European stayer Al Riffa will attempt to give Irish trainer Joseph O’Brien a third win in the Melbourne Cup having been purchased by Australian Bloodstock. But Al Riffa will not remain in Australia post the Melbourne Cup and will chase lucrative prize money targets on the world stage. Al Riffa has been purchased by Australian Bloodstock with the express view of winning this year’s Melbourne Cup after which he will travel to Hong Kong for the International meeting in December and to the Dubai World Cup meeting in March. Jamie Lovett of Australian Bloodstock said Al Riffa would remain in the care of O’Brien who has previously won the Melbourne Cup with Rekindling in 2017 and Twilight Payment in 2020. Lovett said Al Riffa would run in the Irish St Leger at the Curragh on September 14 and form part of the second shipment of horses into Melbourne for the Spring Carnival . Al Riffa attracted the attention of Australian Bloodstock after his victory in the Group 2 Curragh Cup on July 19. “He’s the obvious horse, for the want of a better term,” Lovett told SEN. “We weren’t the only ones that would have identified him and like a lot of these horses, it’s a process. “He’s been a horse with a good profile and after his last win, his first time over a mile-and-a-half, he had a flashing light, and the two miles should be no problem for him. “Talking to Joseph O’Brien, he will have one more run in the traditional path in the Irish St Leger on the weekend of September 14 and with the Ballydoyle arrangement he can quarantine in Ireland.” Lovett said the new ownership group of Al Riffa is worldwide, adding they not only wanted a horse to run in the Melbourne Cup, but to win the race. “The majority of the horse is actually owned by some expats in Europe and Dubai,” Lovett said. “It’s good knowing you can go in boots and all knowing you have that support, and some Australian-based owners that have come into the horse as well.  “From our point of view, it gives the owners the opportunity to travel abroad with him. There is the opportunity to go onto Hong Kong and then hopefully onto the Dubai World Cup meeting. “We’ll make arrangements for him to stay in Melbourne post the Melbourne Cup Carnival and then make his way up to Hong Kong in December.”

Melbourne Cup (G1)-winning syndicators Australian Bloodstock have purchased dual group 1 winner Al Riffa . The talented son of Wootton Bassett , who dominantly scored a five-length romp in the Curragh Cup (G2) July 19, will remain in training in Ireland with Joseph O'Brien and be aimed at the Melbourne Cup, a race the trainer has won twice before with Twilight Payment in 2020 and Rekindling in 2017. While Australian Bloodstock director Jamie Lovett stressed the group 1 on the first Tuesday in November is the main target for the 5-year-old, the horse could also venture on an international campaign, which could include both Dubai and Hong Kong. "We wanted a horse that could come down and not just be competitive, but be good enough to win a Melbourne Cup," Lovett told ANZ News. "So the fact that (his last start win) was his first time beyond a mile and a half at the Curragh last start, so he has clearly ticked that box, he couldn't have been more impressive. He's staying with Joseph and will likely head to Hong Kong and hopefully on to World Cup night in Dubai. That was a big tick for our owners because that was the brief—to find us a horse that we could travel abroad with." Lovett confirmed Al Riffa—whose two group 1 wins have come in the 2022 National Stakes (G1) as a 2-year-old and the 2024 Grosser Preis von Berlin (G1)—will be given one final European run before his journey south for the Cup Nov. 4. "It's my understanding talking to Joseph, he'll run in the Irish St Leger mid-September, and that'll be his last run and then he'll quarantine at Ballydoyle before coming down into Victoria." Australian Bloodstock has a proven track record with Northern Hemisphere imports, highlighted by their 2022 Melbourne Cup triumph with French-bred Gold Trip , while they tasted success in the Flemington showpiece for the first time in 2014 with Protectionist, another bred in Europe. This year, they will also be represented in the race by last year's favorite Vauban , who they purchased last year, and Lovett believes Al Riffa fits their criteria. "There's obviously plenty of filters, and historically buying horses at the top of the weights for a big handicap can be flawed. But I think Gold Trip taught me that class carries you a long way and this horse is obviously a very, very good horse. "He is a group 1 winner in Germany, but more importantly, he has form behind Rebel's Romance. In my mind, I don't think we've found the ceiling with this horse. I think Joseph made a similar comment that he's still a horse on the up; he's not heavily taxed. "He's only had 14 starts, and I just feel he was the right horse for the brief that we had to go and purchase. There's a few local owners coming into the horse, but the majority of the horse was purchased by European clients and some clients in Dubai." Al Riffa is the third foal out of the unraced Galileo mare Love On My Mind, herself a sister to group 3 winner and 2016 Ascot Gold Cup (G1) second Mizzou.

