the one to beat for the Bluebloods HOTY title that term. But there is a challenger, and a serious one at that, and while our judging panel is at all times unbiased, the interstate rivalry generated by the two great horses at the time certainly brought an added dimension to the racing year. Eurythmic was bred in NSW but owned in Western Australia by industry stalwart, Ernest Lee Steere, and in his first two years of racing the chestnut had won 10 of his 14 starts, including the WATC Western Australia Derby and the Perth Cup in which he dead-heated with the lightly-weighted Rivose. But for the remainder of his outstanding career the horse was trained in Melbourne by the “Wizard of Mordialloc”, trainer Jack Holt, one of the inaugural inductees into the Australian Racing Hall of Fame. Eurythmic therefore had the parochial support of two states not only at the time, but also to this very day. Exactly what the racing public was expecting from Eurythmic come the spring of 1920 is hard to know. The VATC and VRC handicappers had weighted the four year-old on 8st 9lb for the Caulfield Cup and 8st 8lb at Flemington. Three year-olds Artilleryman and Richmond Main ran the quinella in the 1919 Melbourne Cup, both carried 7st 6lb. Eurythmic made his Melbourne debut on September

4, 1920 in the Memsie Stakes when carrying a 7lb penalty over the scale under the conditions of the race. You could say he was the early market mover, but in reverse, drifting from an opening quote of 8/1 to as much as 40/1 before some stable-inspired specking halved that quote. Bookmakers of the day had every reason to fear any market moves from the Holt stable but this came with a double whammy. Timed to precision, and prior to the Memsie Stakes, a commission was launched for Eurythmic to win the 1920 Caulfield Cup in six weeks’ time. The best price on offer was also 40/1. Eurythmic readily landed the odds in the Memsie, coming from off the pace to score easily by three lengths for his seventh win on the trot and, by the end of the day, the horse was the ruling favourite for both Cups. Bookmakers would not be so generous about his chances ever again and only three times in Eurythmic’s final 32 starts was he anything but the public elect. Eurythmic was not seen out again for four weeks when he made short work of winning the October Stakes at Flemington and then a week later took out the Caulfield Stakes just as easily. Clearly Eurythmic had the wood on the local brigade but with the conclusion of the AJC Spring Carnival, sterner tests lay ahead. The NSW invasion was spearheaded by two of best-performed stayers in the land, Poitrel and Kennaquhair, along with the brilliant Epsom winner Greenstead and the AJC Derby winner Salitros. Missing from action in Sydney that spring was the champion Gloaming, who had bled after track work prior to his

scheduled return in the Chelmsford Stakes. The horse was shipped back to New Zealand and continued his winning ways. It would be two years to the day before Gloaming raced again in Australia. The young colt Salitros was the first to tackle Eurythmic and he went to the post as second favourite at 8/1 in the Caulfield Cup, while the “best from the west” had a clear call in the market to start at 6/4, the shortest priced favourite in the history of the race to that time. Midfield early but with the leaders on straightening for home, Eurythmic had the race in hand throughout and he was in no danger down the running to record his 10th straight victory, defeating the fast-finishing lightweight Accrington by 1.5 lengths with the Holt stable mate Tangalooma also running on strongly to be a neck away in third place. Salitros made no show at all and finished an also-ran. The VRC handicapper reacted predictably and penalised the chestnut the full 10lbs for the Melbourne Cup, taking his weight to 9st 4lb, but even so Eurythmic held favouritism at a general quote of 5/1 for the big race, two points ahead of Poitrel. The stage was set for the champions of Sydney and Melbourne to meet for the first time. Poitrel had journeyed to Melbourne previously but injury saw him return to Sydney without racing and so the six year-old entire was making his southern debut when lining up for the Melbourne Stakes on Derby Day. Late to mature, Poitrel first showcased his staying potential as a three year-old when in the space of 10 days he won three races at the 1917 AJC Summer

Carnival, including the prestigious Summer Cup (on protest) and the Tattersalls Cup on New Year’s Day. The following season, Poitrel, starting at 25/1, had upset the champion New Zealand mare Desert Gold in the 1918 Spring Sakes and later in the racing year the St Alwynesired horse added three more long distance weight-forage wins at Randwick to his record and to his growing reputation.

now being asked to carry four pounds over weight-forage for a four year-old, or perhaps it was because in 1919 the three year-olds Artilleryman and Richmond Main had dominated the Cup against the older horses. Or perhaps there were other factors, but whatever the reasons, Salitros is on record as the 5/1 favourite for the 1920 Melbourne Cup only to be one of the first horses beaten.

Another superstar from across the Tasman, Gloaming, had his colours lowered by Poitrel in the 1919 Spring Stakes, before proceeding famously to win his next 19 races in succession. Once again Poitrel proved invincible in Sydney’s marathon weight-for-age events, winning the Randwick Plate in the spring, and then the Autumn Stakes, Cumberland Stakes and AJC Plate, all for the second year running.

