Black Caviar's daughter Oscietra
Black Caviar's daughter Oscietra has made an impressive first public appearance, leading all the way to win a jumpout at Flemington today
The two-year-old filly by Exceed And Excel is the first foal from the champion mare Black Caviar Ridden by Black Caviar's regular jockey Luke Nolen in today's 800m hit-out, Oscietra began quickly to lead the five-horse heat and was never headed in a performance that pleased co-trainer David Hayes Courtesy aap |

Not sure if she has been nominated but 25/1 in the early market, Golden Slipper

Won that jumpout |
LITTLE Caviar Oscietra has been unable to emulate her famous mum Black Caviar by failing to win first-up down the Flemington straight.
But trainer David Hayes has predicted Oscietra will find winning ways ahead despite finishing third on debut. |
David Hayes hinted in an interview after her trials, that she has some ability, but not sure she's anywhere near BC's grade, yet punters sent her out a short priced favourite.
After the race, Mr Hayes didn't look that disappointed, just said maybe she went too hard early and would talk to the jockey. Based on her trials, one would probably send her out favourite, but the chances of her winning Black type races is small. As any breeder would know, champions inherit certain genes from their parents and grandparents. The genes combine and become dominant under certain circumstances. The point is, she'll throw some handy foals, but the chances of any one of them being a champion, are probably 100/1. Even full brothers and sisters to champions rarely are as good for the same reason. Case in point Octagonal sired so many horses, yet Lonhro was the only one to come close, still not as good. |

The early form around the winner of the race, Limestone, has been excellent |
Wise move for the trainer to spell Oscietra imo
|

Watched the replay, didn't finish too far behind the winner |
Yep the run didn't look too bad but Hayes concerned she didn't really settle
Hence more education |
And how much did they pay for her? ;)

Quote:
Too much ;) |
And two more to come
A colt by Sebring & a filly by Snitzel |
Quote:
The colt by Sebring has been named Prince of Caviar |
Quote:
Will be trained by Team Hawkes |
Black Caviar is due to foal this year to Sebring's sire More Than Ready (USA)

Crikey, they're greedy trying to extract a foal every year.
My research indicates that when one uses a mare as a breeding machine, they don't have time to recover, they need at least one year off, as one prominent breeder agreed and does with great success. Otherwise the foals don't tend to get the full benefit of the vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and proper formation and conformation of highly crucial areas. If a mare doesn't have time to recover and rebuild herself (lets not forget she's lactating the whole time), this can lead to dead, slipped, or inferior foals. |

Already nominated for the 2018 $1.5 million Ladbrokes Blue Diamond Stakes. |

According to co-trainer Michael Hawkes, Prince of Caviar is progressing well "He's been in the Rosehill stable to learn the system. He got to have a good look around and did everything right education wise. He's a lovely, well balanced colt." |
Oscietra back in work
|
Won Geelong Synthetic Race 3. Went quickly to the lead, got one length on the field at the turn then held them safely down the straight.
Next run on turf in the city. Perhaps in 3 weeks' time at Moonee Valley. Trainer Hayes confident that she'll be a black type winner. I don't know much about conformation or strides, but I don't think it's a matter of timing or happenstance that she resumed on synthetic. |
Oscietra has been nominated for both the Thousand Guineas & Caulfield Classic in October
|
Yes, but team Hayes nominate all their horses for everything, especially 2yo's, he says so himself.
He says that Catchy is as good as Miss Finland, good type of horse, but can't see it myself, he probably knows something about the horse which we haven't seen. |
Flemington R4 tomorrow
|
Ran 9th beaten 5.2 lengths.
|
Gone to the spelling paddock
