Congratulations, Vince, Donna, Greg and Shelly for the great win by Magistrate (FB Son) in the Ipswich Auction 431m Final. The entire litter seem to have ability, but this boy is a flyer.

Fernando bale has 4 in the Dubbo 600m final and one in the Perth cup. Considering he's 10yo and he has a fair few very viable sons at stud now he's still holding his own

Haras Opal broke Ipswich 630m track record A daughter of GOAT
I wonder how the lack of breeding since the LB fiasco has helped this dog. Services are still at 54 per quarter so FB would probably still be booked solid while other sires dropped off.
Not taking anything away from him, he's one of the greats, but his figures might be a bit inflated compared with previous greats.

Graeme, I dont believe much wouldve changed, as hes just that good. Barcia was around for the better part of that period so its not as if Fernando had it all his own way. Hes earned his stripes, no question at all.

litters born from 1/7/16
10,200
Barcia Bale 892 litters - 8.75%
Fernando Bale 1108 litters - 10.86%
Over the last 5 years 19.61% of all pups born are by these 2 sires

And of recent times their sons probably make up another 20-30% of matings
