Stallions parade at Vinery

Vinery Stud’s annual stallion parade will be held next week to coincide with the Scone Cup carnival.

It’s the first opportunity for broodmare owners to inspect exciting first-season sires Press Statement and Headwater since they were retired last month.

Press Statement is letting down into a magnificent young bull and he’s the only new stallion in the nation with Group 1 wins to his credit as a 2YO and 3YO.  Trainer Chris Waller rated him a better juvenile than Zoustar and Brazen Beau.

Headwater has that all-important speed-on-speed in his DNA and jockey Blake Shinn called him the “complete package” after winning the G2 Silver Slipper Stakes at Rosehill.

Group 1 champion All Too Hard will also be available for inspection fresh from a sensational round of results with his first-crop yearlings.  At a $55,000 (inc gst) service fee, he’s the best value sire in the Hunter Valley off a $244,048 average at the Inglis Easter Sale.

Vinery will parade 9 stallions on Thursday, Friday & Saturday next week (May 12-14) at 8:30am for a 9:00am start.  Please RSVP by Tuesday, May 10 to (02) 6543 8333.
