Record season for Easy Rocking

MARCH 2009: Prolific Wattle Brae Stud stallion Easy Rocking is enjoying another highly prominent season and well on the way to posting his best ever statistics with the 2009 Queensland Winter Carnival looming.

So far in 2008/09, the Group 1 winning sprinter has been responsible for 42 individual winners and is just 18 short of the tally he chalked-up last season.

When it comes to progeny earnings, however, Easy Rocking has already exceeded last year’s figure with some five months still left to run of the current racing season.

So far this term, the offspring of the stallion has netted close on $1.7 million for their respective connections, this already representing a $200,000 increase on last season’s figures over the entire 12-month period.

Since the beginning of the calendar year, the likes of Elliotto, Vocalic, Funtantes, Rocking The Blues and Pepperwood have all won events worth $50,000 or more, the latter claiming the lion’s share of the $250,000 Magic Millions Stayers Cup prizemoney on offer.

Some of these very same individuals have major assignments ahead of them in the coming months and give every indication that their best win of the season is still to come.

Easy Rocking has seven members of his 2007 foal crop to be offered later this week at the Magic Millions 2009 QTIS 600 Yearling Sale, all of which can be found in the consignment of Wattle Brae Stud.

For any further information regarding the draft, or regarding Easy Rocking himself, please contact principal Gary Turkington on 0407 700 799 or studmaster Ian Brady on 0417 077 293.
