Fazzle Is Fine For Volksraad

Eight times NZ champion sire Volksraad played a significant role on two fronts in the G2 Auckland Thoroughbred Breeders' Stakes for fillies and mares last weekend.

The winner Fazzle, who has now won six races, claims Volksraad as her damsire while the runnerup Casabella Lane is a daughter of the eight-times champion.

Fazzle is the second foal from the multiple Group placed Volksraad racemare Eftee One and is raced by Faye Torrance who also bred her.

Faye raced Eftee One to win three races and place in the G2 ARC Eight Carat Classic, G2 ARC Royal Stakes, G3 Hawke's Bay Guineas and Listed ARC Super Bonus Classique.

As well Eftee One finished fourth in the G1 ARC Ellerslie Sires' Produce Stakes.

Second place getter Casabella Lane, who is in foal to multiple G1 winner Rip Van Winkle, added a valuable Group placing to her resume which also includes success in the G2 BOP RC Japan New Zealand International Trophy.

Fazzle is the latest stakes winner from a mare by Volksraad who is now damsire of 18 stakes winners including Hong Kong's Champion Miler Beauty Flash and last season's G1 SAJC Schweppes Oaks-winning filly Lights Of Heaven.
