One of the many enjoyable aspects of being a
Bloodstock Consultant is
statistical research.
Most importantly, how it cuts through the fluff and bubble of marketing hype and allows a review based on
real data to make comparisons and develop theories.
Statistics deliver evidence of trends that in breeding of thoroughbred horses, give
significant advantage to professional buyers and breeders.
There are so many variables in our industry that nothing can be guaranteed.
However, as a professional buyer, we would much rather start with data stacked heavily in favour of achieving success, we never buy on a whim which is akin to winning lotto.
A classic example of this is on display with our
Dynamic Syndications purchased yearling by
SAVABEEL x BINGO (O’Reilly) Brown Filly.

Facts are Facts. SAVABEEL is the BEST SIRE in NEW ZEALAND and he nicks best with daughters of O’REILLY.

At the 2020 NZ Yearling Sale, Dynamic Syndications purchased a fabulous looking filly by SAVABEEL from the city winning mare BINGO (by O’Reilly).
Having such an
intimate knowledge of SAVABEEL since we raced him to win the
Cox Plate and Spring Champion Stakes then
on-selling him to Waikato Stud for a stallion career, we have followed his breeding statistics with intimate detail throughout his career.
To watch him
rise to the top of the stallion ranks in NZ and maintain this position for 6 successive years has been awesome. Watching him take over from his own great sire
ZABEEL who took over from his own sire
SIR TRISTRAM has been very rewarding.
Studying the facts and figures we learn a lot of vital information that we use to our advantage.
The most important information we have learned based on statistical facts is that overall,
SAVABEEL has his best results for producing Stakes Winners and Winners when mated with daughters of O’REILLY.
This cross SAVABEEL over O’REILLY has produced 14 of the stallions 99 Stakes Winners (14%)
The second-best result is with daughters of PINS that has produced 13 Stakes Winners (13%)
The third-best result is with daughters of FLYING SPUR that has produced 5 Stakes Winners (5%)

Another valuable trend we have learned over the years is about our yearling purchases from New Zealand. We like to
bring the colts home straight away but with
fillies, we prefer to
leave them in New Zealand on their rich pastures for at least another
3-4 months.
Traditionally their yearlings are behind in development compared to Australian yearlings, due to growing conditions being a colder, wetter climate. However, they tend to blossom in their Autumn and the
benefit of those pastures during that time is immense.
This can be seen in these photos taken last week.
At the yearling sales horses always look pristine.
It’s summer, they have lighter coats and have been prepared for 10 weeks leading up to the sale with special diets, exercise programmes and grooming.
Naturally, once the sale is over, they are put out into a spelling paddock. Their diet is back to grazing and hard feed without the specialised diet of a sale. They weather changes and cools, their coats become thicker which means they lose that glossy shine.
It's here where the horse either goes through a growth spurt, becoming more mature, bigger and stronger or alternatively, those with weak constitutions can become a bit of a sook and go backwards, not being able to cope with the lack of attention.

Now 4 months after we purchased her and as we head into winter you will see what a difference there is in our filly.
You can see how much stronger she is in the forearms, neck and shoulder and has lengthened along her back.
She has much bigger hindquarter, deep girth and is looking sensational!
Our Filly - Photo taken 22/5 at Waikato Stud. She was brought straight out of the paddock for photo
Our filly being walked so we can see her excellent conformation to her legs
This filly is now so strong she looks like she's a he! Imagine her taking on weaker fillies in races!
It’s getting cold in NZ but at
Waikato Stud which is
NZ’s premier thoroughbred establishment and who were the breeder of the filly we purchased at the sales, their pastures are lush, and our filly has thrived allowing her to build bone and muscle naturally.
Our filly could not have had a better start anywhere.
Our filly was due to fly to Australia yesterday but will now arrive in the next couple of weeks (depending upon plane availability) and we are thrilled with the way she is developing.
She is
not yet broken-in or educated, she is just in
raw, natural condition and we can envisage how she will polish up into a fantastic specimen of thoroughbred by the spring.
She has the genetics, she has the conformation, size and strength to be a success. She has a lovely commercial pedigree page and the planets have aligned.
Our filly is heading to be trained by
“THE PEOPLE’S TRAINER” – RICHARD FREEDMAN at Rosehill.
We are having a great run of success from limited numbers with the stable and last weekend they trained our
15th Winner in 16 months for Team Dynamic so we are thrilled with their results for us.
Most importantly, our owners always enjoy the company of
Richard, Will and Michael at the races.
5% Shares in our sensational SAVABEEL filly are $10,450 inc all costs to 31 July 2020.
