Vert de Grece for sale in online auction

West Australian Racing
With 8 hours to go the bid is at $4750. He was standing for $5500 a serve. I guess if you take out She's Greysful, there's not much to show for a couple of crops.

    how many foals has be put on the ground? Are they easy to train or hot heads? The verglas line historically goes well in WA, but with limited numbers its an impossible game

    They are difficult to train handle , Skinny bad eaters and not very strong

    Oldest progeny are now 4yo. He had 22 named foals in his first crop. He had 30 named in his 2nd crop. 
     Out of 52 named, 6 have won races. Only 2 have won as a 2yo, She's Greysful and Playthatfunkymusic (who won a Kal mdn as a July 2yo).
     The only horse to win more than one race is Green And Shady (mdn at Kal and a C3 at Belmont).
     I think to make it in W.A you need to sire precocious horses to take advantage of Westspeed.
