Pins Outstanding Australasian Value

1 August 2011

If you were wondering how Pins stacks up against his Australian peers for global earnings last season, check out Arion’s homepage www.arion.co.nz (see image left).

With international progeny earnings of over NZ$11million, Pins is New Zealand’s leading stallion in 2010/2011 for global earnings.

Such a haul sees him more than foot it with the big boys in Australia. At season end, this is how they fared:

1	Encosta de Lago	A$11,575,262
2	Redoute’s Choice	$10.589,475
3	Lonhro	$9,993,362
4	More Than Ready	$8,924,362

New winner for Noverre

Noverre has another winner on the board after Platinum La Danse produced a dazzling last-to-first run to break her maiden at just her fourth career start.

The Corner with Garry Chittick

The two of you will be aware of my ongoing concern as to the future of our sport. You could argue I have a vested interest; well, I did have, but my interest now is to give the future generations the opportunity my generation had. Now I can tell you, hand on heart, there were many financial thin times. 1975 was my fledgling start with five mares on 130 acres that occasionally flooded with the well-bred, non-race-winning Super Gray.
