The Irish National Stud announced a new initiative that will provide shareholders an access point into the industry and to breed, own and sell a quality foal produced at a renowned nursery all at an affordable price. Kicking off the initiative is a filly by leading sire Invincible Spirit (Ire) (Green Desert), responsible for 20 individual Group 1 winners, including Kingman (GB), Magna Grecia (Ire), Nazeef (GB) and Moonlight Cloud (GB). The Feb. 16 foal is out of Irish National Stud broodmare Hanvarana (Ire) (Leroidesanimaux {Brz}). Bred by HH The Aga Khan, Hanvarana hails from the family of dual Derby winner Harzand (Ire) (Sea The Stars {Ire}) and Group 1 winner Seal Of Approval (GB) (Authorized {Ire}). Hanvarana is a sister to two black-type winners–G3 Thousand Guineas Trial winner Hamariyna (Ire) (Sea The Moon {Ire}) and Group 3-scorer Hunaina (Ire) (Tamayuz {GB}).
“After the great successes we have had with our Mare Syndicates model, we are delighted to create another unique opportunity for people to get involved in the breeding industry, for a modest fee and follow the life of a foal from birth through to selling in November,” said Cathal Beale, CEO, Irish National Stud. “The aim will be to sell for a profit on the investment, but the guarantee will be a shared ownership experience like no other.”
There are 400 shares available to purchase for a single payment of €330.95 per share (including taxes and charges). For more information, visit https://www.equideq.com/horse/7.
Patrick Diamond, Bloodstock and Nominations, Irish National Stud added, ”She is a filly of real quality, from day one she has looked very classy. She walks extremely well with a huge overstride, she really has a presence about her. In time she will have great appeal as race filly by Invincible Spirit having such a strong family behind her.”
