Not
many stakes-winners salute at odds of $151, but if you had seen the pedigree of
this one you may well have got on.
A Group III winning son of champion sire Danehill (USA), Rangal Park based
Danerich passed a milestone when posting his first stakes-winner after three
year-old colt Heaven's Riches took out the Group III SAJC Chairman's Stakes at
Morphettville last Saturday.
Prepared by Robbie Laing, Heaven's Riches was sent to the post a rank outsider,
but he belied his $151 starting price when charging home to win the 2000 metre
staying test by a long neck.
Initially tried as a sprinter, Heaven's Riches failed to fire a shot, but has
seems to have found his forte now that he's racing over a distance.
Bred by Rangal Park Stud, Heaven's Riches was passed in shy of his modest
$15,000 reserve at the 2010 Magic Millions Yearling Sale in Adelaide and has
now won two of 12 starts and just shy of $100,000 in prizemoney.
The staying prowess being shown by Heaven's Riches should come as no surprise
as he is from the stoutly bred Nassipour (USA) mare Nassi Angel (NZ), a full
sister to Group I SAJC Derby winner Shiva's Revenge, who also finished second
to stablemate Let's Elope in the Group I VRC Melbourne Cup.
His grand-mother How About Now, is a half-sister to Group I AJC Oaks winner
Just Now and the family is littered with Black Type performers of all shapes
and sizes, so Heaven's Riches is only doing what he was bred to.
Nassi Angel also has a yearling colt by Danerich and a weanling filly by the
same sire.
With his oldest progeny just three year-olds, Danerich (pictured) is the sire of 22
winners from 51 runners including stakes-placed horses Didntcostalot, Flying
Skipper and Voices of Spring.
In the fickle bloodstock world, where young stallions are initially supported
and then dumped at a dizzying rate, Danerich has struggled for support in
recent years.
He covered just 29 mares last spring for Rangal Park and was listed as fee on
application.
