Hi, Ownership all finalised. Thanks to those who enquired. Cheers,

Hi, Stakesplaced in Australia last season, this five-year-old sprinter/miler has returned to N.Z where he resumed work with a leading Cambridge stable last week. Owner looking to find a racing partner/s for 40%. Shares available in 10% denominations or you may take the full 40%. A 10% stake will incur monthly costs of $250. The intention if the horse finds form when he resumes here in approximately 6-8 weeks, is to campaign him in Queensland over the winter. For more details or to register interest please contact john.duncan@ihug.co.nz Cheers,

Filly is all bit syndicated. Thanks Racecafe and all those who followed-up.

Henri, Generally the stock of Zed can be pretty willing and not the easiest horses to handle. Possibly that maybe something to do with the later crops doing better because trainers have worked them out. Zabeel didn't ëxactly set the Yarra on fire with his first couple of crops and I can recall comments from some well respected trainers a few years later who said it took them a while to get to understand their quirks and train them accordingly, especially the fillies.

Update: The fillys full brother sold for $240,000 at the Ready to Run Sale earlier this week and will be trained by Gai Waterhouse. Respected judges feel our filly is the equal of him on type at the same age. You can get in contact via the email above.

I have racing shares available in a half sister to a Group 1 winner and two stakesplaced horses. She's a yearling filly by a successful Australian stallion and will go into training with Andrew Forsman and Murray Baker next year. Her breeder who is keeping a racing share will lease her for three racing seasons commencing with the 2014/15 season when she will be two. Shares are available in 10% denominations of $50 per week which should cover all breaking in and training expenses quite comfortably. Contributions need to commence from 1 January 2014. There is no right of purchase as the owner wishes to bred from her. This is a great opportunity to come in on a very well bred filly with a group of genuinely passionate racing folk. She is curently spelling in Cambridge. Her full brother breezed up very well at Ready to Run Sale gallops the other day. Anyone interested, drop me a line at john.duncan@ihug.co.nz for more details.
