Is JEREMES JET one stallion we let get away too soon?
Already this season he has sired 68 winners in the southern hemisphere and 109 lifetime winners from just 169 to make it to the track, the millionaire son of Western Hanover has certain left a mark down under.
Voted 2-year-old Champion of his year in both the U.S. and Canada.
Jeremes Jet was an example of a sire with good credentials and now some very solid performance statistics, who could not get a foothold as a commercial shuttling sire.
Jereme’s Jet stood for 4 seasons at Alabar’s New Zealand base for a $6,000 service fee. He is a lovely strong looking individual, with a big shoulder and rear end – bookends – on a 15.2hh body, so he is compact but looked the type of sire that could produce speedy earlier types.
While he might not have been a prolific 2yo sire is progeny continue to go from strength to strength.
Shes A Runa the NSW Oaks winners heads his band of $100K plus winners with prize money totalling $277,588 joining her with over $254983 interesting his two highest earners are fillies.
Yaya’s Hot Spot is also closing in on the $200k mark, while Tasmanian star 4 year old Jerrys Jet who returned to racing at Devonport on Sunday night s about to join the $100k band of Jerems Jet, a band that has 11 playing in it a present.
Jerrys Jet has won 14 of his 16 starts and already claimed the Tasmanian versions of sires stakes as a 2 and 3 year old and looks set to make it a treble when he lines up in the Raider Stakes next month.
South Australian pacer HezThe One claimed SA Southern Cross as a 2 and 3 year old he has already amassed over the $130,000 in prize money.
The breeding industry can be gold mine for some stallions and a land mine for other Jeremes Jet certainly found it a land mine.