The team's passion for horses is infectious, and their dedication to ensuring a positive experience for all owners is evident. Being part of "Team AB" has been full of exciting moments.

This transparency in operations builds trust and makes the journey of horse ownership even more enjoyable.


Moreover, the networking opportunities that come with being a part of the Australian Bloodstock community are invaluable, especially for business owners like myself. It's a diverse group, united by a love for horses, offering great chances for professional and personal connections.


Overall, my experience with Australian Bloodstock has been incredible, combining the thrill of horse ownership with camaraderie and networking opportunities.

“Winning a black type race overseas (with Delectation) is something I could never have imagined, and I have the greatest admiration and respect for the Australian Bloodstock guys. They are amazing how successful they have been at picking a horse with talent overseas, and bringing them to Australia and winning races. Their strike rate is so good. Big Duke is a prime example. He had won one race in England (at Wetherby) when Australian Bloodstock bought him, and he has since won the Launceston Cup and Manion Cup and Chairman’s Handicap in Sydney for us”


CLAUDE RENSHAW

An Australian Bloodstock Racehorse Owner

As one of the owners of 2014 Melbourne Cup winner Protectionist, the Mendooran (NSW) farmer understandably rated the German stayer’s runaway victory, with English jockey Ryan Moore aboard, as his greatest thrill in racing.


“It’s been a wonderful association and, of course, still is with Australian Bloodstock.

There’s no way I could ever have envisaged getting the opportunity to win races all over the world in countries such as Germany, France, Singapore and New Zealand”

  • How are my stakes winnings paid?

    2.5% shareholders are paid out from Australian Bloodstock as you are part of our syndicate. We pay out twice per month.

  • Will I be able to visit my horse?

    Yes, you just need to contact us and book a time. Generally Sundays are not available.

  • How long until my horse races?

    Every horse is different, some will be 2yo runners and other later, both Australian Bloodstock and your trainer will keep you updated regularly on the progress and likely start of your horse. It’s worth remembering there is approx. 22,000 horses born each year in Australia and only around 2000 of them run as 2yr olds. All our stock are fully educated during this period but we don’t rush our horses, if they show they are ready to race then we race them, if not we be patient and wait till they are ready.


  • Do I get updates on how my horse is going?

    Yes, you will receive regular updates via video and audio from both us and your trainer.



  • Do I own my horse forever?

    Yes. You own your horses until we decide to sell or retire him or her.


  • What if my horse goes to stud?

    If your horse goes to stud you will receive your % share of all profits that the horse makes, this can come in a one-off payment if the horse is sold outright or on ongoing income if the breeder only buys a portion of the horse.


  • Does Australian Bloodstock remain in the ownership group?

    Yes we do, we keep from 10-30% of each horse we syndicate as we have confidence in our selection process and we are here to enjoy the thrill of racing also. You are brought in as a partner.



  • Do I pick where my horse runs?

    Being in a syndicate with many other owners doesn’t lend itself to everyone having a say on where your horse runs. We employ the best trainers in the land so between us and them you will have your horse placed in the right races. Our main priority with each horse is to place them to advantage and where we think they will earn the biggest cheque.
