ABOUT THE SIRE

SAVABEEL
NEW ZEALAND’S STAKES PRODUCING PHENOMENON
9 G1 winners and 42 individual Stakes Winners from 7 crops to race proudly demonstrate SAVABEEL’s ability as a stakes producing phenomenon. In fact, in the history of New Zealand’s greatest ever sires, only his own mighty sire ZABEEL and grandsire SIR TRISTRAM had sired more stakes winners at the equivalent stage of their careers.
AUSTRALASIAN BENCHMARK
On the basis of Australasia’s leading stakes producers of 2014-15, Savabeel currently features as the Number One sire thanks to his outstanding 9.5% lifetime Stakes Winners-to-Runners ratio.
DURABLE CLASSIC-CUPS HORSES
New Zealand’s number one source for Classic-Cups horses of the future. To date has sired 3 Australian Classic winners in the shape of G1 Victoria Derby victor SANGSTER, G1 Queensland Oaks winner SCARLETT LADY and G1 Queensland Derby winner BRAMBLES. Demonstrating his progeny’s elite level durability, SANGSTER returned last season for G1 glory in the Auckland Cup and Waikato International Stakes. Other Cups horses include G2 Brisbane Cup winner TULLAMORE and Listed winners LOPOV & IGGI POP.
WIDESPREAD EXCELLENCE
From his handful of crops to race, his 42 individual Stakes Winners have excelled at an array of ages and distances. Whilst best known for his 4 G1 Classic winners, SAVABEEL has been strongly represented by 10 Cups horses, 13 Black-type Milers, 8 Middle Distance stars and 6 Stakes Winning 2YO’s.

SAVABEEL – His Story
SAVABEEL in Brief :
Winning the 2004 W.S.Cox Plate
Cox Plate victor and Australia’s highest rated 3yo.
Sire = Zabeel / Dam = Savannah Success
The immaculately bred Savabeel became just the second 3yo in the previous 20 years to win the W.S. Cox Plate.
Subsequently, Savabeel was the highest IFHA
rated 3yo in Australia in 2004/05, rating in front of horses such as
Fastnet Rock, Charge Forward and Alinghi. He was also credited with the
Group 1 AJC Spring Champion Stakes (2000m), retiring with earnings of
$2,760,460.
His dam Savannah Success achieved Group 1
glory in both the NZ Oaks and the Ansett Australia Stakes (now Coolmore
Classic).
She was crowned New Zealand Bloodstock Filly of the Year.

Winning the AJC Spring Champion Stakes Gr 1
The Walk of Champions
Spoils of Victory
The spring of 2004 saw the outstanding colt
Savabeel (Zabeel ex Savannah Success, by Success Express) dominate the
race track with first - a win over his own age group in the Spring
Champion Stakes (Group I) at Randwick and then - a stunning victory in
the weight-for-age W. S. Cox Plate (Group I) at Moonee Valley, over the
older horses.
Savabeel won Australasia’s greatest race, the
classic weight-for-age race of the Australasian spring by 1L proving his
class over a field of proven Group I performers.
Defeating a field consisting of 10 individual
Group 1 winners, it was a dominating effort by the young colt who went
onto run a gallant second in the VRC Victoria Derby Group 1 at
Flemington a week later.
The only three-year-olds in the last 20 years
to succeed in winning the testing 2040m of the WFA Championship event
have been Zabeel’s champion of 1996 Octagonal, and now in 2004 Savabeel.

