Danasinga is back in the Hunter Valley for the 2011 breeding season.  He will return to Baerami Thoroughbreds where he was based for five years before a stint Touchstone Farm in WA last year.

After moving to WA, he was represented by G1 ATC Vinery Stakes winner Mirjulisa Lass — a filly bred by Paul Higgins at Baerami Thoroughbreds from his second stud season in Australia.

Higgins also had a hand in breeding Southern Skye, the Listed Geelong Classic winner sired by Danasinga in his first year standing at Baerami.

“His last three crops of three year-olds have been his best,” Higgins claimed.  “Danasinga is the best breed-to-race option in Australia.”

Danasinga was originally based in New Zealand where he sired triple Group 1 winner Metal Bender.

Danasinga (Danehill) will stand at a fee of $8,800 (inc. gst).  Some cheaper deals will be available for Bluebird (USA) mares as both Group 1 winners Mirjulisa Lass and Metal Bender are the result of the same cross.

Young Danehill stallion California Dane will also stand at Baerami Thoroughbreds in 2011.
