Ardrossan - Book Full

Breednet - Wednesday May 10

New Zealand’s Waikato Stud have announced book full for Ardrossan off the back of his impressive first season results.

Ardrossan

It’s an interesting result for the speedy son of Redoute’s Choice, who despite standing at one of New Zealand’s premier farms, hardly started with a silver spoon but is impressing as he goes.

Retiring to Waikato in 2019, his first three books resulted 44, 58 and 37 live foals, with the initial group of 44 currently two-year-olds, which to date have resulted in nine runners, three winners and two stakes winners.

Notably his fourth season book in 2022 swelled to 110 and his 2023 yearlings averaged over $98,000, near enough to 10 times service fee.