There were 23 starters in that year’s Melbourne Cup and more than 109,000 people in attendance to witness one of the great race’s greatest renewals. From the start the pace was on and the field stretched out over 25 lengths along the Maribyrnong River side with Salitros in the leading division, Eurythmic was midfield and Poitrel further back. The race began to take shape on the home turn where Salitros had already dropped out and soon after straightening four horses drew well clear of the rest.

Poitrel’s greatest rival in Sydney was the top class stayer Kennaquhair, runner-up in the 1918 Melbourne Cup before defeating the future champion sire Magpie in the C.B. Fisher Plate, and although he could not master the other horse under the scale Kennaquhair triumphed over Poitrel in the 1920 Sydney Cup, winning a thrilling contest by a neck in record time. Such was the regard for these two magnificent old time stayers that when weights for the 1920 Melbourne Cup were released, Poitrel was assigned top weight of 10st ahead of Kennaquhair on 9st 8lb. Prior to Melbourne, the pair clashed during the AJC Spring Carnival, dead-heating in the Spring Stakes before Poitrel had a decisive victory in the Randwick Plate over two miles. In between those victories, Poitrel had been beaten three lengths by the brilliant miler Greenstead in the Craven Plate, a few days after that horse had won the Epsom Handicap. So that was the strong form Poitrel and company brought to Melbourne for the much-anticipated clash with the great Eurythmic in the Melbourne Stakes. The distance of 10f was thought to favour Jack Holt’s stable star and with local support he went to the post favourite at 7/4 with Poitrel on the next line at 5/2 and Greenstead a half-point longer. As expected, Greenstead led with Eurythmic in close attendance at the home turn with a further four lengths back to Poitrel. In the straight, the confidently-ridden favourite took over at the distance and went on to victory, his 11th in a row, winning with something in hand by three-quarters of a length from Greenstead with Poitrel running on solidly for third place, two lengths away. Round one to Eurythmic and his two adopted states. At the end of the day, the market for the 1920 Melbourne Cup saw the latest turf sensation retain favouritism at 3/1 with Poitrel on the second line at 8/1, where he was joined by Salitros. That colt had belied his Caulfield Cup failure to score impressively in the Victoria Derby. The classic was a very roughly run affair in the early stages and to avoid interference jockey Myles Connell allowed the Sydney colt to take the lead a mile from home and from that point Salitros was always in control to win by a very comfortable margin of three lengths. Even so, it was hard to predict that Salitros would displace Eurythmic as the Melbourne Cup favourite the following Tuesday. Perhaps it was because the latter was somewhat slightly built and, with his penalty, was

On the rails and travelling strongly was the three year-old Erasmus, a stablemate of Poitrel, with Eurythmic and the well-fancied lightweight Queen Comedy on that colt’s outside with Poitrel, despite his impost, coming like a freight train down the centre of the course. At the furlong, Eurythmic could not get to Erasmus nor could Queen Comedy, and it was the champion from Sydney, Poitrel, who did best of all in the critical final stages to win the Melbourne Cup by a half-length from Erasmus with Queen Comedy staying on for third place ahead of Eurythmic with Kennaquhair next. Only Archer and Carbine, and no horse since, have carried more weight to victory in the Cup than did Poitrel in 1920. Sydney now held the bragging rights. Adding to the merit of this famous victory was the fact that throughout his career Poitrel was troubled by feet issues and he raced in the Cup with 14 nails in one shoe. But great horses have a way of overcoming adversity and Poitrel that day was indeed a great horse. Until half an hour or so before the C.B. Fisher Plate the following Saturday nobody knew for certain which horses from the original nominations would stand their ground and contest the 12f weight-for-age contest. In the end it was down to the three chestnuts, Poitrel, Eurythmic and Salitros, and this time Poitrel was the most fancied at 9/10 with a slight call over Eurythmic at 7/4. The race itself was odd by any standards as the Fisher Plate field merely cantered for the opening mile, turning the race into a dash for the cash over the final four furlongs, which was timed to have been run in a blistering 47 seconds. The sprint for home was bound to suit Eurythmic far more than Poitrel but it did not prevent the two stars of the Australian turf from putting on a show for the Flemington crowd, as the former held the favourite’s determined challenge to win by under a length. The overall time was a pedestrian 2:50.5, meaning that the first mile of the race was covered in a bit over two minutes, or the equivalent of two furlongs slower than standard. Eurythmic had drawn ahead 2-1 but depending on which side of the Murray and/or the Nullabor one was from, opinions on their respective merits remained divided. After all Poitrel, as Sydneysiders claimed, had won the main event in exceptional circumstances

