Introducing ~

NOVEMBER AIR -

Raced; 3YO Brown Filly

By PIERATA (By PIERRO)
From CHICKALETTA (By REDOUTE'S CHOICE)

Dynamic Syndications always keep an eye out for horses we believe have plenty of upside that we can purchase and offer to our current and former owners, to keep the winners flowing and cut down the waiting time from purchase to the sport.

As per most aspects in life, it’s not just what you know but also who you know, and in our position, the relationships we have with industry participants.

Team Dynamic’s Adam Watt has a close business relationship with Rob Archibald, co-trainer with Annabel Neasham.

After a phone call confirming various aspects we needed to know, we have purchased NOVEMBER AIR - a 3yo brown filly that we are confident will be gracing the Winners Circle many times into the future.

November Air at Bimbadeen Park on Wednesday 6 November - she has put on 37kgs in 3 weeks and now weighs 470kgs

We have always kept an eye upon this brown filly’s progress through the Neasham/ Archibald stable because we were of the opinion at the yearling sales, that she was an absolute glamour. Back then we made her a real target to put into our Dynamic silks.

As things would turn out, the brown filly by PIERATA (Pierro) ex CHICKALETTA (Redoute’s Choice) would go home with another owner from the saleyard who had deeper pockets.

We had valued the filly at four times service fee of $40,000 + GST (Note that Pierata Service Fee increased to $60,000 + GST in 2024) That valued her to us at $160,000 plus one bid to $170,000.

However, we were knocked out of bidding race at $170,000, when bidding kept going and the hammer fell at $220,000 to Justin Fung (TFI) / Aquis / Kacy Fogden Racing Qld.

NOVEMBER AIR as a yearling at Raheen Stud prior to the yearlings sales in 2023

The filly was foaled and raised at Raheen Stud, a good thoroughbred nursery in Queensland, from whom we had purchased multiple Gr1 winner Atomic Force.

This filly was from the first crop of PIERATA, a winner of 9 races inc the ATC All Aged S., Gr1 Shorts Gr2, Missile Gr2, Sydney S, Gr3, Vo Rogue S Gr3 and Magic Millions Guineas. PIERATA made an immediate impact at stud with his first crop, finishing third on the premiership ladder with 9 winners and 2 stakes winners. A remarkable start for a sire whose progeny will keep getting better with age.

The Dam was CHCKALETTA, an unraced daughter of champion sire Redoute’s Choice from the Stakes Winner & Stakes Placegetter BEYONCE’S STAR.

Whilst CHICKALETTA is also a half-sister to Gr2 and Gr3 Winner OAK DOOR (Commands).

CHICKALETTA is a direct descendant of SOLO PERFORMANCE (3rd Dam), who was the 2nd Top 2yo Filly in Australia in 82-83 and is the Dam of Listed Winner CLOUT and also Gr2 Winner SOLO SHOW (Dam of Gr2 Winner TOAST OF THE COAST – Grandam of Gr1 Winner SUPER SETH (Dundeel) and Gr2 Winner WILD PLANET (Animal Kingdom)).

Our Genetic Rating Score on this cross of PIERRO over REDOUTE’S CHOICE is A+++.

Since the sales, the elder half-sister Amalfi Queen has raced and won over 1100m.

Our belief in the filly at that time was she should make into a lovely 3yo, but may need the time as she was a touch immature, and she should grow and develop into a tremendous autumn 3yo.

Aquis gave the filly to their main trainers Annabel Neasham and Rob Archibald, but the owners became a little impatient and wanted to push the filly through their system, when she was physically and mentally not ready.

NOVEMBER AIR on debut at Newcastle

NOVEMBER AIR went to the sport on debut as a late 2yo on 13 July on a Soft 6 surface and did plenty wrong when finishing a respectful 1.58 lengths away in fourth spot at Newcastle over 1200m. Drifting in the market from $12 to $26, she led but tired over the final 100m.

Second-up on the 4 August at Wyong over 1200m on a Soft 5 surface, NOVEMBER AIR settled midfield in a fast run race and again did things wrong through inexperience, hanging out in the straight to finish 5th only 1.08 length from the winner, having been firm in the market $4.80, $6.5, $6.

At her third run for the preparation, on 22 August she went to Hawkesbury in what would prove a very hot maiden, which delivered exceptional formlines.

NOVEMBER AIR running third at Hawkesbury

NOVEMBER AIR had flashing lights when finishing 3rd of 14 runners, only 1.25 lengths behind Spanish Fox (4yo g.) and Listentozou (4yo g.). Subsequently Spanish Fox has now won 5 in a row – Hawkesbury, then again Hawkesbury, Kensington, Warwick Farm and Rosehill, whilst Listentozou came out and won at Eagle Farm.

