Yesterday’s Group Two Coupland’s Bakeries Mile winner Scapolo (Bachelor Duke) is from the Zabeel mare Kadesa.
The win in the $230,000 Riccarton Park feature moves Zabeel to the lead on the New Zealand Broodmare Sire ladder, a premiership he has won for the past two season’s straight.
It’s exactly the same story in Australia right now; Zabeel sits at the head of the Broodmare Sire Premiership and it’s a title he’s won for the past two seasons there as well.