which all led to much anticipation ahead of further meetings between the pair in the New Year. The St. George Stakes at Caulfield in mid-February was the obvious race for Eurythmic to commence his autumn campaign, but a most unusual set of events denied the four year-old the opportunity to compete. In brief, a long-running coal strike, dating back almost 12 months, had significantly impacted on Victorian rail transport and the head of the railways decided that trains would not run to race meetings in order to preserve supplies. The Victorian Cabinet then made what seems a drastic decision to place an embargo on metropolitan racing altogether, which meant that the VATC’s feature races such as the Oakleigh Plate and Futurity Stakes in the coming weeks also went by the board as did the first day of the VRC Autumn Carnival. Eurythmic’s return to racing was delayed while Greenstead and many other Sydney horses were sent home without racing. Order was restored for the remainder of the VRC Autumn Carnival (as many a newspaper cynic expected it would be) and Eurythmic made up for lost time with a clean sweep of the Flemington long distance weightfor-age contests, the Essendon Stakes, the Governor’s Stakes and the King’s Plate, scoring with minimal fuss each time, although Accrington ran him to a halflength in the first leg of the treble. Sydney, and the valuable Sydney Cup, now became the focus for the connections of the brilliant four year-old. However, the return clash with Poitrel would not eventuate. The Melbourne Cup winner had returned to racing on the day that his southern rival took out the King’s Plate and over a distance (9f) generally thought to be well short of his best, Poitrel’s class again shown through. Flying home along the rails in the closing stages, Poitrel dead-heated with the 1919 AJC Derby winner Richmond Main with the three year-old Erasmus close up in third place. Bring on Eurythmic! But soon afterwards, Poitrel injured a tendon and his owner-breeders, the Moses brothers of the famed Arrowfield Stud, retired their war horse to the stud where he had been born. From 37 starts, Poitrel had won 17 races (including two dead-heats, both in 192021) and in the racing year under review, the six yearold’s record was 9-4-2-1 for prize money earnings just north of £10,000 (or 10,000 sovereigns as it was recorded in those days). And when Poitrel moved on from racing, only Carbine had earned more on Australian racetracks. There was genuine disappointment in racing circles that the two best horses in the land would not renew their rivalry in Sydney but the presence of Eurythmic at Randwick on Doncaster Day in the Autumn Stakes attracted every bit as much attention as the program’s main event. Again, Eurythmic had an easy assignment dispatching his seven rivals over the 12f course with typical ease to set the scene for what would be his greatest triumph, the 1921 Sydney Cup. Eurythmic was down to carry 8lb over weight-for-age for a four year-old in the two miler, whereas it is interesting to note that when weights for the race were released in January that year Poitrel had been given a massive 10st 9lb and would have met the former on 5lb worse terms than in the Melbourne Cup. But as we

THE MISSING YEARS 1920-1921 HORSE OF THE YEAR

1920-1921 continued

l Poitre know, Poitrel had been retired and Eurythmic’s main opposition in the Sydney Cup was once again expected to come from the three year-old Salitros, who had restored his reputation somewhat by winning the AJC St Leger from the Victorian colt Nautical, after that horse had thrashed him in the Flemington equivalent, the VRC St Leger. The 1920 Sydney Cup winner Kennaquhair carried top weight the following year but he was no longer the same force, while the veteran stayer Arch Marella, the minor placegetter in the 1918 renewal, was solid in the market at 10/1. Eurythmic was ridden by leading jockey Frank Dempsey and as usual he allowed his mount to find his feet in the early stages, settling in the second half of the 17-runner field by the time the runners reached Randwick’s long back straight. What happened next became an integral part of Eurythmic’s legend, but the truth behind the legend depends very much on where you were sitting at the time. To those in the stands, including owner Ernest Lee Steere, the 2/1 favourite’s hopes appeared dashed when the chestnut was seen to lose several lengths six furlongs from home dropping out to a clear last, the victim of severe interference was the cry. As the public’s attention switched to the front runners turning for home and over the rise, old Arch Marella was proclaimed the winner on all sides as he forged clear of the pack, but inside the final furlong, the famous all red jacket of Eurythmic was there coming with an

irresistible rush that would have done Poitrel proud. The Eudorus horse gathered in Arch Marella close to home and went on win the 1921 Sydney Cup by a halflength. There was no interstate parochialism about it, racegoers everywhere acknowledged the champion performance of a champion racehorse. But Frank Dempsey, sitting in the saddle and the one man who would know best, gave a different version of events in the days after the race. The great jockey claimed that Eurythmic had not suffered any interference from other horses in running but that he had reined the favourite back in order to find the rails, planning to work his way through the field while saving ground on the inside. Which is exactly what he and Eurythmic did, moving from last at the half mile to midfield by the turn and from there to the clear outside and from there the pair surged into history with a famous victory. Two days later, Eurythmic rounded out his sensational four year-old season by winning the Cumberland Plate from the improving three year-old David, a horse we will hear more about in the two seasons ahead. Connections of the champion withdrew him from his final Sydney engagement when he came out of that race with a minor complaint. The banter between the Eurythmic and Poitrel supporters carried on for a few more years, the irony being that Poitrel’s greatest performance had been at

Flemington and Eurythmic’s at Randwick, away games for both. At various stages in the 1920-21 season both were deemed to have been the best since Carbine. And, in their own separate ways, Eurythmic up to 12 furlongs and Poitrel beyond that, it is hard to argue. n

NOMINEES Eurythmic Poitrel Postscript: This is gold. We all have our worn out Melbourne Cup DVD. But Poitrel’s 1920 triumph is not there. The 109,000 racegoers on course that day witnessed one of the great Cups, but I suspect only a few of us have ever seen the race since. It is here. Google “British Pathe Melbourne Australia’s Ascot 1921”. Forget the year, it is wrong. There is no sound but the race is undoubtedly Poitrel’s famous 1920 Melbourne Cup. The famous Moses’ colours of yellow, white sleeves, black cap are a giveaway.

