Glen Eden Stud to Stand Rebel Dane and Giant's Steps

Rebel Dane is a dual Group 1 winner and his last thirty-one starts were at Group 1 and Group 2 level. Rebel Dane can be described as the ultimate colonial sprinter and, through-out his career, displayed striking tenacity and speed. His most notable win being the Manikato Stakes where he beat eight Group 1 sprinters including Chautaqua and Buffering. ‘He is strong, striking and a tough horse.

 

His biggest traits on the racecourse is that he was very tough and resilient where he raced for five years in Group 1 and Group 2 company and retired sound.

You couldn’t ask more from the horse, he has a great nature and is very confident’ Remarked Sonia O’Gorman from Glen Eden Stud.

 

This will be Rebel Dane’s fourth season at Stud with many of his progeny making their debuts on the racetrack and they are evidencing many of the qualities evident in the sire. If you are wanting to breed a racehorse that resonates toughness and soundness, then Rebel Dane offers fantastic value with a stud fee of $5,000 including GST.

 

Giant's Steps, out of the phenomenal Giant’s Causeway, is a bloodline that has certainly put a stamp on Australian champions. Giant Steps, a champion Turf Colt in Chile during the 2012/2013 season which included Group 1 victories, proved he was hugely versatile winning over multiple distances ranging from 1200m to 2400m.

Giant’s Causeway was a remarkable Sire of Sires with his progeny producing 27 Group 1 winners, 215 Stakes winners and 34 Group 2 winners. The most notable line in Australia is the champion Lope de Vega whose progeny include Group 1 winner Santa Ana Lane and Vega Magic to name a few.

Giant's Steps is closely related to the exceptional Hussonet who stood in Australia and Ekraar who were both successful proven sires. Giant Steps is an ideal cross for the ever popular Danehill/Danzig pedigree line.

"Giant's Steps is very gentle and good to handle on the farm and has been adapting very well to any change. He had a good season last year serving double what he did the year before," said Sonia.

For a stud fee of $4,000 including GST, Giant Steps is an unique opportunity to access the phenomenal bloodline.

Sonia O’Gorman appreciates the difficulties that many breeders will be facing this year and is offering a number of substantial incentives.
