Gr2-Winning Sire Sidereus Joins Oaklands Stud

Thursday, 19th April 2012

A group of influential Queensland breeding operations (Neville Stewart's Oaklands Stud, the McAlpine family's Eureka Stud and the Heinrich family's Darlington Stud) announced they have "joined forces to secure former outstanding juvenile Sidereus" (General Nediym-Hootenanny, by Best Western) from Patinack Farm to stand at Oaklands this Spring for $6,600 in a deal brokered by Magic Millions (& with Patinack "retaining breeding rights"). Now 6YO stallion Sidereus (a $210,000 yearling consigned by Baramul Stud at the 2007 Magic Millions Yearling Sale) won 2008's Gr2 Pago Pago Stakes (1200m) at Rosehill & also placed in that year's Listed Schweppervescence Sprint (1000m) at Flemington. Oaklands boss Stewart enthused: "Sidereus is a cracking individual. He was a highly admired yearling & was purchased by a renowned judge & trainer (Anthony Cummings). He is built in the same mould as his outstanding sire General Nediym & I understand he will be his only son at stud this spring. His pedigree should suit most mare owners, as it is totally free of Danehill blood. His dam hails from the family of one of the world's great pedigrees – being a member of the Eight Carat family."

Inglis Easter Day 2: Jamie Inglis Points To Bargains

Thursday, 12th April 2007

Although obviously delighted with the $3 million record-equalling sale, William Inglis Acting Managing Director, Jamie Inglis last night made particular reference to the value still to be found at Easter: "While it's very exciting to see $3 million yearlings being sold, it is equally important that the crowd, many new faces among them, understand that there is plenty of value at the other end of the scale. During the past two days we have sold 52 yearlings for $100,000 or less and it's worth remembering that many of our Easter graduates have raced at the elite level without a price tag to match. William Inglis sale graduates won 23 Gr1 races last season and the majority of them being sold at Easter. Bearing in mind that 3 of the Gr1 winners from this season - Red Dazzler, Mentality and Teranaba - were all sold at Easter for $100,000 or less, while 4-time Group One winner, Racing To Win, was knocked down for just $40,000 and has subsequently won over $2.8 million."