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS by Andrew Reichard

NUREYEV

a star of stage, screen and special horses

Nureyev (USA)

udolf Nureyev was a legendary ballet dancer in the second half of the 20th Century. Born in Siberia in the Soviet Union where the tradition of dance and ballet was such an important part of cultural life, he became the first high profile Soviet artist to defect to the West during the Cold War. Nureyev had a feisty, rebellious personality and enjoyed a long and glorious career which included a famous artistic partnership with Dame Margot Fonteyn. The second half of the same century was also the era of the dominance of Northern Dancer in the world of thoroughbreds, with many of his best bred sons being appropriately enough, given the names of famous dancers or theatres or having thespian links. Among the most successful of these we can include Nijinsky, arguably the best known star of the ballet prior to Rudolf Nureyev himself and the closely related pair of Nureyev and Sadler’s Wells. Nureyev, the horse, is by Northern Dancer out of the mare Special (by Forli) while Sadler’s Wells is also by Northern Dancer out of the mare Fairy Bridge (by Bold Reason) who is a daughter of Special, making the two stallions three-quarter brothers. Nureyev and Sadler’s Wells are two of Northern Dancer’s most accomplished sire sons and the closely related pair have proven to be a dynamic duo when combined in pedigrees, although as we shall TABLE 2

The crosses measured are with the subject stallions ANYWHERE in the top or bottom half of the five generation pedigree, not just in the direct male line or broodmare sire line.

see shortly, the most efficacious results occur in a manner that is somewhat of a surprise. As the legendary architect Mies Van de Rohe said “God is in the details”. In the October issue we examined the Class Ratings(CR) and Class Rating Index (CRI) of various thoroughbred sires and particular crosses. To recap briefly, the ratio of Group One (Gr.1) winners to Stakes Winners (SW) in the commercial breeding population is roughly 12.5% and matings which yield 12.5% Gr.1 winners to SW have a CRI of 1 and so on. Table 1, on the opposite page, shows a list of the top 20 all time leading sires of Gr.1 winners (which can also be found on stallions.com.au) and the trend is for the elite sires to have a CRI up to and over double the average, around 2 or 2 plus. Since the October issue was published we have done some further research which has resulted in an improved all time Gr.1 sires list with some slight changes, the most noticeable being that we have now credited Danehill with 89 individual Gr.1 winners in accordance with the generally accepted criteria used in the industry. For a more detailed explanation of the changes please refer to the article accompanying this on “When Group One means Group One.” As we can see, among the 20 all time leading sires of individual Gr.1 winners there is a preponderance of Northern Dancer line stallions including the grand old man himself. Eleven out of the 20 stallions on the list are either Northern Dancer or his direct male line descendants. The Danzig, Sadler’s Wells and Storm Bird lines of Northern Dancer all have multiple representatives while Nijinsky and Nureyev have no further male branches represented. Now comes the interesting part, which is where we examine the interaction in pedigrees between the closely related pair of Sadler’s Wells, with multiple representatives on the leading sires of Gr.1 winners list and regarded as a strong sireline influence, and Nureyev with no sons or grandsons on the top 20 list and widely regarded as a great sire but more influential as an ancestor in female lines, either as a broodmare sire or elsewhere on the bottom half of pedigrees. In order to test these perceptions a little research was undertaken to determine the CRI of the two stallions both as sire and broodmare sire influences and finally to study their interaction when combined in pedigrees. The Table 2 appears left. Nureyev was foaled in 1977 while Sadler’s Wells was foaled a mere four years later in 1981 which for the purposes of this study some 30 years later makes them practically contemporaries. So for the various Nureyev/Sadler’s Wells crosses the results are as per table 3, left.

“Wrapt in a fire, he leaps, he flies” John Shaw Neilson. Just as the great Rudolph Nureyev dazzled audiences with his prodigious leaps, so the thoroughbred

stallion Nureyev dazzles us with his high ratio of Gr.1 winners when he leaps into the top half of a pedigree and when his three-quarter brother Sadler’s Well is found in the bottom half. The CRI for this type of mating is 1.93 which is almost double the 1.04 when the roles are reversed, a surprising finding in the light of Sadler’s Wells’ well recorded dominance as a male line influence.

