Horses Available

We are pleased to announce that the 4yo mare Sonnig will be joining the stable. As you will see from her Walking Video she is a big, scopey mare and impressive type.Sonnig is by the Everest winner Yes Yes Yes out of a Monsun mare, Sunnyvale. She is the half sister to El Soleado who has won six races and gives the family black type that should provide some residual value if we can get Sonnig winning some races.Sonnig has had two starts over unsuitable distances of 1200m and 1400m in strong maiden races in Victoria. Her 1400m effort came in a genuine midweek metropolitan maiden, beaten just 3.4 lengths, and the form has since been franked strongly with four of the other five runners subsequently winning. After these races she has been given time to mature and we believe she now presents as a mare that will appreciate middle distance racing. Whilst being sired by a speed stallion in Yes Yes Yes she looks to have thrown more to the Monsun side with most of the family  performing in the 1600m-2400m range. Races at these distances tend to be less competitive and, as a result, we believe this provides a realistic pathway to winning races with a mare that has been purchased at a reasonable price.She is due to arrive in the stable early next week and will be available for inspection. We are still finalising her transport from Victoria but the cost per 10% ownership interest will be less than $900 including GST.Please call Anthony on 0403 737 956 or send us an email to get involved.

It was a busy day for ACM Racing yesterday! Whilst we were saddling up our impressive Hawkesbury winner, Layin' Four, we were also negotiating the purchase of an absolutely cracking yearling filly from the emerging Darley stallion Earthlight.We inspected this filly early on Sunday and expected her to sell outside of our budget so were quick on the phones when she passed in and were able to negotiate the purchase for $35k. We feel strongly that this is an exceptional buy for a filly of this quality.A little information about Earthlight (https://www.darley.com.au/stallions/our-stallions/earthlight#section--pedigree). He was the Champion 2yo in France in 2019 with a perfect record of 5 starts for 5 wins. As a 3yo he went on to win a further 2 races from 4 starts. As you can see from his pictures and videos at the above link he is a serious stallion who had blistering 2yo speed that he looks certain to pass on to his offspring. With Australia being the premier 2yo racing jurisdiction in the world you can understand why Darley chose to send him down under.Her dam, Poison Ivy, won two races and has had 6 horses to the races with all of them being winners. The best of the progeny was Lotion, by the unfashionable stallion Good Journey, who managed to win a race at 2 along with the all important black type and over $463k in prizemoney. All the family have run and we have 2yo form on both sides of the page which will give us a chance of our filly running early and fast.She will be arriving at the stable today (14 February) so get in contact soon to arrange an inspection and register your interest.
