Siegestor Wins a 1600 at Moonee Valley

Well it’s not often things go to plan, but yesterday was a good case in point where it went to script 100%. Jye rode him 10/10, he settled well, moved into the race at the right time and kicked home hard in the straight.

Congratulation’s to the whole group as it was a great day at the Valley Yesterday I was told and well done to Leon and his staff on presenting our boy at the races in such good condition. Please find some photos below and I will be in touch in coming days on where his next target will be.

HORSE OF THE MONTH

SEPOY x CAIGUNA Bay Colt

Spicer Thoroughbreds are proud to introduce this stunning looking 2 year old  colt by the boom sire Sepoy. Sepoy was an amazing 2 year old winning the Countries 2 biggest races in the group 1 Blue Diamond stakes and also the pinnacle of the juvenile races in the Golden Slipper. Sepoy was the most dominant 2 year old we’ve seen in Australia over the last 20 years and that was reflected  in the sale ring with his progeny fetching in excess of 2 Million dollars. This Colt is out of a mare in Caiguna, who is a stakes winner and ran 2nd in the West Australian Guineas at group 2 level which is no mean feat against the colts.

Our Colt was a recent purchase at the Ready To Run sale where he galloped really well running a low 11 sec sectional and having some inside information on him knowing he was going a little shin sore into his breeze up mean’s the colt is open to leads of improvement.

The Colt is currently spelling and will start work with Champion  David Hayes in around 4 weeks’ time.  This colt  is a horse that could potentially hit the race  track by next Feb if all went to plan next time in.

A 10% Share in the Colt are 14 k Plus Gst with 5% shares available on request with full owner privileges, Insurance is included until Nov 2016 and all training Fee’s/agistment costs are included until Nov 30th 2015.   Spicer Thoroughbreds charges no ongoing management fees, and provides owners an unprecedented level of communication and audio-video coverage to keep you informed of your horse’s progress.

Sepoy-Colt

Vezalay wins a 1100m at Caulfield

Congratulations on Vezalay’s big stakes win yesterday which was thoroughly deserved after being so brave at her last 3 starts when beaten less than a length in all 3.

James McDonald was superb with his faultless ride and credit goes to Leon on how he summed up the mare by changing plans and training with her.

It was a great day had by all and a huge thrill to win a race on Caulfield Cup day!

Mr Individual Wins At Caulfield

Congratulations to the entire winning group as it was pretty special win for the whole team.

A big thank you too Mark Zahra who sat on the horse, steered him around and more importantly saw him settle beautifully in the lead which was great to see.

Leon was very chuffed as it very self-gratifying to get a son of a gun to the races and mould him into a potential top class horse ,that’s what racing is all about, the love of the horse!

Hand From Above Wins Maiden

Well congratulations and we couldn’t have started Hand From Above’s career off any better with a very brave win 1st up. Young Travis rode a very smart race by leading at a very steady tempo which allowed us a nice kick when it mattered. Peter and Paul both passed on their well wishes to the team.

What A Hoot Wins in Bendigo

Well finally we can say Congratulations this time in as it’s been a long time coming!! It’s really been one of those frustrating preps where a few things didn’t go our way, but we have learnt so much this time in.

Some positives we can take out of this prep is we worked out he hates wet tracks, doesn’t like the synthetic as much as grass, is more of a 1000-1300 maybe 1400 meter horse and is only going to get better as he gets older. Knowing all this now will hold us in good stead for his future racing!

Patty Moloney gave him a great ride and showed why he is one of the most promising kids coming through our riding ranks ! he boxed seated him before he showed those wonderful left handed whip skills that got us over the line !!
