Riverrock Farm's Chad Ormsby is excited about the draft he has on offer this year at the New Zealand Bloodstock Ready To Run Sale.
“As a trainer and jockey I’ve got a good understanding of what a good horse feels like and how they need to be educated. I would be happy to have any one of the horses in this year’s draft joining my stable.
We are offering a strong line up of well-bred fillies, colts from champion stallions such as Savabeel and Sweynesse and I’m pretty excited about the prospects of lots 10 (Vanbrugh – Diamantaire), 306 (Nicconi- Whymelo), 158 (Charm Spirit x Oh Dee Jay) and 189 (Cosmic Force – Princess Marizza).
This year we also applied the Equimetre to all of our breeze-up horses and have made this data available on both ours and New Zealand Bloodstock’s website. The data on max speed, stride length, stride frequency and locomotive profile provides more transparency and also gives purchasers another perspective on the future prospects of the horses.
Purchasers have had good success from our draft with more than 65% becoming winners, 78% being placed at least once and most racing on beyond their 3yo season. We would like to hope this gives buyers confidence that the horses haven’t been pushed too early, have been well educated and are quality, robust horses.
If anyone wants further insight or any information about any of our lot numbers please give me a call on 0277107134."
