American stallions go okay over here except if they win the Kentucky Derby..

We've had plodders like Thunder Gulch, Real Quiet, Fu Peg, Smarty Jones & Big Brown all pollute our gene pool with their Homer Simpson like jizz..

Street Sense was going well until Darley stopped shuttling him..

I see Coolmore aren't shuttling American Pharoah..:shock:

:shock:Vancouver and Pride of Dubai



Bruh did you see No Nay Never at 11k,very very interesting,those American stallions do well down here,he was a gun speedster,he could very well be a sneaky stallion to keep an eye on

True dat homeboy.. The last Joburg to come and stand here though was Henny Hughes and he got dropped faster than a knick through to Matthew Wade.

It's big dough, but considering Pierro was 77 grand & ATH 66 grand, it's just about par for the course ATM..

True but Pierro did win the triple slam of 2yo Sydney grp1s only absolute champions colts have done that and all have turned into champion stallions, plus his biggest asset is he is free of Danzig/Danehill so has that appeal to the vast proportion of the broodmare band.

ATH was a multiple stakes winning 2yo, then went on with it to win multiple Grp 1s at three including at WFA. Mainly though he is a half bro to Black Caviar which reads pretty good on a resume.

Vancouver was a champion 2yo but has literally done nothing since. Big risk taking him to Aiden O'Brien imo, obviously if he can win a good race over there then he can become a shuttler but if he flops (and plenty have) that will be the last thing Aussie breeders will remember and then you a staring down at 66k fee :shock:

I know I have a biased man crush on So You Think but look at what he has done in his career and he has already got better 2yo results then the three amigos Sepoy/Smart Missile/Helmet and you can get him for under 50

Lmao true

I like No Nay Never just based of what he showed on turf in Europe and America,he could disgrace himself like old mate Henny but wouldn't be surprised if he does well here.

:cool:No winners for So You Think out here yet from not many runners but there doing exactly what we would hope for,finishing powerfully late with a sign that says "wait until i turn 3 cutie" written all over it

Also a group 2 winner in NZ for him:cool:

Is this the worst group 1 field ever?

:lol: Those "Group 1's" in South Australia get honourable mentions..

Pardon my ignorance, but why is arteficial insemination not used in race horse breeding?

It's pretty complicated, but basically it's a fail safe in case one stallion becomes so successful that mare owners basically only want his blood..

It's to keep as much diversity as possible..

Basically so thoroughbreds don't end up with the breeding issues that the pacing/trotting industry have..
