My top broodmare Zenterfold, the “shuttle mare”, was delivered to Isa Lodge by Geoff and Aria yesterday, after the Cambridge workouts.

She’s looking great. She’s in foal to Rock N Roll Heaven.

As readers may know, I alternate foals with the Smalls. The latest 2yo from Zenterfold is Breanna Rose (bred by the Smalls and sold as a weanling for top dollars) is now starting her career with trainer Nathan Williamson down in the South Island. So far she is not disgracing herself at all, and her last start, although 5th, showed tenacity to run home well.

Destination Moon is, as my last blog showed, doing very well and showing that family speed and competitive nature.

So far, all of Zenterfold’s foals have qualified as 2yos – and of her 6 foals of racing age, all except 1 have raced successfully as a 2yo.

Talking with Ray Green, who bought her yearling colt Thephantomtollbooth, at this year’s sales, he is breaking in fine and Ray describes him as a lovely colt.

The McArdle foal just weaned was bred by the Smalls, who describe him as leggy and very friendly, a lovely type.

Zenterfold is now 13 years old and in great trim. She’s certainly broadened out from the fine and fiesty 2yo she was herself.
