Michael Grieve:

“Under The Louvre has produced good results from his limited number to hit the track so far.

“Impressive winners Cadboll and Under The Dunes have a great future in front of them, both highly regarded in one of Australia’s leading stables.

“It won’t be long before we see many more winners from this Group 1 winning stallion going by the reports we are receiving from stables and bloodstock agents.

“Under The Louvre is producing athletic, strong and powerful types with good actions and importantly terrific attitudes to their training.”

Michael Grieve:

“Whittington is one of the most consistent and best value sires in Queensland based on the success his progeny continue to have all over the state.

“We are seeing many owners of his progeny enjoying the QTIS bonus prizemoney, not only in metropolitan Brisbane but also provincially in North and Central Queensland.

“He’s had a good run of winners in Brisbane this season including Stampe with the 4yo so close to a black type performance.

“Whittington is also a prolific winner up north led by Such A Whit with 7 wins and 3-time winners Waterway, Oswana and Russian Weapon to name a few.”
