Aquis Stallions put up the CASH! - Breeder Bonus Officiating

Media Release - Thursday August 29

Over the last 5+ years, the Aquis Stallions Breeders Bonus programs have paid out over $1.5million to our clients.

We are pleased to announce our 2024 Stallion Bonus Scheme - the Officiating Breeders Bonus Scheme. This bonus is worth $500,000 to the Breeder of the first two-year-old Stakes-winner from the 2025 foal crop by Triple Group Winner Officiating.

A half-brother to a Champion two-year-old, Officiating is the first son of the elite sire Blame to stand in Australia.

“We are confident that this bonus will be won, and Officiating will join previous Aquis stallions like Pierata, Brave Smash and Royal Meeting to have sired two-year-old stakes winners in their first crop. He’s got a fantastic book of mares ready for him including over 20 of our own mares and the biggest individual shareholder base of any stallion we have stood!”

“We look forward to handing over $500,000 to one lucky breeder!” enthused Jonathan Davies.

Qualifying races include all Stakes races run in Australia with the bonus being paid to the breeder – the person, people or entity named on the 2024 Officiating Service Agreement. To be eligible, two mares must be covered by Officiating in the 2024 season. Aquis owned mares are ineligible for the bonus, increasing your prospect of success.

Remember, the more mares you breed to Officiating, the more chances you have to win $500,000.
