Welcome to Phoenician Racing Division, owned and operated by
Elaine. Here, all Thoroughbred racing stock owned and bred by Phoenician
are stabled. Retired studs and those destined for a future in a sport
career are shipped down to the sporthorse division after retiring from
the track, while mares selected for the breeding program remain on site.
However, you can still view our line of successful stallions used to produce
quality racehorses through selecting the "Breeding" link above. The Racing
division is home to Phoenician's talented flat racers and steeplechasers,
all in the prime of their racing careers. It is also home to the Riata
Steeplechasing Club, the governing body of steeplechasing in Riata.
Once a sub-plot situated slightly apart from the main stables, the racing
division was moved down to Kumeu in order to bring the racers closer to
the central racing hubub of New Zealand. It was also to place emphasis
on the fact that the racing division would no longer take a back seat
to the sporthorse division. We are looking to expand and make the Phoenician
racers as much of a household name as their sporthorse peers are, and
we are well on the way to making that dream a reality.
