BMD Bloodstock Building Momentum With Ready to Run Sale Drafts 🏇💫
The 2026 NZB Ready to Run Sale will be the fourth appearance for Barry Donoghue’s BMD Bloodstock and is shaping up to be the biggest one yet.
Donoghue subsequently launched his own business, and BMD Bloodstock made its sale-ring debut at the 2023 Ready to Run Sale at Karaka.
Multiple winners have come out of BMD's drafts, such as the three-race winner #Kosta (NZ) (War Decree) and the promising #Chisora (NZ) (Belardo), who was sold to Hong Kong following a smart maiden win at New Plymouth on New Year’s Eve in 2024. Renamed #Nezha, the gelding has since been a winner in @HKJC_Racing .🎉
Another graduate, #Mindgames (Maurice), has had three starts for two wins and a placing and will contest Saturday’s A$2m Group One Spring Champion Stakes (2000m) in Sydney for the @JohnOSheaRacing team in the @OTIRacing colours.🍀
The BMD Bloodstock consignment also includes progeny of State of Rest, King of Comedy, Bivouac, Proisir, Contributer, Santos, Tagaloa, All Too Hard, Savabeel, Alabama Express, Anders, Cool Aza Beel, Pride of Dubai, Strasbourg and Shocking.📙
Donoghue’s enthusiasm for his draft only increased following the Breeze-Ups at Te Rapa last week.
“I was very happy with the way they all breezed up,” he said. “They all ran between 10.4 and 11.2, so they were nice and even, and I was really proud of the way they all handled themselves. They couldn’t have done any better.”
