There has been a changing of the guard in Pencarrow’s racing team this autumn, with Group One performer Pearl Of Alsace (NZ) (Tavistock) retiring to stud while exciting new talent Tomodachi (NZ) (Tarzino) announced her arrival on the big stage.

Tomodachi claimed the first black-type win of her career with a brilliant performance in Saturday’s $100,000 Group Three Rotorua ITM Stakes (1400m) at Arawa Park. The super-talented Pencarrow homebred has now had nine starts for six wins, two placings and $179,016 in stakes.

Tomodachi is out of Quintessentially (NZ) (High Chaparral), who is a daughter of the Group One-placed Uberalles (NZ) (Giant’s Causeway) and a granddaughter of the champion Ethereal (NZ) (Rhythm).

Race sponsor Kevin Myers earned his money back at Waverley on Monday when Pencarrow’s Sunset Boulevard (NZ) (Eminent) won the $17,000 Kevin Myers Racing (2100m).

Myers took over the training of Sunset Boulevard earlier this year, and Monday’s Rating 75 race was the four-year-old gelding’s third win from five starts out of the Wanganui stable.

The dam of Sunset Boulevard is North of Sunset (NZ) (Red Ransom), who is a half-sister to the stakes winner and Group One-placed Pencarrow mare Wildflower (NZ) (Keeper).

Group One-winning colt Private Life (Written Tycoon), who is part-owned by Pencarrow principal Sir Peter Vela, will join the star-studded stallion roster at Coolmore later this year with an introductory service fee of A$19,250.

Bought for A$650,000 as a yearling, Private Life has earned more than A$2m on the racetrack with three wins headed by the Group One Caulfield Guineas (1600m) in October. In that renowned stallion-making classic, he defeated the subsequent Group One Australian Guineas (1600m) winner Feroce (NZ) (Super Seth), the multiple Group One winner Broadsiding (Too Darn Hot) and the multiple Group winner Evaporate (NZ) (Per Incanto).
