Tuesday, 27 June 2006: Fred Peisah's Lomar Park Stud at Camden has had
a joyful June as far as input into racing results is concerned.
Lomar Park contributed to the breeding of Takeover Target, the rags to
riches Australian sprinter while there have been many good
performances from the progeny of the stud's resident Danehill sire
Arena.
Lomar Park gets into the Takeover Target picture as the breeding
ground of his dam Shady Stream, a daughter of one of the stud's former
successful sire Archregent.
Her dam Merry Shade, a Spectacular Spy stakes winner, was bred by the
late Dan Buffier of the Wingarra Stud in the Bylong Valley from
Parasol, a Sostenuto mare who did not win but who produced nine
winners.
She was owned for a time by Tiger Holland, the trainer and part owner
with Betty Lane of Athelnoth, a good class sprinter who was successful
at Randwick on Saturday.
Lomar Park also had an input into the breeding of new sprint star
Natural Destiny, the winner of Saturday's G3 W.J. Healy Stakes at
Eagle Farm.
Like Takeover Target, he is from a mare by Archregent.
Another success was the second successive Sydney win by the
three-year-old Impatient Star, a Lomar Park bred gelding by resident
Danehill sire Arena.
Impatient Star has now won four Sydney races and could be an Epsom
Handicap hope in the spring.
His Randwick victory gave Arena a second Sydney winner in a week as
his two-year-old daughter Rena's Lady broke through at Warwick Farm.
Impatient Star and Rena's Lady contributed to a treble of Arena
metropolitan winners in less than a fortnight as another of his
three-year-olds, the Woodlands Stud bred and raced filly Creole won at
Doomben on June 14.
She is from a Yeats mare bred by Woodlands but disposed of after she
produced the foal who was to become Creole.
Arena has now had 40 winners of 60 races of $1.7million for 2005-06
with the top performer being the Lomar Park bred G1 winner Regal
Cheer.
Also a daughter of an Archregent mare, Regal Cheer has won seven
races, including the G1 Coolmore Classic and G1 Surround Stakes.
A brilliant middle distance performer whose six wins included the
Victoria Derby, Canterbury Guineas, Hobartville Stakes, Hill Stakes
and Gloaming Stakes, Arena is a Danehill sire whose progeny should
keep doing well as five and six-year-olds and who can be expected to
supply good performers at all distances.
