Ultimate Machete is a four time Group 1 winning son of Bettors Delight with a blue blood pedigree.

Bettors Delight has been a dominant stallion throughout his career and now we welcome one of his best sons in Ultimate Machete.

New Zealand and Australian racing is dominated by horses that thrive on today’s style of racing. Horses that are able to roll forward into the race and then be unrelenting in last halves run in 54 seconds or better.

Ultimate Machete, with extreme toughness and a high cruising speed, personified this never-say-die rolling style of racing.

NZ Three Year Old and Four Year Old Pacing Male of the Year
Four time Group 1 winner – three of those in either NZ or race record times
Set three New Zealand Records throughout his career
Comes from an amazing family of juvenile speed – he is a full brother to current star Ultimate Sniper and a half brother to the Group 1 winner Major Reality
His first crop of yearlings sold to $37,500 and averaged over 9 times his service fee

Ultimate Machete’s oldest progeny are three year olds in 2024. He is the sire of

Ultimate Machete and Ultimate Sniper are full brothers and despite being different types, they should cross with similar types of mares in terms of bloodlines at least.

Being a son of Bettor’s Delight, we believe that Ultimate Machete is perfectly suited to Direct Scooter line mares.

So that includes mares by such stallions as Christian Cullen, Mach Three, Courage Under Fire, Somebeachsomewhere and Captaintreacherous.

The Bettor’s Delight / Direct Scooter line cross has been one of the most successful in the Southern Hemisphere in recent years and we believe it will continue through Ultimate Machete.

Artsplace line mares should also prove a good match with Ultimate Sniper. Bettors Delight has crossed very well with these types of mares and there is no reason why it won’t be duplicated with Ultimate Machete.

Artsplace line stallions include Art Major, Sportswriter, Grinfromeartoear, etc.

While Ultimate Machete is already bred 3 x 3 to Cam Fella, we believe that he will also have success with Cam Fella line mares, with the exception of Bettor’s Delight and Armbro Operative mares.

Finally Western Ideal mares have consistently crossed well with Cam Fella line stallions. Thus we believe that they can achieve success with Ultimate Machete as well.
