He will stand for a fee of $8,800 (inc GST).
Benfica, winner of the TJ Smith Stakes, completes the roster and will stand his first season at stud in Queensland for a fee of $4,400 (inc GST).
Benfica's first crop are two-year-olds this season and to date he has sired two winners from six runners including the Inglis 2YO Challenge (1100m) winner Barbass.
"In line with our commitment to acquiring select quality broodmares; Holy Roman Emperor, Domesday and Benfica offer the physical, racing and genetic attributes required to launch our stallion roster at a commercial level," said Marcus Langer who has recently been appointed as the chief operations officer at Aquis Farm.
Purchased by the Fung family in January 2015, Aquis Farm is a 447-hectare thoroughbred racing, boarding and breeding facility at Canungra on the Gold Coast in Queensland.
The Farm's state-ofthe-art training facilities have been expertly restored and the farm caters for more than 80 horses in training with private grass and sand training tracks and a restored water walker as well as lap pools.
Aquis Farm has a firm commitment to Queensland racing and breeding, and to the Australian thoroughbred industry as a whole with plans to extend its brand to facilitate the continued growth of the Queensland racing industry and these stallion acquisitions form a significant part of this strategy.
