Third living foal of

Cosima's Dream
(Nediym / Military Belle)

Cosima's Dream only had a very short career, racing twice before going to stud however it is the feats of her full brother, GENERAL NEDIYM for which she is famous for.

General Nediym went to the stables of Bill Mitchell in Queensland, and stable foreman Peter Moodie quickly recognised that the two year-old was pretty special, setting him for a first-up win over 1000m at Eagle Farm and giving his owners, the Glengarry Racing Club Syndicate (manager Ron Ashdown), Ron and Helen Ashdown, T.K. and Mrs A. Mok, D.G. and Mrs L. Jackson and Dr F. and Mrs J. Schubert the chance to secure luxury odds of 12/1.

He would win his next four starts including the Magic Millions Two Year Old Classic-RL and Todman Slipper Trial-Gr.2 (1200m) before finishing fourth to Guineas (as favourite) in the 1997 Golden Slipper-Gr.1.

His three year-old campaign started in brilliant fashion on August 9, 1997 with a two and a quarter-length win over Sports in the San Domenico Stakes-Gr.2 (1000m, Randwick 57.7, track dead), then on August 23 he collected the Up and Coming Stakes-Gr.2 (1200m, Warwick Farm, 1:09.06, good), giving Encounter a three-length drubbing in the process. The Listed Heritage Stakes came next on September 13 and regular rider Brian York had no trouble guiding the colt to a three and a half-length victory over Guineas (1300m, Rosehill 1:15.41, good).

Stepped up in distance, and like his previous two runs the odds-on favourite, General Nediym continued his winning way on September 27 beating Pleasure Giver and Trader Vic in the Stan Fox Stakes-Gr.2 (1400m, Randwick, 1:23.52, dead).

Tested at 1600m against his own age next start in the Caulfield Guineas-Gr.1 on October 11 the winning streak came to an end when he was beaten a half-length and neck into third place behind Encounter and Schubert.

He was given just over four months off and resumed on a dead track down the Flemington straight on February 8, collecting his first Gr.1 in the Lightning Stakes (1000m in 57.93), beating the runner-up Notoire by two and a half-lengths. Given a big weight of 58kg in the Oakleigh Plate-Gr.1 on February 21, the General ran the only bad race of his career to finish 14th of 15 behind Singing the Blues.

Redoute's Choice


Redoute's Choice / Cosima's Dream


This is an impeccably bred filly that will hold untold value as a broodmare once she has finished her racing.

She looks and is bred to sprint with short cannons and and a powerful rump.

She is a real running filly and was selected at the Magic Millions Premier sale where we hope to be holding up the 2yo Magic Millions trophy in 2009.

She has passed all the vet checks, which is attached below and has clean x-rays.

This outstanding filly will be trained by one of Australia's leading trainers Clarry Conners.

Clarry Conners is not your typical horse trainer. He has been around the thoroughbred all his life, enjoying one of most colourful upbringings in racing alongside his father, Clarry senior.
The two Clarry's traveled NSW from racing centre to racing centre, which for the teenager Clarry junior, was a wonderful education for when he did finally branch solo.

And as a stand-alone trainer, Clarry made an instant impression on the fickle industry and always had a stand-out horse in the stable.

Of course, Victory Lodge, named after Clarry's complex, was his first taste of Group 1 success, winning the 1984 AJC Sires Produce Stakes - beating the great Red Anchor.
A host of the elite Group races have followed, including the training of two Racehorse of the Year- the champion filly Research and the champion two-year-old Tierce, Ironically, sired by Victory Prince.
Research did the impossible - beating the colts in the 1989 AJC Derby then backing up four days later to win the AJC Oaks.
Tierce and Burst won Sydney racing's two-year-old grand slam - 1989 STC Golden Slipper Stakes then the AJC double of the Sires Produce and Champagne Stakes in successive years, an amazing training feat.
Not to mention Clarry's four Golden Slipper successes - Burst, Tierce, Prowl and Belle de Jour.

So Clarry's record says it all, but where he differs from most Sydney stables, is that a racing a horse with Clarry is an experience with a difference.
Clarry's wife Maree is the stable manager and alongside her husband every day to ensure the communication to owners is second-to-nine.
And you need not worry about your horse's welfare. Clarry and Maree live on site so your horse has the trainer's attention 24/7.

No wonder Victory Lodge is such a successful establishment.

This outstanding filly will be paid up for the

The $6million Magic Millions Race Series

2009 $3million Golden Slipper and Golden Rose.

2009 $1million Blue Diamond stakes.
