    Overview

    FROM CHAMPION BLOODLINES TO GRAND CIRCUIT GLORY…

    As one of the highest-performing Australian sons of champion sire American Ideal (USA), Soho Tribeca built an outstanding race record that saw him compete successfully against the very best pacers of his generation. From feature racing as a two-year-old through to Grand Circuit competition, he developed into one of Australia’s most accomplished open-class performers.

    Across five seasons of racing, Soho Tribeca earned $1,103,854, winning 21 races and finishing in the placings a further 24 times from just 59 starts. His three Group 1 victories in the Golden Nugget, WA Pacing Cup and Vicbred Super Series 4YO Final headline an impressive résumé, while he also won two Inter Dominion Championship heats and produced outstanding performances in many of Australasia’s premier races, including the Miracle Mile, Hunter Cup, Fremantle Cup and Len Smith Mile. Throughout his career, Soho Tribeca measured himself against champions including Lazarus, Chicago Bull, Tiger Tara and Lennytheshark, recording memorable victories over some of the sport’s biggest names.

    His pedigree is equally as impressive. Soho Tribeca is out of Pixel Perfect, the 2018 Australian Broodmare of the Year, while his granddam Amarillen received the same honour in 2017. Few stallions can boast consecutive Australian Broodmare of the Year winners in their direct maternal line, highlighting the strength and consistency of one of the Australian Stud Book’s most successful families.

    Now with his oldest progeny four-year-olds, Soho Tribeca is making an encouraging start to his stud career. With more than 60 individual winners and progeny earnings exceeding $1.7 million, his offspring continue to perform across Australia, adding further weight to a pedigree already built on proven race performance and one of the country’s most influential maternal families.

    Race Record

    Few Australian-bred pacers of his generation could match the consistency, versatility and class of Soho Tribeca. Across 59 career starts, he recorded 21 wins, 24 placings and amassed $1,103,854 in stakes, competing successfully from two years of age through to open-class Grand Circuit racing.

    A three-time Group 1 winner, Soho Tribeca’s career was highlighted by victories in the WA Pacing Cup, Golden Nuggetand Vicbred Super Series 4YO Final. He also captured the Kilmore Pacing Cup (G2), two Inter Dominion Championship heats (G2) and the Caduceus Club Cup (G3), while consistently performing at the highest level throughout Australasia.

    Just as impressive was the calibre of horses he raced against. Soho Tribeca regularly matched motors with champions including Lazarus, Chicago Bull, Tiger Tara and Lennytheshark, recording memorable victories while earning placings in many of the sport’s most prestigious races, including the Miracle Mile, Hunter Cup, Fremantle Cup and Allied Express Sprint.

    A Horse That Kept Getting Better

    Unlike many horses that excel for only a season, Soho Tribeca continued to improve as he matured. He was competitive from the beginning of his career, developed into a feature race winner at three, captured multiple Group 1 victories at four and went on to establish himself as a genuine Grand Circuit performer against the best horses in the country.

    Pedigree

    Pedigree has always been one of Soho Tribeca’s greatest strengths. By champion sire American Ideal (USA) and from one of Australia’s most accomplished maternal families, his bloodlines are backed by generations of proven performers.

    American Ideal has established himself as one of the world’s leading pacing sires, leaving elite performers across North America, Australasia and Europe. His influence continues to be felt throughout the breed, with his sons and daughters renowned for their speed, class and ability to perform at the highest level.

    The maternal side of Soho Tribeca’s pedigree is equally compelling.

    His dam, Pixel Perfect, was crowned Australian Broodmare of the Year in 2018, following her dam Amarillen, who received the same honour in 2017. Back-to-back Australian Broodmare of the Year winners in the direct maternal line is a remarkable achievement and a reflection of a family that has consistently produced outstanding racehorses.

    Pixel Perfect has now produced nine foals to race for eight winners, headed by millionaire Soho Tribeca, alongside Carlas Pixel ($480,128), Birdy Mach ($270,612), Soho Nolita ($238,220), Perfect Mach ($210,962), Soho Park Avenue ($110,694) and Soho Hamilton ($100,274). It is a production record that speaks for itself.

    The family extends well beyond Pixel Perfect. Granddam Amarillen also established herself as an exceptional producer, leaving eight winners including Villagem ($626,585), Miss Graceland ($244,658) and Nostra Beach ($266,190), ensuring the family has continued to produce elite performers across multiple generations.

    For breeders, Soho Tribeca represents far more than an outstanding racehorse. He represents a family built on consistency, soundness and performance, with generation after generation producing horses capable of winning feature races and earning significant prizemoney. It is this depth of pedigree that gives Soho Tribeca such a strong foundation as a breeding stallion.
