Woodside Park Stud 2024 Fees Announced - Hypo Matings for All Stallions

Tara Madgwick - Friday April 26

Woodside Park Stud have confirmed fees on their six strong roster for this spring headed by new addition Benbatl (GB), a triple Group I winning sin of Dubawi, who won the Group I MRC Caulfield Stakes in 2018 and chased Winx home for second in the Cox Plate.

Benbatl (GB) is new for Woodside Park.

The former Godolphin flagbearer has been standing at stud in Japan at Big Red Farm and is working through his third book of mares, but came to the interest of Woodside Park, who had been scouring the world for a new stallion to add to their roster of Shalaa (IRE), Vancouver, Foxwedge, Rich Enuff and Delaware (GB).

Dubawi has a growing reputation as a sire of sires courtesy of stallions such as Night of Thunder , New Bay and Zarak as well as Too Darn Hot, who is now Australia’s leading first season sire with eight winners headed by Group I ATC Champagne Stakes winner Broadsiding.

Mark Dodemaide was in Japan last week to inspect Benbatl and loved what he saw with this top class stallion prospect priced at $22,000 inc GST.
