Karaka Patrons Making their Mark in Australia

Media Release - Tuesday June 14

Australian racing is currently among the most vibrant and competitive in the thoroughbred world, and a group of high-class New Zealand sires – whose progeny can regularly be sourced from Karaka – are right in the thick of the action on that lucrative stage.

Five New Zealand-based sires feature among the top 30 in the Australian sires’ premiership in 2021-22 – more than in any other season in the last decade. In an exciting pointer for the future, there are also four promising kiwi stallions among the top 25 in Australia’s second-season sire standings.
