Successful National Hunt stallion Malinas (Ger) (Lomitas {GB}) will moved to Coolagown Stud in County Cork next year in a joint-venture with Rathbarry Stud. A fee for the four-time Group 1-placed G2 Oppenheim-Union-Rennen hero winner will be announced later. At stud to date, the 20-year-old has left Grade 2 winners Black Thunder (Fr), Medinas (Fr), Mister Malarky (GB), Touch The Eden (Fr) and Union Dues (Fr), as well as Scottish Grand National hero Mighty Thunder (GB), Greatwood Handicap Hurdle scorer Harambe (GB) and Grade 1-placed hurdlers Baltazar D'Allier (Fr), Easter Day (Fr) and Tile Tapper (GB).
Coolagown Stud's David Stack commented, “Malinas has proved to be a highly reliable sire of high-class National Hunt horses, whether in bumpers, hurdles or chases, and with such strong books of mares covered at Rathbarry Stud his best days are still ahead of him.”
