Tiger Khan Makes it Two in a Row |
|
Tuesday, 10 November 2009 |
|
 Hold That Tiger has another dual winner in up and coming Tasmanian stayer Tiger Khan.
Trained by Ken Hanson, Tiger Khan made it two on the trot and finally looks like fulfilling the potential Hanson has always seen in him. Winning the Class 1 Weeding Party Hire Club Plate by over 2 lengths was a huge turnaround on where the stayer was at just a few months before and Hanson believes it is a combination of a few things "He certainly wanted more ground but the wet tracks were not suiting him at all," said Hanson. The second win in a row, albeit against almost the same field was certainly more impressive than the maiden victory and showcased the extent of the four-year-olds improvement. "I told the jockey (Brendan McCoull) that he was going better than the previous win and was confident he would win again," said Hanson "After the race Brendan told me he felt like he could've taken off at any point and still won the race." The penny appears to have dropped for the four-year-old and Hanson is confident this rich vein of form will continue. "He just keeps getting better and Brendan was confident that he would win more races." "He has already called the the ride next week!" joked Hanson. Tiger Khan was purchased by Hanson for $16,000 at the 2007 Magic Millions sale in Tasmania and looks like being a good investment already having won in excess of $26,000. |

Court's in Session - By Joel Marshall |
|
Friday, 30 October 2009 |
|
Young Swettenham Stud stallion Court of Jewels is arguably one of the most in-form sires in the country, with several promising youngsters flying the flag in recent weeks. The regally bred son of Danehill from the famed Eight Carat family is achieving some great results for the breeders who have backed him in recent seasons, and the run looks set to continue as more of his progeny hit the track. From limited numbers to date (he’s got around 180 foals on the ground from five breeding seasons), Court of Jewels is quickly starting to rack up the winners. From 35 runners, he’s already had 17 winners of 22 races, as well as seven placegetters. He is now on a real roll, with eight individual winners for the season including seven since September 19. |

Kaphero Handling Stud Duties With Ease |
|
Thursday, 22 October 2009 |
 Kahero
Kaphero was born and bred at Swettenham Stud, from Golden Slipper winning Sire Danzero out of Group 1 winning mare Kapchat, from the immediate family of the top-class gallopers Courtza, O’Reilly, Our Pompeii and Critic. Since arriving back at Nagambie, Kaphero the youngest of the 8 stallions standing at Swettenham Stud has settled in quickly and let down particularly well. In fact his progress has been so stunning he now looks like a stallion who had much more time to let down than Kaphero actually enjoyed. |

Court Of Jewels On A Roll |
|
Thursday, 22 October 2009 |
|
Commands close relation Court Of Jewels has taken some time to find his feet as a stallion but recent results show that patient breeders are reaping rewards. A strike rate of 33% winners to runners from his progeny in the past few weeks shows that as they mature and get over more ground, Court Of Jewels offspring are becoming more competitive. In the past month, Court Of Jewels winners have included Law And Order, Alezzie, Bad Angel (twice), Speech Room and Courtya. With 6 winners from his last 15 runners, owners are getting a great result. 
Particularly pleasing for Swettenham Stud principal, Adam Sangster, was the win of Speech Room at Northam last week. Ridden patiently for the first time, Speech Room motored home to win narrowly but well. His future races will be in Perth. Swettenham Stud Marketing Manager Ian Rimington observed : "From our analysis 90% of Court Of Jewels progeny have performed better than their dams did in their racing career." This capacity to upgrade his mares means that Court Of Jewels represents excellent value at his current service fee of $4,400. Owner/breeders wishing to produce a well conformed horse with staying potential will find some of the best value in Victoria. |
