  •  Points of contention are always interesting to argue.Absolutely Denmans race record is superior.But he never raced against any horses rated superior to him ,notably Black Caviar, StarSpangledBanner, Manhattan Rain and Wanted  to name a few of that …

  • All due respect Damian I was not talking about if Denman was for sale or whether you would buy him. Making any stallion commercial is hard work. Certainly Denman won multiple Group races . I would argue that Demerit beat more superior opposition…

  • Hopefully the WA market will acknowledge Demerit. Denmans spectacular start reinforces the  feats of the Australian bred sprinting Stalllions that are now having a massive impact on the breeding world. .Moreso the Australian industry needs the  Lonh…

  • I apologise if I have upset you by stating the facts.I admire HH success in the US .He warrants his $7500 service fee there.He like many US bred shuttle stallions fail to duplicate their siring success here .You promote him as  a successful 2yo sire…

  • I am not sure why his service fee is more in Australia than it is in the USA.The Australian fact remains he has not had a Stakewinner or a topclass horse here. His Australian bred Stakeswinner won in Macau.He has 153 rising 3 and 4 Year Olds in Aust…

  • For Eddie Rigg and the other syndicators sake i hope GF can duplicate or improve on the credentials of his stock in AUS. As for Henny Hughes his progeny have shown a clear liking for Northern Hemispere conditions.Yet in Australia in all conditions …

  • For Rangviews sake i hope you are right . Though i am not sure of your logic given the diversity of the tracks his stock have raced on in all of the Eastern States. Trevor Andrews has one in at Pinjarr a on Wednesday Dongjie Wu . Will be interest…

  • Unlikely any foals here as he stood 2011 season at Darley. It is interesting that he is struggling to get a good horse here (in Australia),and that Husson Lightning is doing a better job at throwing 3yos according to the Breednet second year sire s…

  • Wedge I am intrigued as to your assessment of Demerit. He like Alfred Nobel and Planet Five are 2nd season stallions. All of which have had enough numbers in the last 2 years to be given a commercially viable opportunity. These stallions progeny a…
    in big clean up Comment by annandale January 2013
  • Interesting comments Dusty The simple fact is the stallions you mentioned would struggle to get the required number of mares at their respective service fees to be financially viable if they stood in WA. It is ironic that you mention Wanted and Dupo…
