Showcasing (GB), who has stood for £35,000 at Whitsbury Manor Stud the past two seasons, will get a significant fee hike to £55,000 for 2019. The son of Oasis Dream has enjoyed another productive year both on the racetrack and in the sales rings: he added a Group 1-winning juvenile in Advertise (GB) in addition to four new Group 2 winners including Soldier's Call (GB). In the ring, his yearlings made up to 650,000gns.
“This reflects his fantastic results at the sales and the
considerable interest we have already had, whilst continuing our plan to limit his book,” said Whitsbury Manor's Ed Harper.
G1 Flying Five S. winner Havana Grey (GB) (Havana Gold {Ire}) will stand his first season at £8,000.
“After a clean sweep of Group 1, Group 2 and Group 3 wins over five furlongs, he can rightly claim to be the fastest horse from the Galileo sire line, which allows the perfect cross for the majority of speed-bred mares,” Harper said. “He continues our strong tradition of standing fast, commercial stallions and I can't wait to show him off to breeders, as he has the physique to match. A select number of breeding rights will be made available.”
The Whitsbury Manor roster is rounded out by Adaay (Ire) (£5,000), who has his first foals this year, and Due Diligence (£4,000), with currently his first yearlings.
