PERTANICITY (noun) the quality or condition of being pertinacious; stubborn persistence; obstinacy.
The result may only be third but this was a HUGE win for us!
This pint-sized ball of sass arrived to us nigh on eight months ago to help get her to a point where we could see what she had under that little orange bonnet. 🐎💨
Through patience, determination, hard work, more patience and more hard work, she did us all very proud running a very encouraging third behind two well-performed horses at the Cambridge trials today. She was an absolute star all-round! 🌟
Well done boys - it’s a result for everyone!
How’s this for a way to break your maiden?! 🌟
CARMENERE and Sam Weatherley slog it out at Woodville today to get the choccies! 🏆
Congratulations to owners David and Andrew of Andari Ltd, so good to see ‘Bert’ put it all together for you! 🥳
The win was made even more special with Sam being really good mates of both Dan and Mason. 🍻
Congratulations everyone and huge thanks to the team at home who put the polish on him! 🤩
“KOSHU in full flight here, what a terrific debut by KOSHU” 🎙
We think so too Darren!
DMR grad KOSHU (Satono Aladdin x Syrah) gives them a galloping lesson on debut at Royal Randwick. She is a beautiful filly and being a half to G1 winning gals Loire and A Touch of Ruby, she has it all ahead of her!
Congratulations to Trelawney Stud and also the team at John O’Shea Racing. We look forward to watching her dominate Sydney! 🔥
We could not be happier with the way our New Zealand Bloodstock purchases are coming along! 🌟
Here is our EL ROCA X REGALIA colt 🐎 who, at the time we thought was a great buy, but now we know he was an absolute steal from the Westbury Stud draft. He is an extremely forward colt, who is bred speed on speed and has an attitude of a champion. 💫
If you are also impressed with what you see and are keen to be a part of a talented and upcoming stable, then you know who to contact. 🤩

🖤💛❤️ Sheez where it all started. 🌟
Sheez the foundation, the flagbearer, the first. Our first racehorse, our first runner, our first winner. Our first stakes winner, our first Gr.1 runner and our first trip across the Tasman.
Sheez turned a dream into reality. Sheez done it all. 💫
Today she signs off her career as a racehorse with six wins, including two at stakes level. 🏆
SHEEZALLMINE we salute you. ❤️💛🖤
Better late than never right?!
TEXAS TEA (Puccini x Morning Oil) breaks his maiden in veeeeerrry convincing style at Taupō Racing Club yesterday! 💨
Aided by a G U N (that’s gun 🔫 for those who started celebrating New Years before Midday!), by Sam Weatherley, TEXAS TEA romped to victory at only his second start! 🌟
Congratulations to owners Andrew and David from Andari Ltd who bred and race this big son of Puccini. 🏆
Patch was prepared to the minute ⏰ by the team at home so big ups to everyone involved!
Have a safe one y’all and catch you in 2022! ✌️
How about this for a reception for a Golden Eagle 🦅 winner!

We had a bunch of our team step out today at Racing Taupo Inc. trials. ☀️
With plenty of young stock out there learning their craft, it was a couple of our older boys who were to the fore later in the day.
Check out the final stages of GRAND GESTURE and PARADIGM SHIFT winning their respective trials. 👇
Really exciting to see these boys taking out their first trials of their new campaigns. 🤩
“Excited?! I’m pumped Richo!” - Jye McNeil
DMR graduate I’M THUNDERSTRUCK breaks through for his maiden Gr.1 victory in the Toorak Handicap at Caulfield this afternoon.

And that’s a wrap!
Tegan Newman has officially signed off as an apprentice today at Racing Taupo Inc. ✍️
Throughout an injury-plagued apprenticeship, Tegan managed to boot home 74 winners from 866 rides; and has been an integral part of the Daniel Miller Racing team since our launch a couple of years ago.
On reflection, Tegan recalls her three-straight wins on SHEEZALLMINE, her Auckland Cup Day-double, her two-straight on GOSPODIN and her treble at Matamata Racing Club recently, all career-to-date highlights. 🏆
The whole team wish you all the best in the next stage of your career Tegan and can’t wait to see you kicking huge goals! 🌟
Check out some of Tegan’s career highlights below 👇
Grateful after receiving 50mls of rain overnight/early hours of this morning, to be able to continue working the horses with the track under water! 🌧
Despite the weather, we never seem to get sick of the view 😍
Working out is so much easier with your best friend!
SWEYNESSE X RAISE YOUR VOICE (Sam) and LUCKY SHARK (Ben), offer each other some moral support as they do the hard yards on the treadmill this morning. 🏃♂️
🔙 It’s the middle day of Grand National week at Riccarton Park Racecourse today so we thought we better throw it back to 2014 - when a very young Daniel Miller, takes out the 0-1 win Steeplechase on BRER.
The duo had combined to win a maiden steeplechase on the first day of the carnival, and backed up 4 days later to win again! 😀
As the curtain comes down on the 2020/21 season, we reflect on our biggest one yet! ⭐️
We saddled up 114 runners and took home the spoils 13 times - including the Listed Hazlett Stakes at Otago Racing Club. 🏆
None of this would be possible without the ongoing support from our loyal owners, suppliers, jockeys and supporters.
Lastly, a massive thank you to the staff - Mason, Tegan, Wiremu, Jah, Ashleigh, Shannon and Jane; you’re contribution to the success of the stable is huge and we can’t thank you enough! 🤩💫
Check out our 13 winners 👇
Move along people, nothing to see 👀 here…
