White Robe Lodge have announced the 2020 service fees for their three resident stallions.
Raise The Flag, who is having a standout season, heads the roster at $6,000+GST.
The regally bred son of Sadler’s Wells has made an impact on the staying and jumping features in Australia as the sire of Gr.1 Sydney Cup (3200m) winner Etah James and Warrnambool Grand Annual Steeplechase (5500m) winner Ablaze.
“We acknowledge that given the current climate times certainly aren’t easy for breeders and feel that our service fees reflect this,” stud manager Wayne Stewart said.
“At White Robe Lodge we are committed to supporting our industry and on reflection are very proud of our Stallions achievements to date.”
Ghibellines will stand at $5,000 +GST alongside Gallant Guru at $2,000 +GST.
White Robe Lodge are also offering a 10 percent discount to breeders for two or more mares booked to one stallion.
