GREAT VALUE FOR BREEDERS!

French-bred sire USED TO ME might just be the most underrated and best-value trotting stallion available to Australian breeders.


He has produced three group 1 winners from limited opportunities and sits in the Australian top 12 for individual winners and wins in Australia this season.


USED TO ME stood his first season at Haras des Trotteurs in 2014 after finishing his racing career with two wins from two starts on Australian soil, including the Group 3 Chris Howe Trotters Cup at Bendigo.


With limited numbers on the ground, the son of Nuage de Laithe has produced 37 winners from 52 starters with his Group 1 winners being Dont Care, Used To Be A Maid and Gardena Ronda.


His progeny averages $30,377 in earnings per starter.

 

He also has two winners from four starters in New Zealand including Taylad To Use, who has won two from two starts this season, and a career best of 1:56.7. 


USED TO ME is having a stand-out run this season with 18 winners from 32 starters.


4yo gelding Avant Guard (Used To Me-Eringa Belle) and lightly raced 2yo Rey Bailando (used To Me-Reina Danzanta) have been an eye-catchers.


Avant Guard has won seven times to move through the classes, his latest win being in the Mimosa Homes Trot at Melton on Saturday, November 2.


He lines up in the Haras Des Trotteurs Delvin Dancer 4yo Classic at Melton on Saturday, November 9.


Rey Bailando (used To Me-Reina Danzanta) could not have been more impressive than when he brought up his second win at his third start in a Breeders Crown heat at Bendigo on Wednesday, November 6.


“He is a really nice horse,” reinsman Zac Phillips said after the win on Rey Bailando.

“The way he did it, he wasn’t out of second gear with the plugs still in. So the future is pretty bright for him.


“Used To Me has done a great job with the mares he has had" he said.


Used To Me stands at Goulburn Valley Equine for Haras des Trotteurs for $1,750 + GST for Australian Breeders. 

 

Pay by 31st March 2025 and pay a service fee of $1,500 + GST. Available to Australia via Chilled Semen. ​

 

Conditions Apply.
