Plavius – $9.2M yearling (one of the last Danzigs), won £25k in total prize money. Last seen tailed off in Dubai 2010, gelding op registered in 2013.
The Godolphin lads thought they had a live 2yo at the weekend.
Smashed up at all rates in the morning, NR early in the afternoon. What on earth happened on the way to the racecourse?
Startling stuff, but for balance you’d need to see how it all turned out from a profit/loss angle. Did he never buy anything that went on to win plenty and attract mares at big fees?
And how do other prominent bloodstock buyers do in comparison?
Unfair not to go back further since there is much more data, but here are Godolphin’s G1 winners since the start of 2016:
Holler (Darley homebred)
Tryster (150k Ferguson buy)
Astern (Darley homebred)
Hartnell (originally a Mark Johnston bargain buy)
Thunder Snow (Darley homebred)
It’s Somewhat (Mark Johnston private purchase)
Polarisation (Darley homebred)
Ribchester (private purchase)
Impending (Darley homebred)
Barney Roy (private purchase)
Harry Angel (private purchase)I’ll go back further if I have the time in the next few days but Fergie has hardly been the leading source of their best horses lately.
