Note to Self: Redoute’s Choice and his sons are simply what works!

Media Release - Tuesday October 17

Saturdays Caulfield Guineas, and Randwick's Everest meetings once again highlighted the dominance of Redoute's Choice and his sons in Australia, as no less than eight winners across Sydney and Melbourne were sired by sons of Redoute's such as Time Thief, Not A Single Doubt and Snitzel.

CounterattackTheir prevalence has now become so dominant they stand at figures daunting to most breeders.

Counterattack is the only first season son of Redoute's Choice to stand in the Hunter Valley, providing an opportunity to access this sire line.

His Snippets Dam line is the producer of two Group 1 Winners, with eight foals to race all winners. 

A cross with Redoute's Choice we haven't seen at stud for 11 years, though the previous result was champion sire Snitzel.

Redzel's (Snitzel) success in the $10million Everest further reinforces the credentials of Counterattack on the track, having defeated Redzel in the Heritage Stakes at Randwick. 

Counterattack then narrowly missed in this year's Group 1 Doomben 10,000 defeated by the now inaugural Everest winner.

With strong fertility, Counterattackoffers breeders an opportunity to access a winning formula, at a time of the year where pregnancies are of the utmost of importance. 


Don't let your mare miss, he has the Pedigree, looks and fertility to put quality foals on the ground next year much the same as he was himself. (See Below)


Counterattack stands at Kitchwin Hills at a fee of $13,200.
