约见一次马王【嘉应高升】的爸爸需要多少钱?
马王的故乡---新西兰 如果要问这两年香港赛马圈最火的名字是谁,相信很多马迷都会脱口而出——【KA YING RISING-嘉应高升】。 (图源:windsorparkstud) 这匹不断刷新纪录的短途王者,不仅征服了中国香港赛场,更成为全球评分最高的草地赛驹之一。目前23战-21冠-2亚军,已经累计赢得近1.6亿港币奖金。对于很多人来说,【嘉应高升】代表的是速度、统治力和冠军光环。 而它背后的父系,则来自新西兰温莎牧场(Windsor Park Stud)的种公马【SHAMEXPRESS-特快班车】。 有趣的是,当温莎牧场公布2026年种公马配种费时,不少人发现一个意想不到的情况——拥有【嘉应高升】这匹世界级代表作的【特快班车】,配种费并不是牧场最高。 2026年,【特快班车】的配种费仅定为 2.5万纽币+GST,约人民币10万元,也就是说约见马王的爸爸配种一次仅为10万块,而同牧场的另外两匹近年间新引进的欧洲冠军种公马【PADDINGTON-帕丁顿】和【AUGUSTE RODIN-多产巨匠】则同为30,000纽币+GST,约12万人民币。 为什么会这样? 一匹超级明星, 不等于一匹超级种公马 在很多人的印象中,一匹种公马只要出了像【嘉应高升】这样的世界级赛驹,身价自然应该一路飙升。 但纯血马繁育行业的逻辑其实并没有那么简单。 对于繁育者而言,一匹种公马的价值从来不只是因为它出现过一匹超级明星,而是要看他 能否持续不断地输出优秀赛驹。 【特快班车】之所以能够长期受到市场认可,并不是单纯依靠【嘉应高升】的成功,他的子嗣中还包括一级赛冠军【Coventina Bay】、分级赛冠军【Sterling Express】、【Zola Express】等黑体赛驹。 换句话说,想荣登世界级顶尖的种公马宝座,并不是“偶尔出一匹好马子嗣”,而是具备持续出一级赛冠军子嗣的能力。 “稳定输出,永远比昙花一现更具价值。” 繁育不是守着过去, 而是布局未来 不过,对于繁育行业来说,仅仅依靠已经成功的血线还远远不够。纯血马的繁育发展从来都在不断进步。 二十年前流行的血线,未必仍然适合二十年后的赛场;而今天欧洲最成功的冠军血统,也许正是未来南半球赛场的新方向。 因此,世界顶级牧场始终都在做同一件事情:不断引入新的冠军基因。 这也是温莎牧场近年来持续从欧洲引进新晋种公马的重要原因。其中最受市场关注的,无疑是【帕丁顿】和【多产巨匠】。 而巧合的是,