Sadler’s Wells (USA)

Among the 37 Gr.1 winners with Nureyev in the sire’s ancestry and Sadler’s Wells in the dam’s ancestry we can observe some interesting patterns. Six of the 37 are sired by Zabeel or his sons Savabeel, Reset, Octagonal and Lonhro. A remarkable 15 out of the 37 are sired by Kingmambo or his sons. As both Zabeel and Kingmambo are out of Nureyev mares this is a very clear affinity between sires out of Nureyev mares with a return of Sadler’s Wells in the dam’s ancestry. This can be verified by looking at the outcomes for two of the more specific versions of the Nureyev/Sadler’s Wells cross. Firstly the case where Kingmambo occurs in the sire’s ancestry and Sadler’s Wells in female’s and secondly where Zabeel occurs in the sire’s ancestry and Sadler’s Wells in the female’s. The outcomes for these matings are shown in TABLE C. TABLE C

In these two cases the CRIs of 1.94 and 2.33 are at the upper end of the scale, the ratio of Gr.1 winners to SW being higher than for many of the world’s best sires themselves. Once again Nureyev has taken centre stage, his influence on pedigrees arguably as significant as Rudolph Nureyev’s influence on dance and ballet, especially when performing with Sadler’s Wells. What could be more appropriate for two sons of Northern Dancer. n

n the mid 1970s the Duke of Norfolk’s Committee on the Pattern Of Racing classified the best thoroughbred races into basic categories recognising their relative merit, with the highest ranking being Group One then Group 2, Group 3 and Listed class. Various forms of this method were adopted worldwide and the individual countries were further ranked as Part 1 countries or not, with only a small handful of races from non-Part 1 countries being accorded Gr.1 status.

There’s rather more to the story but that’s a quick summary. To complete the picture researchers in the major racing nations worked retrospectively to classify races for reference purposes. In most cases this process was fairly straightforward although the status of certain races may have changed considerably over a long period of time as the sport evolved. Often this is of relatively little consequence, as the numbers and percentages might be influenced

just as much or even more by other factors such as the ease of transporting mares or the total number of mares being covered in a season or a career. In recent years the internationalisation of racing with the massive increases in prizemoney in nontraditional jurisdictions such as Hong Kong, Japan and Dubai, to name just three, has resulted in the need to reclassify many races and to recognise the merit of the upper level racing in certain countries. This all seems perfectly reasonable and can generally be considered an improvement on the old system. The large international thoroughbred databases such as The Jockey Club Information System (TJCIS) and Arion Pedigrees in New Zealand (there are several others both public and private) try to collect all the information possible in order to present an accurate count of runners, winners, stakes winners and Gr.1 winners. As we move up the scale to Gr.1 winners their accuracy and agreement generally increases with a consensus in most instances. However, there are a few caveats worth considering. The small differences in the number of Gr.1 winners certain stallions are credited with producing mainly affects those that have stood in Japan or South America or have lots of runners in Hong Kong and/or Japan. The very best of the South American stallions tend to score highly, but who is to say they are not worthy, Hussonet certainly proved himself a decent sire when transplanted to Australia. In most cases the record of South American sires, their relative statistical merit and numbers of Gr.1 winners, is a moot point because of their overall low rate of interaction with the world’s major racing and breeding jurisdictions. The case of Danehill is an interesting one, his total number of Gr.1 winners has been assessed as somewhere between 84 and 89. In my previous article about the “Class Rating Index” in our October issue the lower figure of 84 was used, but on further checking with various sources including TJCIS we have decided to use the higher figure of 89 individual Gr.1 winners as the benchmark. Bluebloods’ researcher Wendy Thompson has gone through the list of leading sires of Gr.1 winners worldwide and the latest figures have now been posted on stallions.com.au where they can be found on the home page by clicking on “leading sires”. The lists published there, along with the companion article in this issue have used these latest figures, some may differ slightly from those published in the October issue, but they don’t have a material affect on the various matters under discussion, it has been more a case of “housekeeping” and tidying things up for the sake of consistency. All animals are definitely not equal, the best we can do is to try to make reasonable comparisons between similar classes, whether they are pigs as in Animal Farm or the thoroughbreds we deal with in this publication. n

PEDIGREE ANALYSIS by Peter Jenkins

FIRST SEASON SIRE TITLES a poisoned chalice or crystal ball material? Sire title in anticipation of that success continuing as the progeny progress through their three-year-old and four-year-old careers. But how often does instant success for a stallion’s first crop at two years extrapolate into career-long success ? The aim of this study was to pose that question and examine the results of the Champion First Season Sires as their careers played out. Also, how have the overall leading sires of the past 25 years fared with their first crop as two-year-olds. Did they burst out of the gates with a hiss and a roar or was there a slow but gradual build-up towards sire supremacy ? ach year the battle for Champion First Season Sire honours is closely watched by many in the industry – breeders, agents, trainers, owners and even more intensely by studs and those in stallion ownership. The results are often compared directly with the ranking of yearling sale averages in the previous season observing who has disappointed and who has popped up above the pack.

For the purposes of the study I needed two groups for comparison:

At times, stallion connections ramp up the service fee of any young stallion who can secure a First Season

2 - To compile a “control” group I used the following criteria: Using the same timeframe (1989-90 to 2013-

1 - The 25 Champion First Season Sires from the 1989-90 season to that of 2013-14. I only wanted to include stallions which stood in Australia so in two specific years the runner-up stallion was used instead of the Champion i.e. In 1995 Zabeel was excluded as was Defensive Play in 1997.

