When Overtheriver scored his 19th win in the Marlborough Cup on Sunday it got me thinking there are some rather handy Broodmares about in NZ that don't seem to get the Kudos they deserve, for whatever reason perhaps either they aren't fashionably bred or haven't been to fashionable stallions.
Have a look at the Dam of Overtheriver performance at stud:
QUALITY EYES ( By Danzero ex Close your Eyes By Geiger Counter)
KRASE (Ekraar) - 11 wins including an Australian Steeple
OVERTHERIVER (Mettre En Jeu) - 19 wins to date including several country cups
LA FILLE EN JEU (Mettre En Jeu) - 9 wins to date including a G3 & Listed race
PETITE EN JEU (Mettre En Jeu) - 5 wins to date
Currently in foal to Unusual Suspect
Any others anyone can think of?
