To add to my point above the Appollo Stakes was just run at Randwick on a Good 4 track with winner, Fangirl, taking it in 1.22.18. Many of the runners are starting their prep but they would not go into a race like underdone..
Yes. Still improving and again untested, but still a bit to go to reach the levels of Savaglee and Captured by Love in their last NZ runs, for example.
BS you poke holes in anyone who has a little success.....she is the equal of most if not all the fillies running around at present...she has just kept on improving...who knows where her ceiling is...
The sale is now over, there were 125 yearlings offered with 36 being passed, you can see their reserve prices on the NZB Standardbred web site.
In the last lots, after 107, there were another 5 six figure yearlings including, a CaptainT filly at $175k, Sweet Lou colt at $150k, and two $130k horses, a Tall Dark Stranger filly, and a CaptainT filly.
Ozzie K must surely be circling! Always after another horse. Good thing is he often keeps the original owners in. As good if not better than Leica Lucy. Time to start ringing some potholders if they haven’t already
Can you not read ENGLISH I said fillies you sanctimonious....... and yes she is better than at least two of those...and yes in my opinion she is right up there with the best...I bet even a sad sack like yourself would love to own her...but no you have to try to poke holes in a top class filly.
It is certainly a real shame for the South Island. Compare her time with Legarto : 1.21.7 vs 1.23.3 both on Good4 tracks --it gives a good indication how good she is.
I'm sure the Aussies will be taking notice so I hope Colin Wightman can hold his nerve or at least get a very good deal for himself out of it.
Geez if Pivotal Ten is not the best filly in the country she must very close...would be great if she is well and they decide to come up for the Kiwi...she would be in it up to her ears.
Guess depends on the deal they have. I guess CJC having it based on Guineas might be a fail this year but would give people more desire to run in it next year
Yes it depends on the deals they do I guess. Last place stake is $100k so hopefully most of the clubs can mitigate some losses if they aren’t top 4/5 etc. be more I think in future years when it gets to $4.5m but winning stake will still be $1.2
After 107 lots there have been 13 sold for $100k or more, second top at the moment is a colt by FaceTime Bourbon @ $240k bought by B Purdon Racing, there have been 3 $150k sales for yearlings by, Captain T, Downbytheseaside and Tactical Landing.
