18th Stakes Winner Emphasises Nadeems value
Few stallions in NZ can compare with Nadeem for his ability to leave a stakes winner and he’s certainly unique in this role for a sire who stands at $4,000 plus GST. On Friday, the son of Redoute’s Choice secured an 18th black-type winner when Victory Eight (Nadeem-Queen’s Colours by Rainbow Quest) scored in the (1400m) Wayne Wilson Quality Handicap in Queensland on Friday.
Victory Eight, a $30,000 purchase from the 2015 Karaka Select Sale, joins the LA bred Tinkalicious (Nadeem-Tinkermia by Johar) as stakeswinners for Nadeem in 2020.
Further south in NSW on Friday, Per Incanto’s good Australian run continued with a most impressive debut performance by the Lib Petagna bred Lost and Running (Per Incanto-Dreamlife by Danroad). Starting a short-priced favourite after a Randwick trial win earlier this month, the 3YO won as he liked, setting a course record for the 1000m of 56 seconds, despite sitting three and four wide throughout.
