Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted 4 hours ago Journalists Share Posted 4 hours ago Savabeel will join his sire Zabeel and grandsire Sir Tristram in the New Zealand Racing Hall of Fame. The Waikato Stud-based 23-year-old will be inducted at the 2025 Hall of Fame function in May. Savabeel completed his 20th season at stud late last year and has sired 988 winners to this day. Of those 148 are stakes winners, 99 of them are Group winners and his 35 Group 1 winners have won a total of 58 races at that level. “He's ticking over at around a dozen stakes winners per season, so with decent numbers still coming through there's a good chance he can break Zabeel's record for individual stakes winners,” Waikato Stud principal Mark Chittick told racingnews.co.nz. “However you measure his achievements, Savabeel has done a phenomenal job for us and everyone who has supported him – for the whole breeding industry in fact, it would be fair to say.” The post Savabeel Joins The New Zealand Racing Hall of Fame appeared first on TDN | Thoroughbred Daily News | Horse Racing News, Results and Video | Thoroughbred Breeding and Auctions.
