Surely they will televise them. Either way they will be uploaded sooner or later. I see Elephant is being aimed for the All-Star Mile. He'll get my vote.

The Centaur Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Good to see you are learning chief. Didn't I send out a question last year to the effect which race had the highest number of group winners and you couldn't answer correctly. Same trials.

Damn good couple of trials coming up today. BTW since you are obviously on to it what is the total stakes won by them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could well be right , won't do it tho , just a press release saying he has an issue that requires his retirement and of to Cambridge Stud . A fast G1 son of Snitzel , just what NZ needs , i would be interested . off to check his pedigree . OTB i think that was definitely just a track gallop .

nomates Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Just checked out Sword of State' pedigree , a worry , a bit light on black type , him , his dam won the G2 Light Fingers , 4th dam left Angst who won the G1 Flight Stakes , that's it . For me i like to see a bit more depth on the page with a stallion prospect . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is priced right then he should be every show of doing well as a sire out of an EDL mare a great breed to race proposition if I was still silly enough to breed at a value price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah , doesn't matter what the service fee and associated costs are , feeding and raising them costs the same as the million dollar ones .

Interesting to see if he gets 1600m. I see he is nominated for the Derby but I can't see him getting that distance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst i think he was lucky to win last start , Paeareanui Bay wins with a clear run , that form is strong and i think against 3yo's he will see the mile alright . It is an average field this year so hard to see him beaten , his rating is a mile above anything else . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be a great race this one, also an unbeaten horse in the race and Habana whose run I was quite impressed with last start at Taupo. Just hope there is no problems with the best track in the country this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
