Sale Graduate Race Results for February

Fri, 02 Mar 2012 03:54:00 GMT

In a topsy turvy month’s results where graduates blitz two race meetings and failed to register a win in others, of the 56 races run in February, Tasmanian Magic Millions Sale graduates recorded 14 wins (25%), and another 28 were placed.

The list of winners reads like a who’s who of graduate stars, the highlight of the months however must be the February 15 Magic Millions and Vamos Stakes race meeting in Launceston, an incomparable showcase of graduate talent. The February 22 meeting was notable for sire Tough Speeds' progeny dominance, with his sale graduates winning three on the night.

2009 Sale graduate Royal Miswaki (Tough Speed(USA) x Royal Ruby) scored two wins in February, and Lady Lynette (Ladoni (GB) x Queen's Own) again proved her class.

An exciting Summer Race series comes to a close! Roll on Autumn racing….

SOLID 2012 YEARLING SALE RESULT PROVIDES BOOST TO TASMANIAN INDUSTRY

Sat, 25 Feb 2012 23:34:00 GMT

Tasbreeders today announced that the Magic Millions 2012 Tasmanian Yearling Sale set a record clearance rate with 79.3% of lots sold at Tuesday’s auction up substantially from last year’s rate of 63.9%

“Overall 88 lots sold for $1,024,500 at an average of $11,642 (down 7.3% from last year's $12,558) & a median of $7,000 (down 30% from last year's $10,000),” said Tasbreeders President, Robert Eastoe.

One interesting statistic, and one that will no doubt have far reaching implications for the entire thoroughbred industry, was the ratio of Tasmanian buyers to those from interstate with 73.5% of lots purchased by local buyers,(up from 51% last year), 24% by Victorians, and 2.5%, thanks to Star Thoroughbred’s Denise Martin, to a New South Wales-based purchaser.

The top lot the Alva Stud prepared Geoff Hillier bred Musket x Di’s Angel was also bought by a Tasmanian.

“I think there are many positives to take out of this sale. It is important to note that despite the smaller catalogue the sale still attracted a strong local and interstate buyer bench who bid competitively throughout the day. This is testament to the quality of our locally bread horses, the outstanding preparation by vendors, and a reinvigorated marketing approach,” Robert Eastoe said.

The Sale attendance and results, and the results by graduates in last night’s exciting Tasmanian Turf Club race meeting are a great curtain raiser for next week’s 2012 AAMI Launceston Cup, no doubt another showcase for our locally bred talent.

Tassie Yearling Returns to Win Derby

Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:49:00 GMT

Talented Victorian staying prospect Methuselah will head home for the VRC St Leger after scoring a dominant win in today's listed $100,000 Tasmanian Derby (2200m) at Elwick.

Prepared at Mornington by John McArdle, Methuselah downed local gallopers Barysh Quest and Colonial Gold - both from the Gary White stable.

The win completed a two year long range plan for connections after they purchased the son of Savoire Vivre for $30,000 at the 2010 Magic Millions Tasmanian Yearling Sale.

Closely related to a former Tassie Derby winner, Methuselah was sent south for his place in history following a strong win at Ararat over 2000 metres on January 16.

Three starts earlier he looked a horse to follow when successful in a 1400 metre maiden at Cranbourne. A great advertisement for the Tasmanian Yearling Sale, Methuselah led home a perfect one-two result with two sale graduates in the feature staying event.

Methuselah is one of two winners, from two to race, for the winning mare Dazzling Vintage.

A daughter of Weasel Clause, Dazzling Vintage is a full sister to the Tasmanian Derby winner Father Floyd.

Methuselah is therefore a three quarter brother to the stakes performed, five time winner Love the Moment - another classy galloper by Savoire Vivre.

McArdle completed a magical Tasmanian Sale double when Snippetson three-year-old Kid Kobe won the $30,000 Carbine Club Plate.

A $26,000 buy at the 2010 sale, Kid Kobe is stakes placed and now a multiple winner with earnings over $68,000.

It was also a double for Jarrod Todd.

Six yearlings by Methuselah's sire Savoire Vivre are catalogued for this month's Tasmanian Yearling Sale at the Inveresk Showgrounds in Launceston.

One of those catalogued, a chestnut colt from the stakes winner Gehenna like the Derby winner hails from Armidale Stud.

That youngster, catalogued as lot 64, is a half brother to Vickers - the Flemington winning day of today's impressive Victorian winner Tanqueray Lady.

The 2012 Magic Millions Tasmanian Yearling Sale will be held on February 21. To view the online catalogue click here.

Barysh Quest takes out the coveted Betfair.com Hobart Guineas

Mon, 23 Jan 2012 03:01:00 GMT

The Lobster & Legends Syndicate arguably got the thrill of their horse owner careers when their 3yo gelding Barysh Quest (West Quest(CAN) x Miss Barysh) crossed the line first in yesterday's Betfair Hobart Guineas in Hobart.

Coming off a close second run earlier in January in the Betfair.com Tasmanian Guineas, the 2010 Magic Millions Yearling Sale graduate romped home in one of this month's feature races.

Congratulations to all owners and connections. This win will no doubt increase interest in West Quests 17 sired lots being offered at the Magic Millions Tasmania Yearling Sale on February 21 in Launceston.

1st Aust Winner For Freshman Shuttler Any Given Saturday

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:56:00 GMT

US Gr1-winning 8YO shuttle stallion Any Given Saturday (Distorted Humor-Weekend In Indy, by A.P.Indy) recorded his 1st Australian winner when 2YO gelding Saturday Skies (Any Given Saturday-Panoramic Skies, by Perugino) led all-the-way to score over 1000m at Ascot in Perth yesterday at his 2nd start for trainer Ted Martinovich.

Saturday Skies was a $30,000 yearling consigned by Kambula Stud at the 2011 Magic Millions Adelaide Sale. On the track, his sire Any Given Saturday (who is standing for US$15,000 in 2012 at Darley Kentucky) recorded 6 wins (4 stakes, including 2007's Gr1 Haskell Invitational Handicap over 9 furlongs at Monmouth Park, Gr2 Brooklyn Handicap over 9 furlongs at Belmont Park, Gr2 Dwyer Stakes over 8.5 furlongs at Belmont Park & Listed Sam Davis Stakes over 8.5 furlongs at Tampa Bay Downs) & 3 placings (including 2007's Gr1 Wood Memorial Stakes over 9 furlongs at Aqueduct & Gr3 Tampa Bay Derby over 8.5 furlongs at Tampa Bay Downs, plus 2006's Gr2 Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes over 8.5 furlongs at Churchill Downs) from 11 starts for US$1,083,533 earnings. Any Given Saturday (who has sired 11 winners in the Northern Hemisphere) covered 86 mares at Darley Victoria last spring at a $13,750 fee.

We are offering two fillies in the Magic Millions Yearling Sale on February 21.
