Stallion Soho Tribeca will be trucking back to Llowalong Farms in northern Victoria next week to line up for his third season at the breeding caper.
So far, he has bred in excess of 100 mares across Australia in each of his first two seasons at stud.
There are currently 86 foals (now weanlings) registered with HRA from his debut crop.
Reports coming in from around the country suggest these debut foals are correct, athletic, of a good size and with perfect temperaments – this pretty much describes Soho Tribeca himself! Take a look below at some of his perfect 2021 crop.
In the off season, Soho Tribeca has been enjoying a sojourn to the training track and he recently competed in two trials in Victoria – covering his last half in both trials in 0:54 with change.
He will celebrate his 10th birthday in less than four months and it’s over 1100 days since he last competed in a race, so these sectionals are testament to his natural athletic ability.
It’s really no wonder when we look at his impeccable breeding - his sire, American Ideal, continues to churn out stakes winners in both hemispheres and when you look at the his bloodlines, the names of two of the most influential stallions in our pacing world today stand out like shining beacons – Western Ideal and Matts Scooter.
Then his dam is a ‘royal’ blueblood. Pixel Perfect is a daughter of Australia’s leading sire of broodmares in Art Major and her seven winning progeny have now racked up almost $2.5 million in combined earnings.
This was good enough for Pixel Perfect to win an Australian Broodmare of the Year Award, duplicating what her mother Amarillen had already achieved.
Racetrack victories over some of the immortals of our industry including Lazarus, Lennytheshark, Chicago Bull and Tiger Tara, add to the imposing credentials of the tall, athletic Soho Tribeca.
His progeny of course are eligible for the $12,000 VicBred Pure First Win Bonus if your mare is bred and foaled in Victoria. His advertised service fee will remain at $3,000 (inc GST).
