He was passed in as a yearling through Inglis for $140k with a reserve of $160k - I'm pretty sure we can reel off countless Stallions with million dollar race records who've failed at stud good luck to them.

Just looking at stud websites on this miserable day..... I see Grangewiiliam are standing Derryn (Hinchinbrook/Muhnro (Lohnro) $5k or if you pay $10k you get lifetime breeding rights for 2 mares 2018-2020 then one mare for lifetime of the stallion check out www.gwstud.com

Why announce on the website the 2018/19 calendar without having a link to it??

Arion says currently from NZ in Turkey....Paco Boy, Captain Rio, Red Giant, Fast n Famous

Stands Coolmore Ireland 25,000 Euro 2018

Maybe the thread should be titled "Big Breeders still have confidence"

I see on their website it says Service Fee Private.....

I see Novara Park with Norwegian Park will stand What's the Story (Savabeel/Tall Story) $4,000 + GST

It was grim to be there for sure - especially if you are a small breeder. It was obvious that mares light in the pedigree or not a winner or mares who have had several foals with no winners were not in favour. Some people will come on here and make rude comments about small breeders but at the end of the day a good horse can come from anywhere but if your mare falls into the above you are better to breed to race until a mare can prove herself.....IMHO

I think someone from the breeding chat said he was still on the farm so maybe retired?

$$$$$$ someone from NZ might buy tho

Bazach I was in Aussie when mare purchased - lesson learnt, if I'd had a Vet check they'd easily picked up a uterus full of urine

Yeah for broodmares I'd get a Vet certificate of breeding done no good buying one to find it needs a 3k surgery......buyer beware

Maybe just make sure she keeps the jockey on board

Might be nice if someone gave him the opportunity over NZ mares

There's only 3 new season sires listed with Arion at the moment sure there'll be more announced later in the year...

So agree with Baz what was the reason given?

Skoozi this can happen if - the mare has poor conformation and this has been passed to the foal 1/2 to Group 1 winners doesn't necessarily make her, the stallion you have used is non commercial (there are plenty at reasonable fees that can give you that), she did not race to protect her page or worse raced a lot and unplaced, what she has previously produced has been unraced or unplaced - the longer they go without a winner the less they're worth but.....don't give up that's when they throw a great winner i.e. the Cambridge Stud broodmare that sold cheaply only for her progeny come up in the races If you don't want to go to Book 3 put it on an online auction and see what the market thinks or Ready to Run it - best of luck, I know your pain!

Absolutely agree

That's actually great news as a filly out of my mare was sold to South Africa and not sure how to track her progress..I emailed SA

What are the stats for Danehill over Zabeel mares?

Swynford can you put up Asterns pedigree?

I love your line "finally" wins a race it's only had 4 starts

Doesn't show that he's been exported
