Description
RIVERKY (pronounced River – Ky) is a lightly raced 4yo gelding by DOMESDAY. He has only had 8 career starts over one racing preparation (inclusive of a 3 week freshen up). A racing preparation that can best be forgotten. He was a physically and mentally immature 3yo and had to endure 4 different trainers in his 8 starts due to unforeseen circumstances of trainers being disqualified. Quite simply, he was not ready to cope with it all.
He has since been given a year in the paddock and has now grown into his legs and filled out his frame and matured mentally. He is now ready to properly start his racing career.
His sire DOMESDAY is highly underrated given he has sired 18 stakes winners of 38 stakes races, including 5 Group 1 winners.
His dam, RIVER LENA, was an ex-Darley mare, imported to Australia with an outstanding pedigree, being a half-sister to Group 3 winner and multiple Group 1 placed, PICTAVIA and out of INSIJAAM (by SECRETARIAT) whom was multiple stakes winner in France and herself a half-sister to three stakes winners, including USA champion turf filly, HATOOF. Recent Irish Derby winner, TRADING LEATHER, is also from this family. RIVER LENA’s yearlings sold for $110,000, $80,000, $55,000, etc. She was also the kindest mare you could ever wish to meet.
Regrettably RIVER LENA has now passed away. As commercial breeders we have sold all her other progeny, and as RIVERKY is now gelded he no longer has a place in our breeding operation and is therefore being offered for unreserved sale.
Like many of DOMESDAY’s best horses, RIVERKY is most likely to be at his best when he gets the opportunity to get out to 2000m and beyond (he is yet to race beyond 1600m). Through RIVER LENA he shares similar dam side bloodlines with DOMESDAY’s best middle distance/staying horses. These shared bloodlines include the ever present NORTHERN DANCER and, more interestingly, some less common bloodlines that reoccur in:
ROYAL SYMPHONY and RIVERKY: both have PRINCE JOHN and PRINCE CHEVALIER on the dam side.
RUTHVEN and RIVERKY: both have PRINCE JOHN (through RIVERMAN) on the dam side.
DOMESKY and RIVERKY: both have PRINCEQUILLO (sire of PRINCE JOHN), PRINCE CHEVALIER and COURT MARTIAL on the dam side.
EXTRA BRUT and RIVERKY: both have COURT MARTIAL and BLUSHING GROOM on the dam side.
RIVERKY stands approximately 16.1hh.
Inspections and/or Vet checks welcome – by appointment.
