Arrowfield Stud service fees for 2016

Arrowfield Stud has announced the service fees for its 12 stallions with this year’s roster headed by champion stallion Redoute’s Choice at an unchanged $110,000 (inc gst).

Redoute’s Choice sired his 28th Group 1 winner last month and three millionaire colts at last week’s Inglis Easter Sale where he had 20 yearlings average $573,250.

Snitzel joins his famous sire at the same fee ($110,000) after supplying five million-dollar yearlings in 2016 and the sale-toppers at all three major Australian auctions.  Already responsible for 7 Group 1 winners, he has added five new stakes winners to his record since January 1.

Australia’s current leading active sire Not A Single Doubt has posted 10 stakes winners this season, including three Group 1 winners, and demand for his yearlings has driven their prices up to the $850,000 paid for the Colorado Claire colt at Inglis Easter.  His 2016 fee has been set at $71,500 (inc gst).

Three new stallions join the Arrowfield roster in 2016.  Top-class sprinter-miler Real Impact, a Group 1 winner in Australia & Japan, is the first son of the great Deep Impact to stand in this part of the world.  His first season fee is $19,250 (inc gst).

Two exceptionally handsome sons of Redoute’s Choice – Scissor Kick and Panzer Division – will stand alongside their sire with all the credentials to build on the success of Snitzel, Not A Single Doubt & Beneteau.

Dubai World Cup champion Animal Kingdom, whose first yearlings have sold up to $310,000 this year, will stand at $27,500 (inc gst).  The same fee applies to six-time Group 1 winner & New Zealand Horse of the Year Dundeel, whose first yearlings will sell in 2017.

Arrowfield Stud Chairman John Messara says, “These 12 stallions represent the best lines of Danehill and the best outcross options we can source for Australian and New Zealand breeders.

“Redoute’s Choice, Snitzel & Not A Single Doubt continue to write a spectacular father-and-sons story on the track and in the ring.

“We believe our three new stallions are priced very attractively.  Real Impact offers breeders their first opportunity to use a world-class son of Deep Impact for less than $20,000, while Scissor Kick and Panzer Division are great prospects to repeat the success of Not A Single Doubt and Beneteau who began their careers at similar fees.”