The History of SAVABEEL
From the very beginning the team around
SAVABEEL had a driving belief that the stunning dark brown (almost
black) colt catalogued as Lot 130 at the Magic Millions Sales of 2003,
had an aura about him that could deliver greatness.
%20of%20Zabeel%20-%20Savannah%20Success2.jpg)
SAVABEEL - As a Yearling at the Magic Millions Sales in 2003
Whether it was his stunning looks, his ideal
conformation, they way he walked or even the way he stood and looked at
you - there was something special in the colt.
Having been expertly raised on the superb
pastures of Baramul Stud and being presented at the sale yards in
immaculate condition, this was the colt they we had to take home.
The colts dam Savannah Success was a most
gifted filly and we were adamant she could produce a superstar. Savannah
Success’s race form backed up our opinion. Savannah Success was a race
filly that won 8 races (6 in a row) from 1100m to 2400m. Included in her
triumphs were two Group 1 victories at 1500m and 2400m, two Group 2
victories, a Group 3 victory and two Listed Races to her credit.
After a hotly contested bidding war in the ring, the hammer came down on a bid at $400,000.
Within 48 hours Dean Watt had syndicated the
colt around the Rogerson stables in Sydney. Sold mostly to Dean’s loyal
client who backed Dean’s judgement in what we saw in the colt.
A private
syndicate of 5 was created to race the stunning colt which they named
SAVABEEL.
From the time the breakers completed their task, the buzz on the colt was terrific.
I believed that the colt was a precocious
individual on type with the genetics in the pedigree to back up his
awesome conformation.
Also we have belief in Sir Patrick Hogan of
Cambridge Stud’s theory on Zabeel progeny – That is “despite being at
their best as a 3yo and 4yo, Zabeel’s stock needed to work along as
2yo’s.”
SAVABEEL’S 2yo Career
So with this in mind the colt went into work
with the view of taking him to the first set of 2yo trials of the season
at Canterbury.
He lined up in heat 4 and ran a gallant second
over 850m in the fastest time of the morning. At the time, we commented
that “the horse that won the heat must have been special to beat
Savabeel” We didn’t know it then but that colt turned out to be Dance
Hero !
Savabeel was sent for a spell and then
commenced his racing career on Valentine’s Day 14 February 2004 at
Saturday meeting at Randwick over 1000m.
The colt got back to last in the field but stormed home to win by an authoritative 4.5 lengths eased up.
Savabeel finished his 2yo season running a gallant 3rd to Dance Hero and Wager in the Group 1 AJC Champagne Stakes over 1600m.
SAVABEEL’S 3yo Career
Spring 2004
Savabeel showed his true class and what an exciting prospect he was when he resumed running 4th in the Group 2 San Domenico Stakes at Randwick over 1000m. That race
turned out to be one of the highlights of the early spring when, in a
driving finish, Charge Forward just defeated Fastnet Rock and a close up
Dance Hero ran 3rd.
At his next start he was the most unlucky runner of the race, when he ran a very close up 5th in the STC $1m Golden Rose Stakes 1400m. Savabeel got back to second
last in the big field but started to surge home in the closing stages
but was badly held up for a run and had no luck trying to get a clear
passage.
At his third start, Savabeel stepped out in
the Group 2 Gloaming Stakes over 1800m. Again getting back to the tail
of the field he unleashed a powerful finish to run a gallant 2nd to Al Maher but easily accounted for Outback Prince and Cedar Manor.
His fourth start he was at his peak leading
into the Group 1 AJC Spring Champion Stakes 2000m. In this event he was
able to travel a lot closer to the speed and powered away in the
straight to score a decisive victory over Outback Prince, Cedar Manor
and turned the tables on Al Maher who ran 4th.
Then took the horse to Melbourne for the Cup Carnival.
However we had a dilemma on our hands – which
way did we go to get up to the Derby distance – race in either the Cox
Plate or the Norman Robinson.
The owners and trainer had an unyielding faith
that the colt was the best in the country at the distance and would be a
definite threat in the Cox Plate.

So, at his 5th start he lined up in
the $3m Group 1 MVRC W.S. Cox Plate WFA 2040m.
The rest is history.
Jumping well, he was taken forward to sit 3rd in the fast
tempo race. Approaching the home turn Savabeel kicked clear to win
comfortably and write his name in history’s record books. Savabeel
destroyed the best in the Southern Hemisphere including Fields of Omagh,
Starcraft and Grand Armee.

This was only the second 3yo colt in 20 years
to have won Australasia’s most prestigious race. Savabeel joined
Octagonal (also a colt by Zabeel) in equine immortality.
Such was his fame there was even a song written and performed about the 3yo star.
Finally, at his 6th start and
closing race for this preparation, the colt lined up seven days later in
the Group 1 VRC Derby over 2500m. He ran a fabulous race to run 2nd
but since he was backing up in 7 days from the tough Cox Plate run he
found the unrealistically quick tempo of the race just beyond his limits
of endurance.
Autumn 2005.
Big things were expected from this spring superstar. Racing had its latest hero.
Savabeel resumed at Caulfield in the Group 1
C.F.Orr Stakes 1400m. The race proved to be an exciting affair as
Savabeel once again got too far back and was then checked and was forced
very wide on the turn. Spotting the eventual winner Elvstroem a 3
lengths head start he ran flew home to only be beaten a head. He
defeated Lad Of The Manor and Regal Roller.
Having been invited to race in Hong Kong he
was inoculated the day after the race. That would become a defining
moment. Savabeel had a allergic reaction to the injection and became
very ill. He raced a few more times but the illness took its toll and
the choice was a 4 month spell or retirement.
The horse was sold to Waikato Stud in a deal
valuing the horse at $10 million. He covered his first book of mares in
2005 covering 120 mares at $35,000 NZD.
The boom has been on Savabeel’s progeny since
they hit the ground. His progeny are strong with excellent muscle
culture. He is imparting good bone into his stock and we have scene many
excellent individual by him to date. If they can run half as good as
they look we are in for some exciting racetrack victories.
This is Savabeel’s first crop of yearling
being sold in 2008. At the NZ Premier Yearling Sale where Dynamic
Syndications purchased 3 outstanding types by the sire, his progeny
averaged $141,185 (4 x service fee) selling up to $300,000.
Savabeel commenced stud duties in New Zealand
in 2005.
About SAVABEEL’S Sire

