Champion Sire ENCOSTA DE LAGO has had a sensational last week capping off a good month for the Dynamic Sire. He has managed to sire eight individual winners in the last 7 days with his tally over the previous 30 days coming to 25 winners. Of these 25 to hit the track, 10 have come in city grade with owners seeing big returns.
Encosta De Lago continues to be a Dynamic Sire
Encosta De Lago’s progeny will be hard at work again over the weekend with six son and daughter’s of Encosta set to line up in city meets. Encosta is a sire who continues to produce the goods on track season after season. He has won numerous sire titles and continues to set the benchmark for younger stallions who one day hope to finish with a record like Encosta De Lago already has.
Encosta De Lago’s first crop came through in 1998 and since that time he has built up a record that is unmatched by any sire in Australasia. Encosta has had 1308 runners to hit the track for 889 individual winners at a strike rate of 68% runners to winners. Among these 889 winners, he has had 93 individual stakes winners and a further 100 stakes placed horses through his time as a sire. With his current strike rate it would be no surprise to see Encosta break through the 100 stakes winners barrier later this season, a figure which only very few sires have ever reached.
Dynamic Syndications have two wonderful opportunities to get involved with racing an Encosta De Lago. The first of these has already shown us that he has the goods to live up to the lofty standards of his record setting father. Dynamic Syndications purchased our ENCOSTA DE LAGO – PETTA GAYE colt at the Magic Millions sales in January of 2012. Upon their arrival at our pre-training farm at Wild Oaks and subsequently being broken in by expert horse educationist Shane Rose, we were given the heads up that this athletic colt had every chance of living up to his quality staying pedigree.

At this point it was decided that we would try a new, fresh form of Syndication which enabled each of his would be owners to see how good he was prior to buying a share. After consultation with the whole Dynamic team including Sydney’s leading trainer Chris Waller who had already agreed to bring the horse into his care, we decided to fly the colt over to New Zealand and let him breeze up in the New Zealand Ready to Run sale.
We never had any intention of selling him rather, our intension was to let our clients see him breeze up over 200m to give them confidence they were purchasing a high quality product. Our colt did this and so much more! Breezing up in a time of 10.67, well inside the average of 10.85 he was never pushed out showing the turn of foot of a sprinter despite being bred to stay a trip. You can watch him breeze up in the video below.
There is only limited shares available on this sensationally bred colt who will be aimed at races like the Gr1 TJ Smith Classic in the Brisbane winter carnival and then onto the Gr1 VRC Derby during the Spring. He is currently in pre-training work at Wild Oaks and is only a couple of weeks away from arriving with the inform Chris Waller. 5% shares are available for $13,250 a share and with 80% of the horse sold, you have to hurry to secure your share in this top quality individual.

The second of our Encosta De Lago’s was also purchased at the Magic Millions sales however this filly was purchased just a few weeks ago at the 2013 sale. She is an exceptionally bred filly produced by Coolmore Stud, the home of Encosta De Lago and a place that Dynamic have had a lot of success with since we started syndicating.
This filly is out of unraced mare PRETTY FLAMINGO who was a $625,000 weanling purchase before unfortunately breaking down before getting to the track. She is the grand-dam of the $5 million mare MILANOVA who also happens to be a full sister to Champion 2yo and extremely successful sire, HOLY ROMAN EMPEROR.

Dynamic are currently in the process of register this extremely well related mare with racing NSW and are just waiting on official approval before creating her own personal website. The share price of this filly has already been determined and she will be available in 20 share partnerships with full owners privileges at $8,580 a share.
After years of success with this dynamic stallion, the results have proved that it is hard to go wrong with a well related, well conformed son or daughter of Encosta De Lago. Dynamic Syndications will continue to buy yearlings by the leading sires which leads us to more race winners going forward. We are excited about both the filly and the colt we currently have by Encosta De Lago and would love you to become part of our team in these two racehorses with a big future.
