Daily Roundup For Wednesday August 5

It takes a bit of effort to get to Rosemont Stud near Geelong which is a solid hike from the main studs within easy reach of the Nagambie area in Victoria, but with superstar young guns Schwarz and Henry Longfellow (IRE) on the roster, Mitho and his team were always going to be a must visit!

In a comparatively short space of time Yulong have become a global powerhouse in the thoroughbred industry and nowhere more than in Australia, so when they open the gates to their headquarters in Victoria you can expect a big crowd.
