Van Nistelrooy (USA) has been notching up winners all over the world in June, successfully landing six winners in the space of nine days.
In the USA smart filly Mailey's Cat (USA), was the first to get the ball rolling losing her maiden tag in the Listed TTA Sales Futurity over 1000m at Lone Star Park in Texas on June 9.
Just one day later, Van Nistelrooy was to the fore in Singapore when the promising galloper Onceuponatime (NZ) destroyed his opposition over 1200m by 10.5 lengths at Kranji.
Two additional winners were added to the list in America courtesy of debut wins by Set Play (USA), who scored over 1100m at Hollywood Park in California, and Starry Pursuit (USA), who scored over 900m at Arlington Park in Chicago.
On to England and two more Van Nistelrooy's added to thier sire's tally with victories at Lingfield by Strike The Deal (USA) and Raymi Coya (Can) at Lingfield over 1200m and 1000m respectively.
Back in the Southern Hemisphere there was further success last Friday when the Peter Moody-trained runner Pit Lane (NZ) registered his second Australian win, successfully scoring over 1400m at Bendigo.
And, to top things off nicely, another trails winner was added to Van Nistelrooy's tally in New Zealand with a win by the gelding out of Singing Angel (USA) (Rahy) over 900m at Te Aroha last week.
"It will be fantastic if he can continue to produce winners at this rate," said Brent Taylor of Trelawney Stud. "More and more of his progeny are in line to be stepping out in New Zealand and Australia over the coming months and we're looking forward to seeing more pleasing results," he said. |
