Here is the latest harness racing two-year-old money winning Sires list in North America and at Harnesslink we will keep you up to date every Friday, New Zealand and Australian time with the actual statistics.
For breeders down under this is an important time for deciding on what stallion they need to breed their mare to this coming season.
The new first season sires are well on their way to giving some indication of what chance they have of competing with the established sires.
From a breeders point of view they need the facts rather than the bluster from the Stallion Owners as to what they breed to this coming season is going to impact their financial situation in three years time.
Somebeachsomewhere and his great son Captaintreacherous still lead the list of money winning two-year-olds with just over four months left of the 2020 racing season in North America.
A lightly raced son of champion sire Somebeachsomewhere in So Surreal made the top 20 list this week for the first time. He is from the Sweetheart winner and top stakes filly Must See p,2,1:52 ($487,122) and half-brother to the brilliant racehorse and top young stallion Well Said p,3,1:47.s ($2,569,342).
