Featuring 12 stallions - seven in Victoria and
five in Queensland - Palentino joins the lineup at a fee of $17,600, while in
other exciting news, proven speed source, Statue of Liberty, will relocate to
Queensland, standing for a fee of $7,700."Sun Stud is gearing up for another busy season," Sun Stud's Sales & Nominations Manager, Phil Marshall points out.
"Naturally, there's plenty of interest already in Palentino which is hardly surprising - he won two Group Ones and a Group Two over the mile at Flemington and defeated some of Australia's best performers including horses like Black Heart Bart.
"The re-location of Statue of Liberty is also an interesting development and sure to be welcomed by Queensland breeders. His brilliant sprinter, Hay List, was a Group winner in Brisbane and finished second to Black Caviar in the BTC Cup. Statue of Liberty will stand at $7,700, alongside Black Caviar's sire, Bel Esprit, who is leading sire in Queensland by earnings and winners and is exceptional value at $12,100 in 2017."
Magnus, on the back of another successful year
which includes gallopers like dual Group One winner Malaguerra, heads the
Victorian roster at a fee of $22,000, while his stablemates are: Melbourne Cup
winner Fiorente ($17,600) whose first crop sold up to $200,000 in 2017; the
unbeaten 2YO, Fighting Sun ($13,750), whose initial yearlings have stood out
from the crowd selling for $165,000, $150,000, $140,000, $120,000 etc; Black
Caviar's brother and leading Victorian second season sire, Moshe ($7,700), stakes
winning 2YO, Ready For Victory ($6,600) who is about to embark on his second
season at stud and; Squamosa ($6,600) whose first crop runners boast stakes
performers on both sides of the Tasman.And Queenslanders don't just have the State of Origin to crow about with Bel Esprit and Statue of Liberty more than ably supported by Leading Second Season Sire, Love Conquers All ($12,100), Leading Queensland First Season Sire, Instinction ($3,850) and Group Two Queensland Guineas winner, Jabali ($4,950) who is preparing to cover his second book of mares in 2017.
"We're very happy with our lineup for 2017," Sun Stud's Managing Director, Danielle Cheng, enthused.
"I believe our stallions are very competitively priced in what is an extremely buoyant market and the roster really does offer something for all breeders."
