Progeny

Wai Eyre Farm and Macca Lodge are excited to have jointly secured the services for US Captain, a superbly bred son of Captaintreacherous to stand for the first time in New Zealand for the 2025-26 season.

U S Captain paced 16 sub-1:50 miles, recorded 52 top three finishes with 22 wins, took a mark of 1:49, and had one place time of 1:48.1.

US Captain was purchased as a yearling for $180,000 by Tony Alagna who trained him through his two, three and four year old seasons and had this to say “US Captain was a terrific individual with an effortless gait who possessed the type of high-end speed it takes to become a successful sire in any jurisdiction – he is a horse with one of the greatest pedigrees in harness racing. He’s a can’t miss!”

With World Champions on both side of his pedigree, US Captain has one of the best pedigrees you will find – being by World Champion Sire Captaintreacherous and out of a World Champion race mare American Jewel (American Ideal).

Dam American Jewel, bred by industry powerhouse Brittany Farms, became a world champion at both 2 and 3, she was a multiple Group winner, including 4 Group 1 races, and amassed $1,840,565 in stake earnings while setting or equalling no less than four world records.

She was the best mare sired by American Ideal who has left progeny of over $250 Million in earnings. American Jewel’s pedigree extends back to Hall of Fame pacing filly Three Diamonds who is one of the greatest producers of all time.

Three Diamonds is the dam of world champion and successful sire Life Sign, multiple stakes winner Threefold, and is the granddam of champion racehorse and leading sire American Ideal.

This family is full of athleticism and precocious early running blood.

US Captain has spent two seasons in the breeding barn in North America, with excellent fertility. His eldest progeny are foals with reports that they are really, nice types and breeders are delighted with them.

Both studs are extremely excited about introducing a 100% New Zealand owned stallion who boosts modern, world class bloodlines, offering breeders an affordable choice for an impeccably bred stallion who will cross well with Bettor’s Delight mares.