ZABEEL Trained by
Colin Hayes, Zabeel competed with distinction in Australia for Sheikh
Hamdan. He won once from three starts at two, then he showed his true
classic form at three.
He captured the VRC Australian Guineas (Group I,
1600m), then added further lustre to his record by defeating Dr Grace
(also by Sir Tristram) and Golden Slipper winner Courtza in the Moonee
Valley Stakes (Group II, 1600m). Zabeel then carried his class to 2000m
the distance at which he defeated VRC Derby hero Stylish Century in the
MVRC Alister Clark Stakes (Group II).
Further Group success came with his win in the Craiglee Stakes (Group
II) as a four-year-old, and Zabeel was retired with a record of 7
victories and 5 placings from 19 starts. His earnings, when he retired
during the 1990-91 season, stood at $A1,138,400.
Zabeel 17 times Champion Sire

Sire of 720 winners and 111 Stakes Winners
including 37 individual Group 1 winners making him the greatest stallion
to stand at stud in New Zealand since his own great sire, Sir
Tristram. The most recent of those is the 2007 Melbourne Cup winner,
Efficient (Refused the Dance (Defensive Play).
Zabeel assumed the mantle of New Zealand's flagship stallion from his own legendary sire,
Sir Tristram who died in May 1997. That was just after Zabeel won the
first of his eleven Dewar Stallion Trophy awards (in 1995-96), and just
before he claimed his first general sire premierships in Australia &
New Zealand (1997-98). In all, Zabeel has now won 17 Australasian sire
premierships.
The important role he's played in maintaining
New Zealand's profile in Australia during the past decade cannot be
over-stated. He's appeared in the top ten Australian sires (by progeny
earnings) every season since 1996, heading the list twice, and has only
once slipped out of the top five, in 2003. Zabeel has been alone among
active New Zealand-based sires in the latter group for all but two of
those eleven seasons.
Excluding his crop of just-turned
two-year-olds, Zabeel has now sired 111 stakeswinners (8.5%) from 1214
foals, a remarkable figure across 12 crops. That total includes 37 Group
One winners, among them Australian Horses of the Year MIGHT AND POWER
(1998 & 1999), and OCTAGONAL (1996). His New Zealand AEI figure for
last season was better than 2.0, meaning that on average Zabeel’s
progeny earned more than twice the average available funds per runner.
Zabeel’s status as a top ten sire in Australia is confirmed by the ABR's
recently introduced APEX ratings tables. He’s fourth on the list by “A”
rating with a figure of 4.45, and seventh on the “ABC” rating list,
with 2.66.
The final challenge for Zabeel, now twenty
years old, is to establish his own stallion dynasty. This is taking
longer than it might have, because most of his best racing sons from his
early crops were geldings. (And what a line-up they were: Might And
Power, Sky Heights, Zonda, Hades, Dignity Dancer, Bezeal Bay, Cronus and
company).
The exceptions were Eight Carat’s sons, the
brilliant but infertile Mouawad, and the champion Octagonal who, despite
leaving his own champion son in Lonhro, has not fulfilled his promise
with 17 stakeswinners (2%) from 857 foals to date. However, it’s too
soon to dismiss the possibility of a Zabeel sire-line, because he’s had
four Group One-winning sons begin stud careers in the past three years:
Don Eduardo, Savabeel and St Reims in New Zealand, and Reset in
Australia. His other New Zealand-based sire sons are Colombia, I Conquer
and Sunray.

“A thoroughly reliable source of classic
performance in Australasia” is Byron Rogers’ recent verdict on Zabeel.
At first reading it seems insufficient praise for a horse that has won
17 official stallion premierships, left two Australian Horses of the
Year, generated yearling sale receipts of $144 million since 1995 and
has nine yearlings in the million-dollar-plus club. The test is how many
other stallions qualify for that description. The answer, fifteen years
after Zabeel began stud duties at Cambridge Stud, is “hardly any.”

SIR TRISTRAM (Sire of Zabeel and Grandsire of Savabeel)
Sir Tristram kept the record-keepers busy from the
time his oldest runners were three-year-olds, stamping himself one of
the world's best stallions in the process. Today the dynasty he founded
adds new Group winners at every major racing carnival in Australasia,
his achievements still the standard by which each new sire is measured.
45 Group One winners; a total of 127 Group and Listed
Stakes winners; in all, more than 220 black type performers, almost one
quarter of all his runners. Today Sir Tristram's progeny earnings total
close to $A50 million.
That total makes Sir Tristram the world's second
leading sire of Group One winners: only in arrears of Sadler's Wells and
ahead of Mr Prospector, ahead of Nijinsky II, ahead of Danzig and ahead
of Northern Dancer.
He sired outstanding two-year olds Grosvenor, Isolda,
Kaapstad, Our Tristalight, Tristalove and the 1987 Golden Slipper winner
Marauding.
