First Foal for Stronger

Tara Madgwick - Wednesday August 21

Aquis in Queensland is home to eight stallions and one of them is Group I winning Not a Single Doubt son Stronger, whose first foals are arriving this spring.

A $1,050,000 Inglis Easter purchase for James Harron Bloodstock that ended up winning the Group I Centenary Sprint Cup in Hong Kong, Stronger was a winner at two, three, four and five showing real longevity in his racing career as well as G1 speed.

Stronger filly from Akage.

One of his first foals on the ground is this lovely filly bred by Penelope Crowley from Akage, a nine time metro winner of over $300,000 by Haradasun from the family of Group III winner That’s Not It.

His handsome chestnut good looks appealed to breeders last year and Stronger covered 138 at Aquis and is priced this year at a slightly reduced fee of $9,900.
