  • 2017 Sabotra Yearlingsa
    NOTES Message from Harness Racing SA Chairman, Chris Hartwig On behalf of HRSA I am delighted to see the expanded 2017 Yearling Sale build upon the success of last year’s event. This is the 3rd iteration of the re-birth of the SA Yearling Sale, and I would like to congratulate BOTRA and their Sales Committee for their efforts in making this sale happen. HRSA recognises the importance of a viable and healthy breeding industry. Initiatives such as the SAMOS (SA Mares Ownership Scheme) and Southern Cross Racing Series are continually being reviewed to ensure that they contribute strongly to our industry. In addition to SAMOS and Southern Cross, HRSA see the Yearling Sale as an important element of the breeding industry. Over the past 3 years HRSA has increased its involvement with the sale, providing administrative and promotional support leading up to the event, as well as on the day and post-sale. In addition, the HRSA Board recently announced that any yearling sold at the sale which has not been entered for the Southern Cross prior to the sale, can be made eligible for the Southern Cross at a discounted price of $275 (normally $660), subject to the relevant eligibility criteria. I would like to wish all of the breeders, vendors and buyers the best of luck at the 2017 Yearling Sales. SA BOTRA Presidents message SA BOTRA is pleased to present the third edition of the SA BOTRA Yearling Sale. Past winners sold through our sale include; Arm A Princess, Wroxton Steel, Ramsays Hope and Take Mepicturemister.

Covering North America’s top stakes action • Harness Eye, Daily Harness Program & TrackMaster PPs • Digital Harness Eye at a low price • Free Harness Eye Past Performances Visit DRF.com/harness CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 The absence of live racing has not limited the training progress of Toscano’s top-rated 3-year-old trotting filly Senorita Rita. “I would say she’s the least impacted by this,” said Toscano of last year’s Goldsmith Maid champion. “We had planned to get her ready for August.” On the other side of the fence are returning 3-year-olds that showed promise last year but didn’t get the experience necessary for Toscano and ownership to pursue extensive staking. For those youngsters, a few races in March and early April would be key towards making critical April 15 stakes payments with at least some knowledge. “We had six or seven that were ready to qualify and we were hoping to get one or two races into them just to see where they were going,” said Toscano. “We just had to make staking decisions on those horses blindly.” Perhaps going forward those same horses will be found in diffi- cult positions of playing catch-up when races actually begin and those with far more experience have a distinct advantage.
