...He said his life was changed forever when his stayer Brew won the 2000 Melbourne Cup, wearing No.24 and jumping from barrier 24.
“When you go overseas, or no matter where you go, you’re known as winning a Melbourne Cup. That’s the sort of race it is,” Moroney told this masthead last year.
“Our grandparents bred one, and so from the time we were old enough to talk and walk, we were brought up on the Melbourne Cup, on Hi Jinx’s win in 1960.”Moroney once revealed he had an eerie premonition before the 2000 race.
“A few years earlier I’d dreamed that I trained the Melbourne Cup winner – and I dreamed it was Brew,” he told the VRC website.
“I remember telling my wife that I’d dreamed that I won by two lengths with Brew who was No.24. My wife said, ‘Who is Brew?’

Attached is the pedigree of Move to Strike - the newest group 1 winner for the no 22 Eulogy family, out of a 1st dam by influential dam sire Shamadal, from a Generous mare, from a Danehill mare, from a Marscay mare....also even a star kingdon mare tracing back to Eulogy herself...representing a power house of damsires ...
Personally i think Shamadal may do better as a damsire than as a sire or sires (noting Darley who are clearly a better breeder than i am are betting big that i am wrong) - its just a hunch of mine and still trying to work out why...but im breeding accordingly.
likely future sire in NZ?

Well done Dopey on another nice win. She looks to have strengthened and you should be in for a good prep.
Thank you for taking the time to reinvigorate d this discussion- yes much stronger this time in at the business end.
Turf Fire didn’t mature until 5 and she’s the same. A fast but later maturing family.
She missed to Per Incanto last year, but in foal this year to Ribchester who is outperforming and under the radar somewhat at the moment - awaiting nz progeny.her sister is in foal to Hello Youmzain which is a loverly mating: on type and pedigree…
another full - Grassburn - is in the same stable…out in Autumn- taking time like the rest of them.

I always enjoyed legging his dad up on horses at Riccarton - strike rate was high.

Staphanos, profondo, and hello Youmzain for me… all have some quality about them. Others spoke about Santos being strong (didn’t see him)

A source of such an approach is obvious Hello Youmzain in NZ.
