Geez, what a dart throwing exercise her choice of mates have been Confused

Her fist foal arrived in 2007. He was by Galileo.

He sold as a yearling for $1,500,00 purchased by this year’s Melbourne Cup winning trainer Danny O’brien.

He raced as ROCKSTARDOM and won $29,015 in prizemoney.

He was then sold for $17,000

He is now dead.

Her 2nd foal arrived in 2008. She was by Fusaichi Pegasus.

She sold as a yearling for $1,200,000 purchased by trainer Mark Kavanagh.

She raced as LA DOLCA DIVA and won $6,500 in prizemoney.

She was then sold for $300,000 and has produced a stakes place getter in Touch of Mink.

Her 3rd foal arrived in 2009. He was by Encosta De Lago.

He was sent to France to race.

He raced as COASTER and was unplaced in his 4 starts winning $2,350 in prizemoney.

His whereabouts at present are unknown.

Her 4th foal arrived in 2011. He was by Lonhro.

He sold as a yearling for $360,000 purchased by Shadwell Australia.

He raced as TAQNEEN and won $14,750 in prizemoney.

He was sold for $5,500 and his only two wins were at the Picnic races.

Her 5th foal arrived in 2012. He was by High Chaparral.

He sold for $275,000 purchased by James Bester.

He raced as SURREY and has won $20,476 in prizemoney.

He’s won just 1 race and his latest run was 5 months ago when 15th in a BM 65 race.

Her 6th foal arrived in 2014. She was by All Too Hard.

She sold as a yearling for $300,000 purchased by trainer Tony McEvoy.

She races as DIVANATION and has won $75,600.

She’s had 7 starts, for 2 wins and 4 placings and is stakes placed.

Her 7th foal arrived in 2015. She was by Starspangledbanner.

She was retained to race by her breeder Tony Santic.

She raced as DEMAND ATTENTION and won $21,400 in prizemoney.

She retired this year after just one win from 5 starts.

Her 8th foal arrived in 2016. She was by Brazen Beau.

She has been retained by her breeder Tony Santic

She will race as SUBLIME DIVA.

She is a 3YO with Chris Waller and is yet to race.

Her 9th foal arrived in 2018. She is by Written Tycoon.

She is unraced and unnamed.

Her 10th foal arrived in 2019. She is by More Than Ready

In the great mare’s favour is the fact her babies, while all slow, have gotten a little better each time one has arrived.

And she looks like she might meld better with sprinting stallions.

Time will tell and she has an unraced 3YO, a 2YO and now this foal to improve her name in the breeding barn.

If she had a modest race record, she would have been pensioned or sold as a riding horse by her 5th or 6th foal.  Hoping for lightning to strike so far has meant a lot of dry seasons.

Very expensive & exclusive bragging rights to own the son or daughter of  multiple Melb. Cup winner Big smile Ego driven is my guess.

My one visit to Australia from Ireland in 2003, arrived the morning of the Melbourne Cup, went to the race, record crowd 122k, couldn't get within 50 yards of the track, did not see one horse.  I heard Makbye Diva won.
The lesson from her breeding record is it would have been better to send her to $1,000 sires.
As said above. it is about bragging rights, how much you spent, not how much you won.

If you give a trainer or a bloodstock agent your money, $10k or $10 million, they will buy a horse, tell you it has a great walk, a good attitude, is athletic, comes from a good family, is by a sire who stamps his stock. Ermm

Speculation on breeding value.  Ego is involved to some extent, speculation is bigger.  If that $1M colt wins big, you get HUGE returns.  Think of the money that will come in for The Autumn Sun.  If your $1M colt is one of the few who is a super hit at stud, the Snitzels or IAI's of the world, your payoff is even bigger.

If your horse is good enough to stand at stud, then your $1M investment (minus racetrack stuff) can be paid off in 1 year with a $7500 fee and 130 outside mares.  That's I Am Invincible, by the way.  If your investment turns out to be a The Autumn Sun, with a starting fee of $77,000, you need 13 mares per million dollars of purchase to be even on your investment, and everything else is gravy.

Yes, it was a good win and why didn't this happen ages ago....although there has been change in trainer. Her last 4 have been 1600, 1600, 1600 and now 2025.

Tony McEvoy:

"Divanation is a lightly raced daughter of the great Makybe Diva and unfortunately hasn't been seen for nearly a year after knee surgery.

"She ran a place in the Warrnambool Cup at just her sixth start and has a lot of talent."

From racing.com

A four-year-old daughter of Makybe Diva has been snapped up for $125k on Inglis Digital’s most recent catalogue that ended on Wednesday.

Avila, an unraced mare by Written Tycoon out of the three-time Melbourne Cup-winner was purchased by owner of stallion Russian Camelot, John Wheeler.

Despite the Diva’s seven progeny who’ve made it to the racetrack sharing an underwhelming record, the opportunity to buy into the family of the seven-time Group 1-winner was an opportunity Wheeler simply couldn’t let slip.

“It’s a bit hard to walk away from a family like Makybe Diva’s, there isn’t going to be any more,” he said.

“The family is a strong family, a lot of the progeny haven’t raced as well as the dam, but they have raced and they have won, so at the end of the day you can only say there’s a chance.”

Wheeler confirmed Avila was purchased as a breeding proposition, to be served by Russian Camelot in the coming months.

“I’ll send her up to Three Bridges with Toby Liston and his family, I’m sure they’ll do a good job,” Wheeler said.

“I’m happy, she’s going to go to Russian Camelot, I’m looking forward to hopefully finding a decent runner from them.

“Any breeding like racing is a gamble, if there was any certainty in it, there’d be no disappointed owners of horses sending it to a Werribee maiden.

“These things tend to run in generations, if you’ve got an active family and you can put it to what I hope is a very good sire in Russian Camelot I’m very happy.”

Avila is the eighth progeny of Makybe Diva and finished sixth in a seven horse jump out field over 900m at Murtoa late last month before being put up for sale.

Of her nine progeny to date, only Divanation, Taqneen, and Rockstardom have won above maiden grade.

Makybe Diva’s progeny to date:

Rockstardom (Galileo) – Danny O’Brien – 12: 2-0-2 – prizemoney: $29,015

La Dolce Diva (Fusaichi Pegasus) – Mark Kavanagh – 4: 0-0-0 – prizemoney: $6,500

Taqneen (Lonhro) – Mick Bell – 35: 2-4-3 – prizemoney: $14,270

Surrey (High Chaparral) – Liam Howley – 4: 1-2-0 – prizemoney: $9,987

Divanation (All Too Hard) – Tony McEvoy – 9: 2-2-2 – prizemoney: $77,200

Demand Attention (Starspangledbanner) – Chris Waller – 5: 1-0-0 – prizemoney: $29,740

Sublime Diva (Brazen Beau) – Colin Little – 13: 1-4-1 – prizemoney: $59,905

Terrifictonka (More Than Ready) – Anthony & Sam Freedman – yet to race

Winning isn't everything, it's the only thing

You’ll never guess who Richard Otto’s stunning LOVERACING.NZ Thoroughbred Show Horse winner Surrey is out of 👀🤩
The beautiful gelding by High Chaparral is out of none other than three time Melbourne Cup champion, Makybe Diva 🏆❤️
Surrey recorded 1 win and 7 placings on the track before being retired, and is stamping his mark in his life off the track in the show ring 😍

Unfortunately i dont think many were given the time needed, they would of probably performed better at an older age. Divanation looked the goods but pushed too early, and a pity they didnt keep the Written Tycoon in, probably would of been a smoky later on.
