Charge Forward Strikes Early

Media Release - Sunday September 17
In great news to supporters of Group I winning stallion Charge Forward, the son of Red Ransom (USA) has got his first two mares in foal since moving from Arrowfield Stud to Murrulla Stud under the guidance of Tim and Celie Nolan.

Charge Forward"We've changed up his routine and given him his own space and it seems to be working as he is thriving," said Tim Nolan. "To get his first two mares in foal is a great start to his new life here.

"Celie and I and our vet have worked pretty hard to ensure that he has felt at home here at Murrulla Stud. We try to keep him pretty fit by riding him most days. We're excited to be standing such a successful outcross stallion and pumped for the coming season."

Not only is Charge Forward the sire of 16 stakeswinners to date but he is also showing signs of being a very successful broodmare sire of the future following juvenile successes last year with Golden Slipper winner She Will Reign and Blue Diamond Preview winner Limestone who are both out of Charge Forward mares.

Charge Forward stands for $8,800 (inclusive of GST) with discounts for multiple bookings which can be arranged through Tim Nolan on 0417 140 712.
