"TRIASSIC, the veteran dam of champion galloper So You Think, has been confirmed in foal to New Zealand-based sire Reliable Man.
The positive test is a wonderful result for Triassic's owner Cecile Smith, Westbury Stud and the Matamata vet practice that played a significant role in the 24-year-old mare's breeding longevity.
"She's come back from Matamata vets absolutely glowing, beautifully dappled and shiny. She looks ten years younger," Smith said.
Triassic got in foal to Reliable Man without a delay. She had a gender test on day 63 that revealed she is carrying a filly.
Triassic was unable to have a foal last season with her most recent birth being a 2012 colt by Medaglia D'Oro.
Reliable Man, a Westbury Stud shuttle stallion, had his first New Zealand progeny born last spring.
"I'll keep this one for myself and it will become the foundation of a continuing breeding line," Smith said."
