COMMENTS AND PROSPECT:
ARTIE SCHILLER, the former US runner, collected 10 wins from 1200M to 1800M including G1 Breeders' Cup Mile in 2005 with Garrett Gomez on board. In 2007, he started to perform stud duties between US and Australia with 58 black type contests and G1 winners among both Southern and Northern Hemisphere. Stallion FLYING ARTIE and two-time American G1 champion BOWIES HERO are his representatives. In 2024, his fee is AUD$ 11,000.
MIGHTY COMMANDER was formerly known as VIENNA LIGHTS and trained by Lucinda Boyd in Australia with 1 win in 3 starts where he led all the way to win a 1321M 3YO maiden event with 4.75L advantage at Geelong. Same sire runners in HK ran on nicely that LUCKY WITH YOU were place-getters in two G1 contests. Most dam family members are precocious runners that contain several black type contest winners while his half-brother LIFE YOUNG EVER also joined HK ranking as an unraced. The bay gelding should be most suited from 1200M to 1600M while Happy Valley is fine.
