KENFAIR (NZ)

Grey / 1989 / 16.1 HH

BY KENMARE (FR) EX MARKET FAIR (BISCAY)

KENFAIR (NZ) was a talented racehorse who won Group Races both in his 2 and 3 year old years. As a 2YO of the 1991-92 season, he was rated among AUSTRALIA’S BEST 2YO’s with victories in the Group 2 Silver Slipper Stakes and the Group 3 Skyline Stakes before finishing an unlucky 4th in the Group 1 Golden Slipper Stakes. As a 3YO, he won the Group 3 VRC Hilton on the Park Stakes at Flemington. Subsequently winning the BATC Sprint at Doomben, he retired the winner of 8 races and had the distinction of winning top class races in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

KENFAIR (NZ) is by French Group 1 winner KENMARE who earned the ranking of "Champion French Sire" twice and "Champion French Juvenile Sire" three times. At stud, KENMARE has produced over 100 stakes performers and is recognised as a boom sire of sires. His successful sons at stud - apart from KENFAIR (NZ), include KENDOR, HIGHEST HONOR, KENVAIN, as well as KELTRICE. KENFAIR (NZ) is a representative of the great GREY SOVEREIGN sire line which has been proven to cross very successfully with both colonial and international pedigrees.

The dam of KENFAIR (NZ) is MARKET FAIR, who is a Sydney metropolitan winning full sister to twice "Champion Australian Sire" and once "Champion Australia Juvenile Sire" - MARSCAY. On the racetrack, MARSCAY's eight victories included the prestigious Group 1 Golden Slipper Stakes. At stud, MARSCAY has produced 60 stakes winners of over A$38 million. The dam line of KENFAIR (NZ) is littered with black type performers and includes one of the most dominant 2YO fillies of her season - the ill-fated CONFEDERATE LADY.

KENFAIR (NZ) has already sired winners in AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND, SINGAPORE, SOUTH AFRICA and MACAU. His best performed progeny in Australia are the exciting KENGRANDE ( winner over 1800m of the VRC Barbie's Stakes) group performer CITY FAIR - (narrowly beaten in the 1999 A$1 million Group 1 Stradbroke Handicap) Randwick Group 2 winner AD ALTA and Other starters include Sydney multiple winner and class record breaker LEICAFAIR, Sydney winner ENTREVEAUX, Adelaide winner ST.
