Afleet (CAN) - Adarling (CAN) by Alleged

Stallion Profile

AFLEETAFFAIR defeated Champion racehorse and sire, HONOUR AND GLORY in the Santa Anita San Vicente Stakes G3. He also defeated CAVONNIER, who won the San Anita Derby G1 and ran 2nd in the Kentucky Derby G1, and he was 3rd favourite for the Kentucky Derby before his withdrawal from the race due to Travel Sickness during transportion.

He has an impeccable pedigree: his sire, AFLEET is the exceptional son of Champion Sire of Sires, MR PROSPECTOR. MR PROSPECTOR line stallions have proven to cross beautifully with our Austalian bred mares, and undoubtably, the three best sprinting horsesin Australia at this present time, WEEKEND HUSSLER, TAKEOVER TARGET, and APACHE CAT are by MR PROSPECTOR Sires.

It sounds cliché, but it is true that Afleetaffair has few runners on the ground, and from those few, he still has consistent, honest performers, and city winners.

His progeny are good types with natural athleticism and congenial natures. We believe his value as a sire has not yet reached its potential, and that he is a true asset to breeders in our region, having proved he can produce winners at city level from limited numbers on the ground in a sport that is notable for being a “numbers game”.

He is certainly worth careful consideration, as most of his progeny race in strong provincial and city class and are highly competitive there.

Recent Winners

FOUR WINS IN THREE WEEKS!! Iron Horse, Afleet Boy made it FOUR-IN-A-ROW WINS on 4th September, under the 61kg weight in the 1300m Open Handicap at Emerald.  This win comes just 6 days after he won the Open Handicap (1400m)  when he charged home  at Kepple Park on Saturday 28th August, 2010. Afleet Boy won the Class 6 (1400m) at Rockhampton on 19th August, 2010 with 58 kgs on his back, just 5 days after his Gladstone Cup win. 
14th August, 2010.  The 2010 Gladstone Cup was won by Afleet Boy ($66,810), winner of 10 races.  The Afleetaffair gelding, out of Peer On, led the quality Cup field from barrier to box,  fighting back to win by a long neck, after being taken on and headed briefly by 2nd placegetter, Secret Savings gelding, Tantat Secret ($382,990).   Afleet Boy, trained by Gary Teal, showed his class in March this year, when he broke the Class 4 and Track Records at Toowoomba.

Afleetaffair added to his metropolitan winners earlier in 2010, with Moonan Kathleen posting two consecutive city wins in January. Moonan Kathleen followed her 2nd January win at Doomben, with another win on 16th January at Eagle Farm.
She found the line strongly, covering the 1000m journey in a slick time of 56.73. Moonan Kathleen has now won 5 races from 13 starts, with a further 3 minor placings.
