Plenty Of Spirit For Adrenaline

A COLT WITH PROVEN SPEED ON BOTH SIDES OF THE FAMILY

Are you looking for a colt with genuine upside, proven Group level genetics and, a family that simply produces winners, this Spirit Of Boom × Notonyourlife colt ticks every box.

THE SIRE: SPIRIT OF BOOM — QUEENSLAND’S MOST TRUSTED SOURCE OF SPEED

Few stallions in the country offer the consistency, toughness and strike rate of Spirit Of Boom — the dual Gr.1 winner behind Adrenaline stars Prince Of Boom, Estrondo, and rising talent Caspernova.
He is one of Australia’s most reliable stallions:
• 523 winners of 1,441 races
• $67.8 million in progeny earnings
• 72.8% winners to runners
• 29 stakes winners, 18 stakes placed, 128 metro winners
More than a third of his winners are city class. When his yearlings are selected by people who know him as well as Adrenaline does, the results speak for themselves.

Spirit Of Boom was the ultimate professional — a stakes winner at two, a Gr.1 winner at seven, and elite across five seasons. Durability, speed, heart: he passes it on.

THE DAM: NOTONYOURLIFE — A TOUGH, TALENTED, STAKES CLASS MARE
Notonyourlife was exactly the type of mare breeders dream of: fast, sound, competitive and consistent.
Her race record says it all:
• 6 wins, 12 placings, $359,000+
• 5 metro wins, including the Listed Tatt’s Classic
• Desperately unlucky not to add another stakes win in the Listed Nudgee Stakes
She was sharp enough to perform at two and tough enough to keep winning as an older mare — the perfect broodmare profile.
And her family is pure gold:
• First foal Hoffman (by Spirit Of Boom) already a dual winner
• Dam Defiant: 8 winners from 8 runners
• Granddam Ruffles (Gr.1 Newmarket): 8 winners from 8 runners
• Next dam Paris Miss: 9 winners, including Ateates (4× Group winner)
This is also the family of Elite Street, True Glo, Phobetor, Boss Lane, Osca Warrior and Campaign Warrior — horses who collectively won 57 races.
This is a female line that wins and keeps winning.

FOR THE PEDIGREE BUFFS: A PROVEN NICK THAT JUST WORKS

This colt is bred on one of Spirit Of Boom’s most successful patterns.
• 8 of 9 Spirit Of Boom runners out of Sebring mares are winners
• 17 of 20 out of More Than Ready mares are winners
• 4 × 5 × 3 Danehill duplication — the same pattern behind Prince Of Boom and Jonker
• 71.7% winners when Spirit Of Boom is crossed with Showdown blood (found in Sequalo and Zeditave)
This is a pedigree built on speed, soundness, and proven compatibility.
WHY THIS COLT?
Because he represents everything buyers want in a modern Australian racehorse:
• A sire who upgrades his mares
• A dam who performed at stakes level and comes from a faultless producing family
• A genetic cross with a proven strike rate
• A page full of winners, toughness and black type performers
This is a colt bred to run early, run often, and run well.

When it comes to training racehorses horses in Brisbane you arguably won’t find more solid ground than placing your thoroughbred under the care of Rob Heathcote.

Rob has trained horses for more than-25 years, building a treasure chest of experience to draw on and a pile of trophies to go with it.

Rob spent much of his early working life running tours around landmarks in Europe where he must have fine-tuned the craft of ensuring people are shown good time. For years' Adrenaline Thoroughbred Syndications have been impressed watching Rob before races and after a win, always behind a camera ensuring his ownership group have snap of the big day.

Through the mid 90’s Rob managed a team of horses raced by his brother in leading stables through Australia and New Zealand. In 1997 he took the plunge and opened his own training stable. We remember articles in the media at the time describing his steep learning curve and telling how he was studying everything he could find on getting the best from horse through fitness, feed and soundness.

These days he could probably write the book! In his first year with limited opportunities he finished sixth on the premiership. His big gamble and good horsemanship has been paying off ever since. He’s won the Brisbane metropolitan trainers premiership six times, trained more than 1100 winners and named Queensland trainer of the year on several occasions.

Rob has prepared top line horses such as Solzhenitsyn and Woorim to win at Group 1 level but is probably best known as the trainer of seven time Group 1 winner and the peoples champion, Buffering. Adrenaline Thoroughbreds are impressed with Rob’s ability to develop what are often less fashionable thoroughbreds from the lower end of the market to race against, and beat the best.   He also has an uncanny knack of bringing horses back to perform at their best, preparation after preparation, racing at a high level, as well as enjoying long careers.

The Directors of Adrenaline are thrilled to have Rob join their team of Trainers, tapping into his skills to develop your thoroughbred to be the best athlete it can.