The fourth horse home was Show County (4yo g.) and he won its next start at Wyong. The fifth horse was Fiftyfivechevy (3yo g.) who came out and won at its next start at Muswellbrook. The sixth horse Le Chocolat (4yo g.) ran second at its next start to a horse that would frank the form by running third in a Gr3 and then a Gr1 at its next two starts. The seventh horse Gone Bananas (3yo g.) won its next start at Hawkesbury. Whilst the tenth horse home Dubai Dame (4yo m.) also subsequently won.

NOVEMBER AIR was a lightly framed 3yo filly this spring, and was just overpowered by the older and stronger males in the early spring.

Accordingly, NOVEMBER AIR had done a wonderful job for this prep as an immature 3yo filly.

She logically should have been sent for a spell because she had lightened off significantly.

However, the stable were overruled, and she was kept in work. Annabel and Rob tried to freshen the filly up and gave her five weeks between runs, and she was sent to a 1500m maiden on a Heavy 8 at Goulburn on 26 September. She found a hot race where the winner was Duvana, who had previously been 3rd to Storm Boy and Prost in the Skyline S., Gr2, before a spell and had resumed at the Kensington track for a 5th placing. It went to Goulburn to do a job and it started $1.50 and won by 4.52 lengths. NOVEMBER AIR raced as a very tired filly and didn’t like the sticky conditions. She whacked away into fifth over a distance that was too far on a very testing track at this stage of her development.

She was sent for a spell. She was as light as a cork and in desperate need for a break.

The owners said, “sell her” and was placed in the Inglis online sale.

She has been paid up for BOBS and Magic Millions.

NOVEMBER AIR 3yo Brown Filly, 7-Sep-2021, by PIERATA from CHICKALETTA.

Summary: 4-0:0:1 & Prizemoney: $9,475.

4th of 11 (1.58) at Newcastle;
5th of 7 (1.08) at Wyong;
3rd of 14 (1.25) at Hawkesbury;
5th of 9 (9.57) at Goulburn.

Adam at Dynamic Syndications noted she was in the sale and rang Rob. Adam was told that Annabel and Rob didn’t want to lose the filly and were putting feelers out to see whom among their friends/clients could buy her and keep NOVEMBER AIR in the stable.

Adam confirmed we would be interested up to a price. We set our ceiling price. When the bidding closed, she was ours at $50,000 + GST.

To us at Dynamic and to the trainers that represented great value.

BELOW: Hear from ANNABEL NEASHAM after we purchased NOVEMBER AIR

This was $120,000 less than the $170,000 we had bid on her at the yearling sale.

That’s a discount of 70.6%. And it was 77.3% less than the $220,000 she was purchased for as a yearling.

We had her vetted out at the yearling sales and she was clean. Nothing has changed from a veterinary position.

She was just a tired filly who was an immature 3yo taking on the older horses and the males.

She was just not physically and mentally mature enough to cope, but the formlines speak for themselves.

1200m to 1400m are her distances and genetically she is perfect.

We purchased NOVEMBER AIR on 18 October.

We transported her from the spelling farm their stable use, to Shane Rose’s Bimbadeen Park. She arrived on 21 October.

She was very light, weighing just 433kgs. After the first 14 days she was re-weighted and was already 25kgs heavier at 458kgs.

She was re-weighed on Friday 8 November had was now 470kgs after just 3 weeks she has put on 37 kgs which is a massive 8.5% of her bodyweight.

November Air at Bimbadeen Park on Wednesday 6 November - she has put on 37kgs in 3 weeks and now weighs 470kgs

BELOW - Video of NOVEMBER AIR at BIMBADEEN PARK on 6 November

She is 37 kgs heavier than when she arrived 3 weeks ago! (Note: No Audio with video)

Our plan is to leave her in the spelling paddock until the end of November, before she returns to pre-training with Shane Rose for 4 weeks, then head back into Warwick Farm. We expect she will be racing in February.

She is a lovely filly with obvious ability and still has the easiest race available to her.

All the money has been spent and the guess work has been taken out of the equation, as seen with the formlines from the races in which she has competed.

We loved her as a yearling, and she has become better with age.

In our opinion she was pushed too far last prep at the instructions of the previous owners and lightened off. She will continue to furnish and strengthen, and we strongly suspect she is set for a nice Autumn on the track.
(a) The stable wanted to keep her,
(b) we wanted to buy her,
(c) the genetics back her,
