Lot-525,Lope-De-Vega-x-Linky-Dink_standing

Wow what an opportunity for all our clients to get involved with a cracking filly out of the mare Linky Dink, who won the Group 1 Q.T.C T.J Smith Classic in Qld, that’s right a filly out of a group 1 winning mare, it doesn’t get any better!

She is by the first season sire Lope De Vega a son of Shamardal who was a champion racehorse in France.
He was a dual group 1 winner and was an outstanding racehorse. His low galloping action was a great attribute and when he was asked to quicken it was like watching poetry in motion, so smooth! Check him out his group 1 deeds in this promo clip – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETPtvby0U2M

She will be trained by Leon Corstens who has a real knack with these classic fillies having worked so closely with Bart Cummings for a quarter of a decade with some of the best race fillies to ever grace the racetrack.

10% shares in the Filly at 14k plus Gst. Your share price includes – Breaking in, insurance, all agistment and training fees up until 31st of April, floating, minor vet bills, & sales vetting. (5% shares available on request).

If you wish to join the team racing this filly, don’t hesitate by calling Brad on 0400676773 or email brad@spicerthoroughbreds.com.au

Amovatio wins 2nd in a row!

Congratulations to all!!! What a super win, and for a stride or 2 I thought it was going to be another ‘Amo unlucky story’, but now he is more mature he is starting to burst through those inside gaps.

It was a masterstroke from trainer Chris Waller, as the temptation was there to step up in distance but he made the right call as the professional horseman he is. Chris was chuffed as the horse has improved this time, both physically and mentally, which is now showing on race day with the ultimate result. Hat must go off to young Serg as he didn’t panic when caught out on the inside and was very strong riding our boy home late.

Word of Mouth Wins at Flemington

CONGRATULATIONS …

It was great to see Word Of Mouth bounce back with a great win at Flemington and its was a very special day had by all.

Michael Rodd said he went back to settle him, got going early 3 wide and then let him rip in the straight, “I timed my run to perfection!!!” He said he is a nice progressive horse that will keep improving which is a great sign for his future.

Leon was chuffed as the race was named in honour of a mate of his and we have had 2 runners in this race together for 2 wins, so now we need to find that 3 year old for next year…

Supreme Warrior Wins

Congratulation’s …

Well that was a very good win 2nd up with 60kgs and a sign we are in for a very good prep with the Warrior. Michael Rodd gave him the gun ride from the outside gate and he can take a fair bit of credit as his record on him is impeccable, 8 rides for 5 wins, his last 3 wins all Metro wins.

Leon passed on his congratulations as he is such a real bulldog and fights tooth and nail all the way down the straight.

HORSE OF THE MONTH:  MORE THAN READY (NZ) x MISS O’BRIEN COLT

click here view more info and pedigree

Our colt has just finished his first prep with Snowden Racing in Sydney at their Randwick stables, and they are very buoyant about him.

Paul Snowden is super keen to put him on the Magic Million’s path after he went through his education process this time around and passed with flying colours. I myself was reserved, as I do think he will make a lovely late 2-year / 3-year old type, but after speaking to Paul, he was in raptures on how quickly he picks things up and said he will make into a lovely 2 year old later this year. Paul went onto to say he is a jet out of the gates and has all the attributes you look for in a good juvenile a great attitude coupled with a good appetite.

10% shares at $17k plus Gst. Your share price includes – Breaking in, insurance, all agistment and training fees up until 31st of April, floating, minor vet bills, & sales vetting. (5% shares available on request).

Amovatio Wins at Rosehill

Well done guys, congratulations and how about the win by Amo!  Just goes to show what he can do with pace on.  Trainer Chris Waller was worried about the distance, but when they went too hard up front that played into our hands, which is very easy to watch, as he had the race won with 300 to go!

I am so happy as this horse deserved a win like today after suffering from minimal luck during his career and his record should read so much better, but now that he has won again I am sure he can go on with it, especially as he gets out in distance.

I never get sick of writing these email and after taking 9 starts to break through ,we are now shooting for 3 straight !! Congratulations and great to see everyone with big beaming smiles !!

All Credit goes to Leon and Ollie who have combined well to get our gorgeous grey to be a winner !! Ollie said today’s win was soft and he can’t wait to see what she can do over a mile with cut in the track ,very happy with her progress !

Leon is relieved more than anything as we are finally seeing her do what we knew she can do and hopefully we have better races in store moving forward .

She is down to run again on the Saturday the 31st of May at Sandown on the same track over 1600 ,now we need a little rain to see her at her best !!
