Snitzel and Charge Forward close out super season
Two of the young guns on the Arrowfield roster, Snitzel (by Redoute’s Choice) and Charge Forward (by Red Ransom), closed out their super 2009-10 seasons with impressive final winners today in Sydney and Brisbane.
At Rosehill, Snitzel’s two-year-old son One More Grand (ex Lambada Lady by Seattle Slew) took out The Rosebud Inglis Bonus, adding $100,000, plus a BOBS Bonus of $20,000, to the standard $42,000 prizemoney for trainer Neville Layt and his ownership partners, Mrs B.G. Layt, Mr G.R. & Mrs V.C. Williams and Mr A.J. Laing (Snr).
Arrowfield-bred One More Grand was sold by Bellerive Stud at the 2009 Scone Yearling Sale for $35,000, and has now earned more than $240,000 from his three wins and one placing at two.
Snitzel ends the 2009-10 season in second position on the Australian 1st Season Sires’ list, with $1.2 million prizemoney and 10 winners, including G2 Chance Bye.
At Doomben three-year-old Carlton Forward (ex Carlton Ace by Bianconi), a $65,000 Magic Million Premier Sale purchase who was stakes-placed at two, took his prizemoney beyond $130,000 for owner Mr T. Khoury.
Charge Forward ends the season in eighth position on the Australian 2nd Season Sires’ list with more than $1.4 million from 23 winners, including Group winners Headway, Solar Charged, Shrapnel and Response.
