Looking For A DS Or DS Alternative
LOOKING FOR A DS OR DDS ALTERNATIVE
Welcome to my first article on DDS and DS Alternatives I hope to find ideas for people to try prospects on using other DDS and DS sire’s. This time I intend to introduce you to one of the sires I have found as one of the forgotten sires.
Vain : He is by Wilkes who is also a leading sire who is by Court Martial A sire that I believe is well known for most of you that makes him a double cross to Phalaris and Hyperion a cross that many breeders loved and wanted. His records shows as:
Australian Champion Racehorse of the year 1969 to70
Leading sire in Australian between 83 and 84
Leading broodmare sire
Entered the Australian racing horse of fame in 2003
Sire of 370 winners and 44 stakes winners
Champion sprinter up to 8 furlongs
Vain became a wanted commercial broodmare sire to many studs in Australia and New Zealand with great success and he can be found in bloodlines such as for example:
Black Caviar double x
Sir Dapper Sire stakes winner
dam sire of Adebisi stake winner
dam sire Centaine Sire and stakes winner
dam sire of Bel esprit sire and stakes winner
In the Sim
Well he seems to be hardly used as a dam-sire he has only 13 runners and a success rate of 69.2 percent winners. One of his runners, WARMAN, has earned a top speed of 113 on turf and shows he has a DI of 3.00 so we can see that he can produce.
So we bred 3 horses with Vain as dam-sire for this article as a trial:
Surprise Surprise : 3 starts 1 win race sp 69 as a DS 2yr
Here It Is: 2 starts for a speed of 77 as a DS 3yr
