NSL Breeders, Ltd., a new breeders club, was launched by The National Stud on Friday.
Club members will have shares in two mares to be purchased at the 2024 breeding stock sales selected by an expert panel. The aim will be on in-foal mares, whose progeny will be sold as yearlings, while the mares will be put back in foal to on of The National Stud's stallions in 2025. Members can be involved in pedigree analysis, young stock development and bloodstock sales through the club.
Anna Kerr, CEO, said, “The purpose of the club is to bring together people who have an interest in and passion for our industry and sport. One of our key objectives at the National Stud is to increase industry access and this provides the perfect gateway into thoroughbred breeding. Alongside the commercial aspects we want people to have a really enjoyable experience, so there will be plenty of social activity and educational opportunities involved.”
