Ballymore Stables have identified the NZ Derby in March for Tuesday’s seven length Kilmore maiden winner Arbitrage (Rip Van Winkle-My First Fifteen by Danasinga).
Bred by JML Bloodstock and sold from our 2014 Karaka Premier draft to Paul Moroney for $100,000, the three-year-old colt clearly appreciated the firm track conditions and step up in distance.
Arbitrage hails from the same family as Saturday’s sensational 2000 Guineas winner Xtravagent (Pentire-Axiom by Zabeel).
The Wolf (Rip Van Winkle-Baradevi) bred by Barlow Thoroughbreds and Little Avondale is also being set for the same race.
