Welcome to THIS ISSUE OF BBT Monthly<br />
Welcome once again to our Monthly Magazine.<br />
A bit of a frustrating month with many placings but at least they<br />
are running well! Fortunes change quickly in racing so<br />
hopefully we can see a nice run of winners saluting in the red,<br />
blue and white!<br />
We did enjoy success with Bold Julius who we sent to<br />
Queensland for easier pickings and our plan bore fruit straight<br />
away. Enjoying a change of scenery with new trainer, Jack<br />
Bruce, Bold Julius scored an emphatic victory at his first start<br />
for the new stable - a good confidence kill which will pave the<br />
way for bigger and better things for the Brazen Beau 3yo.<br />
A horse to follow is European import Fernao. Prepared by<br />
Annabel Neasham, this son of Frankel is acclimatising well and<br />
has performed well with 2 placings. The further he gets the<br />
better he will be for it.<br />
We have shares in a magnificent daughter of Merchant Navy<br />
available. Offered for the first time, you won’t believe the value!<br />
She’s trained by Merchant Navy’s trainer, Ciaron Maher so<br />
don’t miss your chance to get involved.<br />
Last issue, we launched our Know An Owner column and it<br />
proved popular so we hope you enjoy this month’s column.<br />
Have a fantastic month!<br />

A REPORT FROM OUR RACING MANAGER.<br />
David Mourad, our Racing Manager gives us a comprehensive<br />
summary of the Blueblood runners which have competed<br />
recently. Now with race video highlights.<br />
ENJOY DAVID‘S MONTHLY VIDEO WRAP<br />
VIDEO WRAP.
VALUE OPPORTUNITY!<br />
Just $750 per 2.5% share in a<br />
magnificent filly to be trained by<br />
Australia's No.1 CIARON<br />
MAHER.<br />
Merchant Navy was a brilliant racehorse<br />
who scored Group One victories in both<br />
Hemispheres. Many will remember the<br />
Ciaron Maher trained galloper's exciting<br />
victory in the Gr1 Coolmore Stks then his<br />
thrilling win in the Gr1 Diamond Jubilee<br />
at Royal Ascot.<br />
As a stallion he holds his own now too.<br />
He's currently sitting 3rd (by winners)<br />
only behind Hellbent and Russian<br />
Revolution, on the the 3rd Season Sires<br />
Table with a better winner to runner<br />
strike rate than Hellbent. He has<br />
produced 3 Stakeswinners to date incl.<br />
Royal Merchant at Group One level.<br />
This classy filly is out of a Zabeel mare and it's no secret how succesful the Fastnet Rock / Zabeel<br />
cross has become. The combination of speed and stamina makes her a Gr.1 Thousand Guineas type<br />
of proposition.<br />
We're thrilled to be able to offer her for that price and look forward to getting some great owners<br />
involved but like the horses we advertise at this price, they tend to get snapped up very quickly so...<br />
