That's obviously an option but not a reason. So I gather you haven't done any cogent in-depth analysis. I would say the Magic Millions Race isn't a high priority as it doesn't tick all the boxes for making a stallion nor necessarily what's best for the horse. -
a few interesting points. There is a lot of overlap. I'm always concerned for the long term survival of the participants. they will be worse off if the trotting collapses. It's just a sport . A lot of people's involvement is just for fun. The South Island have much more people participating in that capacity at the moment. The persons 's writing on this thread all enjoy the sport , and participate via betting and even expressing ideas on forums, etc and doing stuff like Unhinged ,etc. Brodie (and others) often points out the betting product is Poor in the North due to numbers and quality. ( say compared to odds at Motukarara the other day and Cup week with some good winners ) that may be so , but condemn it because of that seems harsh. I attended Albion Park yesterday (along with 6-10 other patrons 😆) in a city of millions , and observed some mild action , no one bets on it. It's just people enjoying their sport. a bit like Manawatu say. The ATC has problems that everyone knows. The fields are good this week though on Friday , but you guys writing don't support them greatly, because you like the South Island numbers/betting / Clubs better. A bit like some folk support a footy club over others. Fair enough. But like the footy (where in the AFL Victoria has over half the teams , and they always cry 'foul' because the 7 interstate teams gets lots of concessions to remain established and get a base of players in their states. ) But NZ is STILL a One STATE Nation. and this Constant Splitting of North Island v South Island Harness is just Rubbish to be honest , and of course HRNZ has to support both Islands to the best of their Capabilities. If the Southerners are crying Foul , because racing for less money , maybe they should Move there ??? 👍😅 Bit warmer, nicer for training horses, keeps the industry going. that would help. Dean Shannon popped 17 horses with Barry/Scott and is helping. Telfers and Dunns are doing this with Northern Satellite stables already as are very clever ,and fine operators, and helping out , while getting a few dollars there (with Jolly Roger and co.) good on em' !!! that's the way !!. get in and race there and keep it going instead of all the shunning.

Aesop's Fables (Ire) (No Nay Never) will stand at Starfield Stud next season, Compass Stallions announced on Monday. The G2 Futurity Stakes winner will command a fee of €6,500, with limited breeding rights available. Trained by Aidan O'Brien, Aesop's Fables retires as the winner of three of his 17 career starts. He also won this year's Listed Sole Power Sprint Stakes at Naas in May, having produced two of his best efforts at the end of last season when finishing third in both the G1 Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp and GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint at Santa Anita. Micheál Orlandi of Compas Stallions said, “Aesop's Fables promises to be an exciting addition to the stallion roster at Starfield Stud, being such a highly regarded sprinter by a Champion two-year-old sire in No Nay Never. He has been syndicated by a distinguished group of trainers, consignors, breeders and bloodstock consultants, giving him every chance of success at stud. We look forward to showing him to breeders and are confident they won't be disappointed in what they see.” Bred by Barronstown Stud, Aesop's Fables is one of six winners from as many runners out of the Listed-placed How's She Cuttin' (Ire) (Shinko Forest {Ire}), with the others including the Bearstone Stud resident Washington DC (Ire), another high-class sprinter for O'Brien whose victories included the G3 Phoenix Sprint Stakes. The trainer added, “Aesop's Fables is typical of his sire, a big, strong, powerful horse with a good mind. We always thought that he would get very good-looking foals and very mature two-year-olds. He is fast and has some top-class form, a Group 2 winner as a juvenile and placed in the Group 1 Prix de l'Abbaye and Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint as a three-year-old, beaten just a short distance in both. He has loads of scope and could get very classy horses.” The post Aesop’s Fables Retired to Starfield Stud for 2025 appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
