With his oldest progeny now three year-olds,
Reward for Effort is the leading Victorian based second season sire by earnings,
stakes winners and winners. He is fourth on the overall Australian Second Season Sires List and doing a great job. He must be doing something right as ten trainers actually sent their own mares to him last season.
Yearling buyers have been quick to recognize his growing success with 14 of his stock averaging $97,500 at the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale highlighted by a show-stopping colt from Batik that made $380,000 for Supreme Thoroughbreds when secured by China Horse Club with James Harron Bloodstock the under-bidder.
He was the most profitable of all Victorian based sires represented at the sale in terms of multiple of service fee and his colt from Batik was the fourth highest priced of the sale and single highest priced offering by a Victorian based sire.
Chatswood Stud are really pleased with their other young sire in Caulfield Guineas winner Anacheeva. His fee remains unchanged at $6,600
The Group I winning son of Anabaa (USA) had just two yearlings offered in Session II at Inglis Premier and both were sold for $65,000 and $30,000 giving him an average of $47,500 off a $6,600 fee (inclusive of GST)
He also had a colt from Wyndam Belle sell for $70,000 at the NZB Select Yearling Sale, so is certainly capable of getting a commercial yearling that can please the market.
