SO WHAT’S BORING?
So who said that life is dull in a racing stable…? On Monday, Niebelung won again in Kimberley and the transport broke down on the way home…. On Thursday, we bought Way West, the sire who has been so good to us over the years. Basically, we got him for a pittance and he will come and stand up here, more for his freedom and a nice big paddock than for anything else.
It’s strange to us, this racing world, when a sire like this just loses his commercial value. Over and above Waywest Goddess’s special achievements for us, every other Way West has won for us, barring Little Oke. But, he will win within his next two starts. Our other Way West in the yard, West We Go, still only a 3 year old, followed up her maiden win , with a good 3rd place in open company, just 2 weeks ago. Mind boggling! And today, it’s off to Melbourne, via Sydney, to the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale …..
We will keep you posted……
