A Renaissance for NSW sire

The stock of the multiple Group 1 winning Art Major horse Renaissance Man, now at Yirribee Pacing Stud in the NSW Riverina, continue to shine in Western Australia.

Medieval Man, a four-year-old gelding by Renaissance Man and one of his second crop, outstayed a handy field over 2536 metres at Gloucester Park last Friday (August 6). It was the gelding’s 11th win and tipped his stake earnings over the $80,000 mark.

At the midweek Gloucester Park meeting, the Renaissance Man three-year-old Arma Einstein comfortably defeated older, more experienced rivals over 2130 metres, zipping home in 57.1 seconds.

Future Ex-wife, a two-year-old filly by Fear The Dragon, won a division of the Buckeye Stallion Series in 1:54.6 at Scioto Downs recently. The North America Cup winner has sired the winners of $496,000 with 19 in 2:00 and six in 1:55.

Boomer Rock, a two-year-old gelding by Warrawee Needy, led from end-to-end to win his second race at Penrith. The former world champion pacer has sired 19 winners from 37 starters in Australia to date.

Promising Tintin In America three-year-old American Bullitt posted his third win at Bunbury, while reigning NSW Sire of the Year Million Dollar Cam produced winners at Bathurst in Bill Shannon (1:57) and in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with Eastend Eddie (1:54.2).

Renaissance Man, Fear The Dragon, Warrawee Needy, Tintin In America and Million Dollar Cam are all members of the Yirribee Pacing Stud roster for the 2021/22 season.
