I have discovered a fantastic Horse Tracker where you enter a Dam and the Tracker will trace all her progeny’s and her daughters progeny Trials and Race Day nominations and results – FREE of charge.
I have been trialing this system before recommending it. Currently I am tracking over 120 Mares (and their families), a report is emailed through summarising the horses racing, therefore I am not swamped with emails and notifications.
Visit www.arion.co.nz and see for yourself. I suggest try tracking the Gran Dam’s of Bradbury Park’s NZ Bloodstock yearling draft, thus giving you up to date information surrounding the whole family rather than just the Dam’s progeny.
