G1 Goldmine Workshop for Perth

For those interested in one of the better tools available for Breeders in Stallion selection and mare matching, Leo Tsatsaronis from Goldmine, will be holding a free interactive workshop here in Perth next Wednesday & Thursday 11th & 12th of July from 6.00 PM. I use this program with all of the Stallion matching I do for clients, as well as when assessing possible purchases.

If you would like to attend, please email Leo directly on Leo.Tsatsaronis@g1goldmine.com for details.

    Both nights were quite worthwhile and it was interesting to hear the thoughts of Breeders in their Stallion choices and how they came to those conclusions. Every Stallion Owner should have been there in my opinion, they would have learn't something from the diverse comments.

    Damien good to see the night was successful among which breeders? How long was Leo Tsatsaronis practically and theoritically involved with thoroughbreds? The preacher

    The female thoroughbred lines in Perth are fairly exclusive Jungle Boy, Haulpak, Old Spice, Cheraw, Pago Pago, Carry A Smile where does the computer program draw its proven recommendations from there for TURF not DIRT performance success.

    Does the program filter length of the cannon which is a typical difference between American and Australian bred sires?

    I'd rather listen to the stud manager than press Leo's buttons :lol:

    Agree. American / dirt style cannon of much more value in WA.
    Need to filter out all the mud larks.

    I was saying WA Stud Managers should have been there, so they could learn why WA Breeders continue to think that sending mares East is a viable alternative. Nothing to do with their mares at all, they all seemed to like the "Hollywood factor" of high level performing Stallions, irrespective of breeding or conformation issues.

    I would say that marketing had made their decisions for them and not anything to do with genetics. Even those who said they were not going to the sales ring thought along these lines mostly.

    The only stud or stallion owner/managers who attended other than myself, were Peter Giadresco and James Miorada. But there were breeders with many mares to make decisons on.

    I would question the idea of following the Stud Master, as to do so is to follow the advice of someone most likely wearing blinkers as to the quality and breeding potential of their own stallions. So for mine, I will always seek an independant opinion and make my decisions from there, if it is the right choice I don't really mind how much experience the person has who came up with the method of selection.

    He went to a few studs while he was here, hence why it looked like no stallion owners attended.

    How many years experience in the horse industry does a stud master require before being able to apply for the head job.
