Resilience, passion, sheer hard work and of course disappointments are all in the mix when it comes to breeding thoroughbred horses.
However, those dedicated and emotive horse loving individuals that are involved in the industry are unanimous that the exhilaration derived from breeding winners is nothing short of euphoric.
Central Queensland thoroughbred breeder Susan Peddle fits the mould perfectly.
“I just get so much pleasure out of seeing the horses I breed get to the racetrack. When they win well that is so special. You feel so good for the owners and all connected. Of course, you get a buzz out of knowing well – I bred that horse,” Susan said.

Continuing a winning trend that could result in a personal best this season, Rockhampton trainer Ricky Vale came very close to annexing a winning treble at Callaghan Park races on Tuesday.
Vale produced tough Drumbeats seven-years-old gelding Meatball (Elly Smith, $3.60) for a last stride nose win over Electrified (Ryan Wiggins, $2.60) as his first winner in the BM 72 (1600m).
It was Meatball’s sixth race win in a 31 starts career under three trainers.
