Poised For Success
Vincent’s ascent towards stallion stardom is accelerating at remarkable speed, with the blueblooded son of Art Major and Champion 3YO Filly Kept For Pleasure making waves across Australasia.

Vincent

A dream horse with a dream resume for a stallion – type, pedigree and performance over all distances.

Vincent is a four time Group 1 winner who set records from 1 mile to 2700 metres. All told, he recorded 16 wins from 19 starts with four Group 1 victories.

Undoubtedly, Vincent was the dream horse. He had it all. Co-trainer, Mark Purdon is full of admiration for the horse that was harness racing’s brightest rising star:

“He was a great young horse, the best of his year as a three-year-old. He came back great as a four-year-old and I thought he would eventually take Lazarus’ place and go on to be the best horse in Australasia.”

He has shown the ability to sire multiple Group 1 winning juveniles early in his career.

  • Four time Group 1 winner
  • Retired the fastest ever 3yo in Australasia
  • A truly outstanding type – he sold for $130,000 as a yearling
  • Possesses a pedigree that all other stallion’s would be envious of – his first two dams are Group 1 winners
  • Already the sire of 13 stakes winners including the Group 1 winners Shezsofast and Reinette

Look for Vincent to cross well with mares by Cam Fella line, No Nukes line and Direct Scooter line stallions.

Cam Fella line stallions include Bettors Delight, Fake Left, Armbro Operative, Presidential Ball, Four Starzzz Shark, Roll With Joe, Precious Bunny, Pacific Fella, Blissfull Hall, Betterthancheddar, Riverboat King, etc.
We have seen the stakes winners Staroftheshow, Vinke B and Vessem come out of Bettor’s Delight mares.

No Nukes line stallions include American Ideal, Rock N Roll Heaven, Rocknroll Hanover, Village Jasper, Live Or Die, Western Terror, Jeremes Jet, Caprock, Badlands Hanover, etc.
Already this Vincent/No Nukes cross has paid dividends through Sherlock (American Ideal mare), Seve (Red River Hanover mare), Our Vinnie (Rocknroll Hanover mare), etc

Direct Scooter line stallions include Christian Cullen, Mach Three, In The Pocket, Courage Under Fire, etc

It is also worth noting that Art Major has demonstrated a liking for the “outcross” type mares, like Falcon Seelster mares. So look for Vincent to also cross with these type of mares.

    It is also worth noting that Art Major has demonstrated a liking for the “outcross” type mares, like Falcon Seelster mares. So look for Vincent to also cross with these type of mares.

Vincent’s ascent towards stallion stardom is accelerating at remarkable speed, with the blueblooded son of Art Major and Champion 3YO Filly Kept For Pleasure making waves across Australasia.
A dream horse with a dream resume for a stallion – type, pedigree and performance over all distances.

Vincent is a four time Group 1 winner who set records from 1 mile to 2700 metres. All told, he recorded 16 wins from 19 starts with four Group 1 victories.

Undoubtedly, Vincent was the dream horse. He had it all. Co-trainer, Mark Purdon is full of admiration for the horse that was harness racing’s brightest rising star:

“He was a great young horse, the best of his year as a three-year-old. He came back great as a four-year-old and I thought he would eventually take Lazarus’ place and go on to be the best horse in Australasia.”

He has shown the ability to sire multiple Group 1 winning juveniles early in his career.

  • Four time Group 1 winner
  • Retired the fastest ever 3yo in Australasia
  • A truly outstanding type – he sold for $130,000 as a yearling
  • Possesses a pedigree that all other stallion’s would be envious of – his first two dams are Group 1 winners
  • Already the sire of 13 stakes winners including the Group 1 winners Shezsofast and Reinette

Vincent possesses a truly outstanding pedigree that will suit the majority of mares in the Southern Hemisphere.

He is sired by Art Major and out of a Safely Kept mare who is out of an Armbro Operative mare.
This means he should cross well with the same lines as his sire.

Look for Vincent to cross well with mares by Cam Fella line, No Nukes line and Direct Scooter line stallions.

Cam Fella line stallions include Bettors Delight, Fake Left, Armbro Operative, Presidential Ball, Four Starzzz Shark, Roll With Joe, Precious Bunny, Pacific Fella, Blissfull Hall, Betterthancheddar, Riverboat King, etc.
We have seen the stakes winners Staroftheshow, Vinke B and Vessem come out of Bettor’s Delight mares.

No Nukes line stallions include American Ideal, Rock N Roll Heaven, Rocknroll Hanover, Village Jasper, Live Or Die, Western Terror, Jeremes Jet, Caprock, Badlands Hanover, etc.
Already this Vincent/No Nukes cross has paid dividends through Sherlock (American Ideal mare), Seve (Red River Hanover mare), Our Vinnie (Rocknroll Hanover mare), etc

Direct Scooter line stallions include Christian Cullen, Mach Three, In The Pocket, Courage Under Fire, etc

It is also worth noting that Art Major has demonstrated a liking for the “outcross” type mares, like Falcon Seelster mares. So look for Vincent to also cross with these type of mares.
