This
weekends racing in Queensland proved a good one for the stallion Frisco View
(USA) (Chestnut Horse 1993 Mt Livermore-Heaven’s Nook) who stands at Clearvale
Stud at Bylong in New South Wales.
The wins by San Franfrisco (out of Spectacular Grey by Spectacular Spy) on debut
at the Gold Coast on Saturday and by Hoot’s View (out of She’s A Hoot by
Virginia Privateer) at the Sunshine Coast yesterday took the first season record
for Frisco View to three winners and a placegetter from just six starters so far
this season.
Hoot’s View had also won previously in Toowoomba while the stallion’s other
winner is Silk And Money (out of Seen Before by Scenic) who won at Kembla and
has also been placed third at Goulburn from three starts to date.
Frisco On Wings (out of Reel Wings by Royal Reel) has been placed at all three
starts to date having run two seconds at Coff’s Harbour and a third at
Ballina.
Frisco View was certainly no slouch on the track himself having won nine races
from six to eight furlongs along with two placings from 19 race starts in
America.
His best win was in the Grade 3 Breeders Cup Sprint Championship over seven
furlongs at Gulfstream Park, a race which he also ran a third in.
Frisco View won in each of four season’s racing from a two year old when he
won his Maiden Stakes at Ellis Park by 8lengths through to his five year old
season.
Frisco View’s dam Heaven’s Nook (by Great Above) won three races from 6
furlongs through to 1 ¼ miles including the Listed Gowran Park Trial Handicap
as well as black type placings with a second in the Listed Phoenix Park 1000
Guineas Trial and thirds in the Group 3 Curragh Tetrach Stakes and the Listed
Phoenix Park Hermitage Farm Stakes.
All five of the mares progeny to race have been winners.
Frisco View stands at Clearvale Stud for a fee of $3,300 including G.S.T.
