New Zealand's greatest racehorse Lazarus has been sold to a North American syndicate in a record deal and will not race here again.
The $3.8million earner will leave for the US on May 24 where he will be aimed at a possible four-race mini career in an attempt to secure a major win there to help his dual hemisphere stallion credentials.
While the exact price is confidential the Herald estimates it must be close to $4 million when the other public offer for the five-year-old stallion is taken into account.
Lazarus has been purchase by US thoroughbred breeding giant Taylor Made Stallions, a Kentucky-based operation run by the Taylor brothers, who started their racing lives in harness racing but have concentrated on thoroughbred breeding and yearling preparation for the last three decades.

What I find amazing is that the owners finally decided to sell him right after his last start in February, which happened to be his ONLY out of the money finish ever in 45 career starts, and he finished 7th.

Because he will be a dual hemisphere stallion earning upwards of 1.5 Million/year--so they get money back in less than 4 years.
If he happens to turn out a success at stud-he will be cheap at 4 million.

HOW MUCH DID THEY PAY

It is believed they have recently reignited their interest in standardbred breeding by purchasing at least part of champion US trotter What The Hill but the Lazarus deal, put together by South Auckland agent John Curtin, breaks new ground.
-
Guess the Tailor Bros. don't think it's a dead game in the US yet. Have they been following lately?
-
Is this another Ernie Martinez deal?

Lazarus has been swimming for a month and is either going to Burke or Takter. I personally hope he goes to Jimmy
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lazarus was sold to US-based owners Taylor Made Stallions on the weekend and will have a short race career there later this year in an attempt to win a major race or pace a super fast mile, either of which would add to his commercial stallion appeal in the Northern Hemisphere.
That means he won't race again in New Zealand and therefore Purdon may not get to give him a farewell pat as Lazarus is undergoing a month of aqua training in the Waikato and is tentatively booked to fly to the US on May 24.
"If that is the case we won't be north with the Jewels team by them so I won't get a chance to see him before he goes," says Purdon.
"It will be sad not having him come back to the stable for next season because he is a beautiful horse and a real pleasure to have around the place.
"But I understand the new owners motivations. He probably has nothing left to prove down here whereas if he can go up there and get a really quick mile time it would really help his stallion career in North America."
While no trainer has been confirmed for Lazarus it is believed leading horsemen Jimmy Takter and Ron Burke are in the running to take over his career.
Lazarus is undergoing a month of aqua training in the Waikato and is tentatively booked to fly to the US on May 24.

Yes, Ernie is involved which by definition means that someone is getting fleeced.