14) I scored every stallion which filled the first 3 placings on the General Sires Premiership with a 3-21 rating. When tallied up, any stallion which scored 3 or better was included in the control group. This meant every Champion Sire was included plus the likes of perennial high achievers such as Marauding and Scenic, totalling 14 stallions. For the final 11 slots I used a table based on Stakeswinner-runners percentages over this period, taking the first 11 stallions who met all criteria. These included evergreens such as Red Ransom and Rory’s Jester, current stars such as Snitzel and Medaglia d’Oro, high quality shuttlers like Dubawi, Singspiel, Scenic and Shamardal and a couple of mild surprises with excellent stats such as Danewin, Star Watch and Chief’s Crown. Every one of these eleven stallions had a SWs-runners strike rate of better than 7%. Criteria applicable to both groups were: 1 - Must have been active at stud in 1986 or sooner. 2 - Must have stood at least one season in Australia. 3 - Only Australasian-conceived progeny were used as data. Shuttlers did not have Northern Hemisphereconceived crops counted.

*ranking achieved with first crop of 2yos - All stats correct to Oct 10 2016 The 8 stallions highlighted in yellow were common to the Champion First Season Sires group and “Control Group”. These are the Super Sires ! Five of these won a General Sires title while the other 3 have each finished in the top 3 in the General Sires premiership. A 9th stallion – Marscay – was Champion First Season Sire earlier than the chronological range of the study, before winning a General Sires Premiership within the range of the study.

All stats correct to Oct 10 2016

Interestingly 9 of the 25 stallions (36%) in the Control Group were Champion First Season Sires. Even more significant was the fact that 8 of this group of 9 stallions, who fell within the timespan of the study on both counts, each left at least 6 juvenile stakes performers (stakeswinners or stakesplaced) in their first crop. The exception surprisingly was Marscay who only managed 3 first crop stakes horses although it should be remembered that this crop only totalled 44 foals. This super-group of 9 include Danehill and 3 of his sons – Redoute’s Choice, Exceed and Excel and Flying Spur. Four of this Group were Golden Slipper winners – Flying Spur, Rory’s Jester, Marauding and Marscay while Redoute’s Choice won the Blue Diamond. So more than half of the 9 translated success in this country’s two major Gr1 2yo races into not only First Crop Sire success but overall career success. No wonder phenomenal sums are paid to secure controlling interests in the colts who win these races. A further 3 stallions from the super-group – Exceed and Excel, More Than Ready and Last Tycoon were Group 2 or Group 3 winners at two years meaning only one member of the super-group failed to win a stakes races at two. His name is Danehill and he is some exception to the rule ! The stallions which did not win a first crop premiership but went on to be leading sires comprise a talented group namely Fastnet Rock, Encosta de Lago, Street Cry, Snitzel, Palace Music, Scenic and Lonhro. Of this group however, only Street Cry and Palace Music failed to produce a 2yo stakeswinner in their First Crop. Of the 7 stallions who qualified for the Control Group by dint of their high stakeswinners-runners strikerate, none ever finished in the top 10 on the General Sires list, with the exception of Star Watch (4th). However all placed 4th, 5th or 6th in their First Season Sire list. A rather curious result but proof that even sires which might leave later maturing stock such as Shamardal, Danewin and Dubawi will still show some form as First Crop Sires. In fact with the exception of Singspiel, the other six sires in this Group

all produced a juvenile Group-performer in their first crop. Six of the 25 stallions (24%) were Champion First Season Sire and Champion Sire on the General List. This is a much higher strike rate than some might have expected. Basically once every four years on average, the Champion First Season Sire has gone on to become a leading sire. Interestingly no stallion has achieved this since Exceed and Excel whose progeny debuted in 2007-08. I Am Invincible and Written Tycoon – Champion 1st Season Sires in 2014 & 2011 respectively – can still end that dry run that has existed since Exceed and Excel. Northern Meteor’s opportunity was denied by his early demise. Many of the stallions who could not translate Champion First Season Sire success into a career pattern had interesting stories. Some of these were stallions who left their best performer in their first crop – such as Perugino (Testa Rossa) or Casino Prince (All Too Hard) - or in the case of Rave Report and Victory Prince their first crop revealed their only top performer who happened to be an outstanding 2yo resulting in Ravarda and Tierce, respectively. If you put aside these examples at the bottom end and also the “Magic 9” who featured in both tables, the Champion First Season Sire list has nevertheless yielded some very well-performed stallions such as Royal Academy, Northern Meteor, Choisir, General Nediym, Show A Heart and Strategic plus the pair mentioned earlier who may further their record considerably – I am Invincible and Written Tycoon. Now here’s a somewhat puzzling fact. Of the 8 most recent Champion First Season Sires within the study, only one was actually a Group One winner at 2 years – quite an amazing stat ! The two most recent Champion First Season Sires – Hinchinbrook and Smart Missile – (and who are not counted in the study due to only having a couple of crops racing), also continue this pattern of neither being Group 1 winners at 2 although the former was a Gr2 juvenile winner while the latter was a Gr2 winner at 2 years and

