Breeder

An attorney who represented the victims of billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual assault said that in 2009, the only person that helped him was then citizen Donald Trump.

It is not unusual for a stallion to produce better fillies than colts. In NZ we have had Centaine and O'Reilly (at least earlier in his career). Perhaps the most "famous" was Secretariat -- his prence in current pedigrees is almost always through a female.

Kodiac had 3 Grp winners at Royal Ascot. https://www.breednet.com.au/news/10588/kodiac-day-at-royal-ascot

I heard yesterday that Wyndspelle will be standing at Grangewilliam Stud this season.

Cambridge Stud's new future stallion Hello Youmzain races in the Grp 1 Diamond Jubilee in the UK on Saturday. https://www.breednet.com.au/news/10574/kiwi-interest-at-royal-ascot-in-group-one-sprint

The media release on Ten Sovereigns.. https://www.breednet.com.au/news/10508/Ten-Sovereigns-to-Stand-at-Valachi-downs

Ten Sovereigns (by No Nay Never) is to stand at Valachi @ $20,000. Another Coolmore stallion. Also Vespa is relocating to Valachi. A rapid change of direction for the stud, given only a few years ago, when they started with Savile Row they said at the time that originally there was never any intention to stand a stallion. But good on them, once that decision was made they have backed it up with working to get very well credentialed stallions, to be made available to the NZ industry.

chevy86 I think the "august body" is the Jockey Club in the USA and their equivalent in the UK which have both maintained rule for decades if not centuries. In case you weren't aware, here is a brief article on the Court case an Aussie took against the rules in Australia. He lost. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-12-19/court-upholds-racehorse-insemination-ban/4436834

The mare was passed in. The reserve is A$1,140,000. (about 600k pounds)

This mare which won a Grp 3 overnight in France is for sale in the Magic Millions Online sale next week. The trainer has a couple of Group 1 races in mind, so the aim is obviously to attract a SH buyer who will want the mare to race on in France and then potentially bring it down to the SH for breeding at some stage. https://www.breednet.com.au/news/10364/spinning-memories-wins-g3-prix-du-palais-royal

No gubellini and Stables. The party Ashton is with is a new, different party. Nothing to do with Colin Craig's lot.

I think they have been a registered party for quite a while ( a couple of years) , Stables

It looks like things are being sorted out because NZB Airfreight are saying they hope to be back freighting horses across the Tasman in a week or so. Great news for all concerned. On thing they note, that seemed to help, was the very good tracing available from the Cambridge Stud systems. https://www.nzb.co.nz/news.cfm?content_id=184019

Thanks gubellini. I'm not a follower of the New Conservatives. It was just more the Scoop article, I picked up.
