The easy success of this family is almost criminal
A unique pedigree to take a deep dive with in this month’s Vicbred Wednesday Winner – Always B Miki two-year-old Crimes Of A Lady.
Western Terror mare Our Crime of Passion arrived in Australia from New Zealand in 2011 and commenced an impressive run of seven wins in a row and, after a fourth at Kilmore, added a further three victories, mostly at Tabcorp Park Melton.
She retired in 2014 with a dozen wins to her record including a 1:54.7 in the Mitty’s Pace Final.
Owned by Tony and Pam Coniglio, the mare was sent to the breeding barn with the result of her first mating being a colt to Sportswriter who went on to race as Crime Writer ($151,000; 1:54.9). To date, she has thrown seven foals; a weanling by Betting Line, a yearling full sister to Crimes Of A Lady and four others who have raced – all winners.
