Stallion shuttle service

Holy roman emperor a coolmore shuttle stallion has had 2 runners in sa,all undefeated wth 6 wins between them.With the sad passing of jet master and the improving quarantine restrictions.Do we realy need some overseas blood to inject some power into our bloodstock.

Actually one of babies were defeated at scottsville, I can't remember the name but its owned by my mate costa and trained by howells, apparently something was amiss with the horse that day and its now on the farm

BC the horse in question is Queen's Party,Kaya we have Trippi, Var and others so all is not lost..

What happened to my beloved Western Winter?

Slipped down the packing order since you left CK ...good to hear you enjoying it down under..have you perhaps heard anything about Paul Whitmore? and is it true Glynn has picked up a six week "holiday"?

did some other wise arse not start a Holy Roman Emperor thread to highlight the capability of this rather mediocre sire.....:S

Maybe someone else should have done one for some other ozzie sire....Kaya there are plenty HRE's in the UK and a crop in Ozz... we seem to have 2 of the better performers here and yes local breeders import sires at a rate of a almost 5 a year that is where our genetic improvement is supposed to come from....as for shuttling to SA it is not economically possible due to our AHS problems...Silvino and Kabool were orginally supposed to shuttle and got "trapped" here...:

So muhti y do u calli HRE a mediocre sire .

He is regarded so in the UK....and some local boffin(s) have challenged my HRE thread on other sites.....I find his ped picture easy to read and the 4 (that I know of,that we have here) are really nice types....

Jeez muhti you nd some uk boffins are hard to plz.OK ok HRE dsnt hve a bettr racing resume( 2 grade one wins) ahead of stable hot boys like gallileo montjeu high chapparal. So i presume he wont get the all the best gal in the yard.But he was the leading 2 year old sire last year in terms of total prize money nd number of winners in uk/ireland although with no group one winner .Nt to shabby 4 smbdy whs damsire is greatest damsire in mordern times SECRETARIAT

I can't say I'm sorry that Silvano got "trapped" here.< But I get the point, and obviously to freely shuttle stallions wouild bolster the quality of our bloodstock tremendously. We'd never be able to afford to do irt on the same scale as the Aussies, but one stallion I'd enjoy seeing pop in for an annual visit to these shores is Footstepsinthesand. I dunno why, I just think he'd suit SA and I reckon he's going to throw a few bombs here and there.

I agree mr lips storm cat nd blushing groom 2 very influential sires here in mzansi ie var(storm cat) jallad(blushingroom).But it seems danehill is big in kzn is it because of the Mr prospector northern guest influence ?

plenty of very mediocre Holy roman emperors running in the Uk and Ireland
