There
are few sires priced around the $30,000 mark offering as much bang for buck as Not a Single Doubt who posted his 23rd two year-old winner of the
season when Love Goes On took the $25,000 Jack Maher Classic at Wodonga on
Wednesday.
The Henry Dwyer trained gelding bolted in to score by more than two lengths on
debut in the 1200 metre contest that featured runners from leading trainers such
as Robert Smerdon and Peter Moody.
A $50,000 Inglis Premier purchase from the draft of Supreme Thoroughbreds, Love
Goes On is the first winner for Love Train, an unraced sister to dual Group I
winner Carnegie Express.
Not a Single Doubt leads the Two Year Old Sires by winners list with 23
winners, two ahead of his Arrowfield barn mate Snitzel on 21.
He topped this division last year with 25 winners and a look at Australian Studbook
reveals just why this son of Redoute's Choice has been so successful for the
past two seasons with his babies.
His current two and three year-olds stem from his two biggest foal crops, 132
and 131 foals, conceived when he was starting to gain traction as a sire and
attracting large numbers of better quality mares.
His current two year-olds are his first crop conceived at a higher fee of
$24,750, so they are entitled to be his best crop so far.
