Stallion Star Power at Karaka 2021

Media Release - Monday December 21

New Zealand currently boasts one of its strongest stallion line-ups in decades. In addition to outstanding exploits on home soil, kiwi stallions have sired the winners of seven Group One races in Australia this season, and feature prominently on the Australian premiership. Over the last six years, New Zealand-based sires have also won four stallion titles in Singapore and two in Hong Kong.

Karaka 2021 is the number one source of progeny by these high-quality sires, as well as a selection of yearlings by some of the biggest names from Australia’s stallion ranks, plus the sons and daughters of a range of young, up-and-coming sire talent.
