nomates Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 The top racemare Avantage has been retired , apparently a tendon injury has curtailed her career . Very disappointing at a time when we drastically short of top class race horses in NZ . Hopefully throws something as good as herself as a broodmare .

I would think a private sale so she can be covered this season , long wait for the Gold Coast broodmare sale , Might depend on the extent of the injury .

Huey Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Good mare & I wonder where she sits in the list of good horses n NZ over the past few decades, probably dominated when our G1 racing was (well still is & getting worse) at its worse and barring from memory a Group win in OZ? Certainly By Fastnet Rock out of Zabeel mare there would be plenty of interest as you say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomates Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 The biggest thing in her favor is she won G1's at 1200mtrs , 1400mtrs , 1600mtrs and 2000mtrs . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nomates Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share Posted September 17, 2021 Bad luck for TA yesterday but will be looking for a big day today to make up for the disappointment of losing Avantage . Got horses running in 3 stakes races in NZ today and 1 in Sydney and 1 in Melbourne . At Hastings they have I wish i win in the El Roca trophy as a 1.80 fav , Imperatriz in the Gold Trail as a 1.80 fav . At Riccarton they have Synchronize in the fillies race at 3.20 , Need I Say More at 2.10 fav in the open sprint . In Melbourn they have Probabeel as 4.20 fav for the G1 , they also have Khama Lass running in the last , drawn wide but won a trial last week and at 17s is anice each way bet . In Sydney they have Ameralinha running in race 5 , has shortened into 5.50 currently , was at about 10s at one stage , should win this i reckon on what she showed last year , putting her form against the Aegon form . TA also have Vamos Bebe running at Hastings as a 2.10 fav , won the disqualified in a stakes race at her last start , great form for this and doesn't mind a bit of rain . A couple of other ex Kiwi's running in Sydney that might be worth a bet ,Charm Star in race 2 and Tony Be in R4 , both at double odds and both should be improved from first up runs . Tony Be in particular hit the line great at his first start and with a rain affected track is a nice bet . Good luck today . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nomates Posted September 18, 2021 Author Share Posted September 18, 2021 Atishu in the same race as Amerelinha and is the 3.30 fav , getting 4 kilos off Amerelinha , on exposed form i think Ameralinha is a superior horse , fitness is on the side of Atishu but i will stick with Amerelinha , she needs to be winning to make the Golden rose and The Epsom .

Don't know why she left the rail on Imperatriz , no patience , the rail is firming up at HB . Unfortunate about the rain for Amerelinha , plus Mcavoy was rubbish , hauled on her mouth the whole way , a forgive run . Perhaps i should have pointed out the Go Racing horses . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
