Wai Eyre Farm and Macca Lodge in New Zealand have secured the services of US Captain, a top-notch harness racing stallion. The decision was driven by the desire to offer breeders a well-bred stallion at an affordable price. US Captain, a son of Captaintreacherous, boasts an impressive racing record with 22 wins and a mark of 1:49.
Trained by Tony Alagna, US Captain was praised for his exceptional speed and genetic potential. With a pedigree that includes World Champions on both sides, US Captain is set to make a significant impact in the breeding industry. His dam, American Jewel, a world champion race mare, has a lineage traced back to Hall of Fame pacing filly Three Diamonds, known for producing successful sires and champions.
Having spent two successful breeding seasons in North America, US Captain is highly fertile, and his progeny have been well-received by breeders. His arrival in New Zealand is eagerly anticipated, with expectations high for his future offspring.
Wai Eyre Farm has made strategic decisions to support breeders by reducing fees and offering incentives for mare owners. US Captain’s service fee of $3,000 + gst makes him an attractive option for breeders, especially those with Bettor’s Delight mares, a prevalent bloodline in New Zealand.
By keeping US Captain 100% New Zealand-owned, the industry stands to benefit from retaining earnings within the country. The stallion’s eligibility for Harness 5000 and Next Gen programs further enhances his appeal to breeders looking for quality bloodlines and potential returns.
The collaboration between Wai Eyre Farm and Macca Lodge signifies a commitment to advancing the breeding landscape in New Zealand. With a focus on affordability and quality, US Captain’s introduction to the market is poised to make a positive impact on the harness racing industry.
