Aldebaran Park bred trotters enjoyed success in three different countries during July 2021.

Pink Galahs (T 1.54.3), a daughter of Aldebaran Park flagship SKYVALLEY and the recently crowned Victorian 3YO Trotting Filly of the Year in 2020, provided the highlight of the month, making a clean sweep of the Darrell J. Alexander Trotting Championship series at Albion Park.

Starting from a 20-metre handicap, Pink Galahs overwhelmed a top field in the Group 1 $52,000 final at a 2:00.7 rate over 2647 metres – only 0.9 outside the track record.

She has now won 16 races and $273,654 and is SKYVALLEY’s richest female and second leading overall stakes earner.

Tornado Valley NZ (T 1.53.1 - $996,797), was crowned the 2020 Victorian Aged Trotting Entire/Gelding of the Year, is the richest progeny of SKYVALLEY.

Kyvalley Boomerang, who brought up win number 20 at Menangle, Dragonfly (Melton) and the Auckland winner Kimkar Dash were other recent winners sired by SKYVALLEY.

In North America, brilliant three-year-old colt Sonofamistery (Muscle Hill - Mistery Woman), who was jointly bred by Aldebaran Park and Millstream Farm, captured one of the country’s most prestigious trotting classics, the $138,000 Stanley Dancer Memorial, in a career-best 1:50.4 at The Meadowlands.

A $176,000 yearling, Sonofamistery subsequently finished an unlucky fourth in an elimination of the iconic Hambletonian and qualified for the $1 million final run on August 8 at the Meadowlands.

Aldebaran Revani (T3 – 1.54.8 - Donato Hanover - Coffeecake Hanover), a four-year-old mare raced by Aldebaran Park, has made a brilliant start to her down under career, winning twice at Menangle in 1:54.9 and 1:56.5 from three starts. She looks to have a bright future.

Aldebaran Park bred or owned a pair of winners in New Zealand during July in Aldebaran Heather and Aldebaran Flame.

Aldebaran Heather, an older half-sister by Trixton to this year’s 2021 NZ Trotting Oaks victor Aldebaran Floss (from the mare Another Love), won her first race at her third start at Addington, while the three-year-old filly Aldebaran Flame (Trixton-Fire in The Night) overcame a 30-metre handicap to score her second success at Auckland.

On the home front, the Aldebaran Park bred and owned Aldebaran Tess (Muscle Hill-Solar Powered) won twice at Melton and boast six wins from 13 starts, while the Aldebaran Park co-owned Aldebaran Belle. (Dream Vacation-Chiola Belle) won three races in the space of a fortnight on Victorian country tracks.

To complete a massive month, a pair of Aldebaran Park bred three-year-old fillies in Aldebaran Yahtzee (Sebastian K-Charming Yankee) and Aldebaran Dianna (Father Patrick-Bromac Aldebaran) won at Bendigo and Globe Derby Park respectively.
