Business as Usual Bar One

Tara Madgwick - Sunday August 4

Three days into a brand new racing season and the winners are flowing for the usual suspects, but six winners in three days for this Queensland based sire is reason enough to shine a little light on a value sire that could all too easily be overlooked.

Group I placed and a multiple Group III winner, Redoute’s Choice son Pariah was given his chance at Arrowfield Stud, but with his early results not of a standard to keep him in the Hunter Valley, he relocated last year to Oaklands Stud in Queensland.

In the 12 months since then Pariah added two new stakes-winners to his tally in Vagrant and Ostraka and sired two winners in Hong Kong from four starters.

Pariah sired 64 winners of $3.6million in Australia last season and stands at a fee of just $6,600 at Oaklands Stud this year.
