  1. The scheme is 10% on stakes ( not just wins) from all races in NZ. Auckland Reactor is on the list of NZ bred Stallions. As for the breeding entity of Baltimore Jill does have a change to it. She was bred with partners but the first person named of that is still the owner of the dam who is still breeding. So do you think it is fair that a part of the previous entity may now no longer be breeding but the principle person misses out ? (Even on a owner/ breeder percentage) . That person is still breeding. This is more a disincentive to breed and have less people involved. The complete opposite of what we want to achieve. More owners breeding. We don't know the particular circumstances of the breeder but going by the Stallions used to the Dam, it has been to mainly the lower ranked Stallions. BIS would not likely have been used as mare missed and no return the previous 2 years. Baltimore Jill is raced by one ( with others) of the breeders entities Breeders ( not the principle ).
  2. Has any breeding bonuses been attached to any horses you have bred? I was looking through NZ bred horses placed yesterday and I saw Baltimore Jill (Auckland Reactor )have none but has been placed several times since August . Paige (One Over The Moon) has $2500+ in NZ bred bonuses and $2000 in fillies and mare bonuses. Something is not right with Baltimore Jill's info or eligibility?
  3. I hear the decision is made to scrap the time qualifying standard
  4. Yep, fields, results and trackside were all problematic late in the day.
  5. Six pack , bring them back !
  6. Add The Locomotive , Matederos , sire Louey Louey Louey , and other progeny of La Coocaracha.

    That's whats going to happen when they scrap the qualifying time for qualifying a horse. A lot of slow horses might get a chance to race and then a lot more sit sprint races you will see.
  9. Word has it that the time standard for qualifying will be scrapped and it will be based upon the horses ability to stay gaited. This would mean the Tuesday low rated stakes meetings would go ahead. ( But gather will have the same ratings hike as other more staked meetings) . This will allow every horse bred an opportunity to collect stake money, which may indeed help increase breeding numbers and confidence. Wish them luck with this.
  10. Have you seen the article 11th March written by the NZSBA. It outlined a proposal for a $2000 subsidy for breeding a mare ( up to 3 mares ) worth $2000 each but the proposal was considered too late to implement and costs.. I don't have the ability to copy and paste it on here for a full read. Hopefully someone here has recieved it by email and can do so. It also outlined the NZ bred bonus which it was not a great supporter of, but I think it is a good scheme. The fillies and mares bonus scheme needs a tweak in my view. The 2yo bonus is good. Seeing the article has made me determine that they are going to excelerate the small breeders demise. We are down to about 50 or 60 stallions , genetically breeding into an ever decreasing circle compared to the 89's and 90's when there was over 100.
  11. Breaking in cost have risen also, wouldn't get much change out of $3k . In the event of more breeding there has to be money for this as well. We don't get stats from HQ on wastage Maybe a subsidy to the next horse they breed goes to the breeder generated from a previous horse that has qualified, Remember seeing a report years ago showing and indicating that the majority of horses qualify at the age of 4. Is this still the case or are these horse not persevered with anymore ?
  12. Wonder how much of the BIS money was not used. As someone that was eligible this season but because HRNZ changed the conditions that's one more mare not served. How many others ? I had plans for going to Bling It On or For A Reason for that mare. Have started the weaning process with my Piping Hot General x Hera Thunder (Spirit Of Zeus) filly. Photo Below.
  13. Like the idea of the Six Pack.
