gubellini 3,923 Report post Posted September 20, 2016 biff interesting that Super Easy has 9 colts and 1 gelding and no fillies in the Ready To Run Sale. Most Singapore bound I would suggest! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice win too. Wanted to do things a bit wrong coming around the bend but went to the line nicely in the straight with plenty in the tank.

Phar Lap Fan 103 Report post Posted September 23, 2016 From a very good broodmare, Parfore, plus Mosse and Il Quello Veloce further back, his female line looks strong and he was very consistent. With a cross of Sir Tristram, could his progeny go further than 1,600 metres? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think majority will end up over there for sure, Darci Brahma geldings do well in Singapore and Super Easy was a favourite there, can't imagine they will make massive money either so lots will become Singapore residents.

biff 2,158 Report post Posted September 24, 2016 Thats the major headache for a stud master Bruce, trying to build a cv for a new stallion only to see most of the stunning colts go to Asia, nothing destroys a pedigree page quicker than an active Asian based buyer. There are exceptions though, some do leave them to race here or Oz, but if they land up there, kiss the pedigree page goodbye.

Absolutely, especially for stallions in the same price bracket as Super Easy, a K2/K3 type stallion. Also the geldings/colts that stay in NZ that end up showing promise and win trials/races are usually then shipped off to Aussie or Asia. These stallions very reliant on their fillies to perform domestically Insider 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true.....part of the downfall of NZ Breeding and Racing at the moment. I know people are getting paid, but for what? Sorry if I have offended few, but I really believe it's the driving force of our problems. 1] There is nothing left of quality in NZ hence the down grading of our great races, The Easter, The Wellington Cup and the soon to be Auckland Cup. 2] The lack of depth in our Australian participation. Yes we are performing at the very top level, but wouldn't it be wonderful to have an equal amount performing just under them? biff 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

.... 226 Report post Posted September 25, 2016 For any fillies/mares that are currently Pearl Series nominated they become in-eligible once they turn 5, so are no longer eligible although NZ RACING still shows that they are pearl series nominated (but in fact they are expired) Maybe this needs to be looked at, there is definitely some areas that need to be looked at, maybe more R75 type races also possibly? A great concept but some improvements could be made. Insider 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting biff. Probably the smartest man in NZ Racing said to me a few years ago "No one gets into racing expecting to make money, but they all get our because it costs too much..."

biff 2,158 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 Agree, to a point, no one should expect to make money from prizemoney, but breeding is a different angle, entirely. Ownership should not be just a social exercise though and like a broken record, incentivise anyone and you will see increased performance fitzy, ask any business owner.

It's sad but Des has certainly reached his use by date. Totally out of touch with reality. His goal for the last 5 or 6 years was to get the Wellington Cup back to 3200m. Guess what happened? An immediate downgrade. It may have happen if it had stayed at 2400m but there was much more in its favour of not being sent to oblivion in the world of Group Races. Furthermore anyone who isn't paying training fees isn't worth listening to anyway, as they have no idea of the reality of the real situation, and Des fits that category perfectly. End of the story! biff 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
