Haunui Farm in conjunction
with Whitsbury Manor Stud have announced today that Showcasing will no longer
shuttle to the Southern Hemisphere.
Showcasing's stallion career has continued to flourish at Whitsbury Manor Stud
where he now commands a fully booked service fee of £35,000 having started his
stud career in 2011 at a service fee of £5,000.
With that in mind, Whitsbury Manor Stud's offer to purchase the 50%
shareholding owned by the New Zealand-based shareholders of Showcasing was
accepted on the proviso that he would no longer shuttle to the Southern
Hemisphere.
Showcasing has been represented by six stakes winners in the Southern
Hemisphere this racing season including exciting 3YO's Be Bee and So Far Sokool
and 2YO Group winners Xpression and Bit Lippy.
Showcasing stood at Haunui Farm last season at $12,000 + GST and will be
represented by three further racing crops in the Southern Hemisphere.
