chevy86 2,704 Report post Posted March 3, 2016 Nearly 2/3rds of the way through the season and not many have been dominant in the 3 year-old ranks after a stellar 2 year-old season. A few "over-cooked" as juveniles? or just the fickle nature of racing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not having a chip at stallion or connections but concerned that their flag seems to be further down the pole this year. ( Dal Cielo will probably jump up and win a big one this weekend!)

I saw him last week for the first time - Jakkalberry. If he's not the best looking stallion in NZ, I don't know who is. Mind you, Per Incanto is a great looker too. P.S. I have no allegiance to the two aforementioned horses and I have not breed to them either. That could change though this year! elbow 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara is the best looking stallion. Now you know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazach 133 Report post Posted April 30, 2016 25 winners from 73 runners isn't a great record for Per Incanto. As usual, the hype and bullshit that emanates from a stud farm when 1 or 2 of the 100+ mares served produces a good horse - meant that Per Incanto was able to serve about 150 mares last season. elbow 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit harsh given his oldest are just 3yos,11 wins in the last month isn't a bad effort for any stallion. There is no denying they get up and run.

bazach 133 Report post Posted May 1, 2016 True Huey. My comment is more generic - aimed at all studs. I wish the connections of Per Incanto all the best. Huey 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
