This quality mare ($180,000 at Easter Sales) is out of RUBITOFF - a full sister to RUBITANO, and winner of arguably Australia’s greatest sprint race the G1 NEWMARKET HANDICAP and the G1 SALLINGER STAKES.
Much Better is a full sister to stakes placed Sweet Ransom who herself has produced Collect – a G3 placed colt by FASTNET ROCK. MUCH BETTER is now in foal to THEROCK - a magnificent looking son of FASTNET ROCK.
THEROCK’S racing career ended prematurely after suffering a muscular injury after two consecutive 3 yo wins in Sydney (defeating subsequent Group 1 & Group 2 winners). Following these wins he was ruling favourite for the G1 NEW ZEALAND GUINEAS. THEROCK was described by trainer Gerald Ryan as one of his three year old stars alongside MELITO and ROTHESAY. THEROCK is now doing a great job at stud in Victoria, leaving impressive, athletic foals.
Much Better has produced a very nice weanling colt by TICKETS.
