Are You Making Use of Family Search?

Tara Madgwick - Monday December 11

If you’re somebody like me that spends their life looking at pedigrees in the context of racing, you’ll be enjoying Breednet’s new family search of upcoming sales yearlings which makes it so much easier to find horses from families that are on the move and we’ve found a good one over the weekend featuring three fillies all on the up.

Glamour Tycoon is a new stakes-winner i the Miss Helga family.

When progressive Written Tycoon filly Glamour Tycoon won the Listed O’Leary’s Fillies Stakes (1340m) at Wanganui at the start of the month she was the first of three fillies to add interest to a family that stems from imported Irish stakes-winner Miss Helga (IRE, who came to Australia for Coolmore back in 2004. She was married to Encosta de Lago in the early years of her stud career and produced Champion HK Stayer Liberator and stakes-placed Pink Siris among her five winners.

Pink Siris is the grand-dam of Glamour Tycoon and two of her other daughters, Miss Hufflepuff and Senta Helga are the dams of Nymphadora (2f Yes Yes Yes), who was a fast finishing third in the Inglis Nursery and Concello (3f Trapeze Artist), the Breednet One to Watch on Sunday, read about her here.

A look at the Breednet family search shows three from the family as follows:

G1 3YOs - Where the Real Action Is
2YO racing might garner a lot of attention, but the reality is G1 races run for this age group are shining a light on a comparatively small slice of that foal crop, whereas 3YO racing is where the real action lies as the good horses from the season before have to step up or slide out of contention.

The Australian G1 season has concluded and there were 26 Group I races won by older horses at a distance of 1600m or more and they were won by 17 different horses with Via Sistina (IRE) and Mr Brightside (NZ) the only horses to win G1 races as sprinters (less than 1600m) and also as mile/middle distance/staying horses.

The Australian G1 season has concluded and there were 23 Group I races won by older horses at a distance less than 1600m, but one race that fits the category but is yet to be given G1 status is the $10million Golden Eagle (1500m) and form out of it would suggest it was the best of them all.
