A breeding program based on careful planning when selecting breeding marches and suitable stallions, good diet and good meadows reached a crescendo for Ballarat -Fokker Pat Driscoll in Melton on Saturday evening.
Driscoll’s Yabby Dam Farms brought an amazing four Harness racing winners, including three of the four Nutrien Equine Classic Trotting series in Sam Nien and Tracy the Jet, who reached the $ 125,000 finals for three-year-olds for two-year-old Millies.
Tracy The Jet, who completed a clean sweep from the series, lifted her ring above $ 100,000 Mark with her impressive victory in the stated classic.
Driscoll also thought as the breeder of Lady Vici, who led most of the road to win the Yabby Dam Farms prot, her eighth success from only nine attempts.
Tracy The Jet and Sam Nien sold respectively for $ 70,000 and $ 30,000 at the Nutrien Melbourne Sale in Melbourne in 2023, while Jilliby Aura was purchased for $ 20,000 at the 2024 auction.
“It was a great result for the farm,” said Driscoll. “Nutrien Equine deserves a round of congratulations to set up such a great evening.”
Yabby Dam Farms has so far released seven individual winners of the Nutrien Equine Classic Series. Their earlier winners were Derek The Jet (2024 – 3YOC & G), Valtino (2023 – 2YOC & G), Tradie Lady (2023 – 3YOF) and the locomotive (2022 – 2YOC & G).
Vollead leads all stallions with four winners of the series in forbidden Grace (2024 – 2yof), Maori’s Mac (2024 – 3yof), Sam Niem and Derek de Jet.
Driscoll said that one of the cornerstones of his success was his long -term approach to breeding.
“Our goal is to have every mare produced their best possible foal, taking into account speed, endurance, conformation, size, correctness and temperament,” he said.