pre-post Golden Slipper favourite. Also only 8 of all 25 Champion First Season Sires in the study were actually Group One winners at 2 years although 20 of the 25 ended their careers as Group One winners on the track. This says more about the overall racing class of the stallion being more important than his own precocity on the track when it comes to Champion First Season Sire potential. Finally, the past 11 Champion First Season Sires (including Hinchinbrook and Smart Missile who were not included in the study), were all foaled in Australia. More Than Ready was the last “foreigner” to capture an Australian First Season Sire title and he is now 19 years of age. In fact 16 of the last 17 Champion First Season Sires are Australian-bred. The inferences to be drawn from this are self evident. Poisoned chalice ? Definitely not ! In summary it would appear from the results of the past 30 years that the Champion First Season Sire title has a better than 1 in 3 chance of revealing a future major sire. Even those who do not go on to become Champion Sires on the General list have a better than 50% chance of making into a good commercial sire. The likely “future failures” among first season sires can often be predicted by their highest earner as a juvenile in their first crop making up a very high percentage (89% plus) of the total earnings of their first crop at 2 years. This research is overlayed by the fact that not every stallion crop is evenly balanced. Some years were vintage in terms of the number of leading colts all retiring to stud such as 2000 when Redoute’s Choice, Commands and Mossman all began their careers while other years the new sire contingent has been underwhelming such as Victory Prince’s opposition in 1987 who was followed on the First Crop Sire list by Prince True, Raise A Cup, Party leader and Hula Chief ! This is simply the luck of the draw. Whether in a “soft” or competitive crop eventually, as their progeny get beyond 3 years, a stallions true worth is soon revealed. n

All money is shown in the currency of the country of racing. Information is supplied by ARION PEDIGREES P.O. Box 941,Cambridge 3450, New Zealand Ph: +64 (0)7 827 7730 Website: www.arion.co.nz Any horse foaled in Australia is termed “Australian-Bred”. Therefore if a New Zealand breeder sends his mare to visit Marscay, and the mare foals to Zabeel while in Australia, the resulting foal is Australian-bred and will appear in this section if it wins. On the other hand, if an Australian breeder should send his mare to visit Zabeel, and if she foals to Marscay while in New Zealand, that foal is New Zealand-bred, and will NOT appear in this section.

The Racing Kindergarten Every month The Racing Kindergarten presents each new 2YO winner since the previous issue from racing conducted in Australia, New Zealand, South-East Asia and South Africa. All 2YOs bred in Australia and New Zealand are included. This overcomes the anomaly created when progeny of Australian based sires are foaled in New Zealand (while the mare is visiting, or if she is permanently transferred) and are thus not regarded as Australian bred. Information is supplied by ARION PEDIGREES P.O. Box 941,Cambridge 3450, New Zealand Ph: +64 (0)7 827 7730 Website: www.arion.co.nz

How to read this section THE Racing Kindergarten lists all 2YO winners this season under their sires with a lot of other useful information. An explanation of the format is as follows: Ordinary winners are shown in light face type and stakes winners are indicated with an asterisk and bold type. The list is in alphabetical order by SIRE of the winner (not by the winners themselves) and is cumulative from the start of the current season. Value of prizemoney to the winner of the race is shown. If the figure 1 appears in brackets [1] it indicates that this is the sire’s 1st individual 2YO winner this season. Other winners by that sire may be in the current issue or they will have appeared in a previous issue of the magazine. For example if the number [6] appears it indicates that there have been 5 previous 2YO winners by the sire this season. If they are not in this issue, then they appear in a previous issue. An example is: *SANZIRO, B c 2001, Danzero-Will Fly, by Will Dancer (FR). [1], 08-Nov-2003: VRC, (Flemington), $99,000.

APEX Ratings for Australia 2016 Highly respected pedigree analyst Bill Oppenheim, formerly of the USA but now resident in Perthsire Scotland, was among the many thoroughbred commentators who felt that there were serious shortcomings in traditional sire lists. However, Bill decided to do something about the situation, so a decade or more ago he developed the first APEX-Annual Progeny Earnings index ratings, which have now become almost universally accepted as one of the best and most reliable indicators of stallion performance. They were not available in Australia until 2006, but with Bill’s kind permission and through our joint venture with The Australian Bloodhorse Review, Bloodhound is now able to present APEX ratings for many countries. Oppenheim decided to divide the population of prizemoney earners in a particular season in each jurisdiction, or country, into three bands. The top 2% of earners are the “A runners” , the next 2% are the “B runners” and the next 4% are the “C runners” . In other words the A+B+C runners combined make up the top 8% (2+2+4) of earners in a particular jurisdiction, country, each season. This masterstroke achieves a number of objectives in one. It largely removes the bias in prizemoney based lists created by a relatively small number of very rich races. It largely removes the regional and political element of stakes races which could be either a regional bias or a national one. Finally it helps to compare stallion merit across jurisdictions, or countries, with vastly differing prizemoney levels. The ratings are calculated in the following way. “A” runners are the top 2% of prizemoney earners in a season, so if a particular stallion has 2% of his runners in a particular period among the top 2% of earners his APEX A rating figure for that period is 1. If he has 10% of his runners among the top 2% his APEX A rating figure is 5. “AB” runners

are the top 4% of earners so if a stallion has 4% of his runners among the top 4% of earners his “APEX AB rating figure is 1. “ABC” runners are the top 8% so if a stallion has 8% of his runners among the top 8% of earners his “APEX ABC” rating is 1. If he had 16% of his runners among the top 8% his APEX ABC rating would be 2. And so on. The ratings can be done in any band individually or in any combination. To give you an idea as to what standard of horses are included in the ratings, in the second last completed season in Australia (2005/06), in that season the top 2% of runners earned over $93,300, the next 2% of runners earned between $55,450 and $93,300 and the next 4% of runners earned between $30,640 and $55,450. In the 2005/06 Australian racing Season there were 31,193 runners, which means there were 619 “A” Runners (2%), 1237 “A+B” runners and 2475 “A+B+C” runners. In addition to the earnings, to qualify for a rating on the main list a stallion must have a predetermined minimum number of starters across a seven year band. The most commonly published lists are based on a minimum of what are called “150 year starters”. If a runner by a particular stallion earns prizemoney in each of the seven years under review he will count as 7 of the 150 “year starters”. Lists can be compiled for a smaller number of starters, also for first and second year sires etc. but will of necessity be less accurate than the main list. So, with APEX ratings, as with any type of sire lists, some skill in interpretation is still required. Perhaps the main thing to be aware of is that some young sires and some sires with limited numbers of runners will not necessarily appear on the lists at all. This does not mean they are not good sires, because when they do make the list, i.e. qualify with sufficient “year starters”, they might very well enter at, or near, the top.

PEDIGREE SPOTLIGHT by Les Young

FLYING ARTIE

FLYING ARTIE Bay colt, 2013 Nearctic

uture Newgate Farm stallion Flying Artie has claims to the title of Australia’s best sprinting three-year-old following his decisive defeat of a star-studded field in the VRC Coolmore Stud (Ascot Vale) Stakes (Gr. 1, 1200m) at Flemington on October 29, 2016. Produced with a strong late run from the rear by jockey Hugh Bowman, Flying Artie downed Astern (second), Star Turn (third), Russian Revolution (fourth) and Extreme Choice (fifth) in a sizzling 1:08.98 to also record some brilliant sectional times in his win. The son of Emirates Park shuttle sire Artie Schiller was coming off a win in the MRC Blue Sapphire Stakes (Gr. 3, 1200m) which was his first start since finishing third to Capitalist and Yankee Rose in the coveted Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr. 1, 1200m) at his final start as a two-year-old. Earlier in Melbourne, Flying Artie had been a fast finishing second to Extreme Choice in the MRC Blue Diamond Stakes (Gr. 1, 1200m) and had taken the MRC Blue Diamond Prelude (Gr. 3, 1100m). Purchased by Luskin Park Stud owner Paul Whelan for $50,000 at the 2015 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, Flying Artie is the fourth Group/Grade One winner and one of 34 stakes winners worldwide for Artie Schiller whose early Australian seasons were spent in Victoria but who in 2016 stood at Emirates Park, Murrurundi, NSW. Also sire in Australia of ATC Rosehill Guineas winner Laser Hawk, Artie Schiller was a top class dirt track performer in the United Stakes, earning more than $US 2 million from 10 wins at around 1600m to 1800m which included six graded stakes events, most important of which was the Breeders’ Cup Mile (Grade 1) at Belmont Park. Artie Schiller is a son of champion US sire El Prado, champion Irish two-year-old of 1991 and as such an untypical son of the great Sadler’s Wells whose progeny were not noted for speed and precocity. Deceased El Prado left 81 stakes winners and is today an important international influence on breeding due to the success of his sire sons Medaglia d’Oro and Kitten’s Joy in addition to Artie Schiller. Flying Artie is the third foal and third winner for his six times winning dam Flying Ruby, a talented multiple winner in Melbourne at distances up to 1600m who gained black type in Tasmania by winning the Bow Mistress Trophy (Listed, 1200m) and registered three other stakes placings. Flying Ruby, by champion racehorse Rubiton, is out of the unraced Brigand mare Parkhill’s Flyer, a half-sister to champion Better Loosen Up, Horse of the Year in Australia where he recorded seven of his wins in Group One contests and also in Japan achieved a famous victory in the 1990 Japan Cup. Each of Flying Artie’s parents is linebred, particularly Flying Ruby who carries a 3m x 3f double of Better Boy, champion Australian sire four times, and a 4 x 3 cross of the Star Kingdom brothers Todman and Noholme, both also champion sires. Pure Fantasy and stakes placed Alecon, respectively the fourth and fifth dams of Flying Artie, were good winners in Melbourne and other black type winners descending from them include All Imagination, Touch of Genius and Moudre while Flying Artie’s sixth dam Boot Maid finished second in the QTC Queensland Oaks though she did not win. At the famous Kia-Ora Stud when owned by Percy Miller and its other notable members include top sprinter Burwanna, Caranna, Plato, Friendly Feeling and Book Link. Note the duplications of foundation mares Sister Sarah and Lavendula in Flying Artie’s seventh generation. Overall Flying Artie has a diverse pedigree which should make him an ideal outcross mate for the many Australian mares by Danehill-line sires so he promises to be a valuable addition to the ranks of NSW stallions but first we look forward to seeing him back on the track next autumn. n
