Twin Hills Stud Announce 2025 Fees

Tara Madgwick - Friday April 25

Denman may have been retired to green pastures in the Hunter Valley, but Twin Hills Stud will still offer a roster of four stallions to breeders headed by young Group I MRC Blue Diamond winner Daumier and the evergreen Smart Missile.

Daumier has his first weanlings being offered at sales next month.

With his oldest progeny weanlings, Daumier is priced again at $16,500 for his third season and has a number of entries for both the Inglis and Magic Millions weanling sales next month.

Smart Missile is the sire of rising star sprinter Briasa.

Smart Missile is riding high as the sire of rising star  sprinter Briasa.

The dashing grey four year-old gelding has had a breakout season winning the Group I ATC TJ Smith Stakes to take his overall record to seven wins from 10 starts with prizemoney topping $2.7million.

The Hawkes Racing trained sprinter is being viewed as a serious Everest prospect so will be closely followed in the spring.

Smart Missile will also stay at the unchanged fee of $13,200.

Rounding out the roster are Peltzer, who is reduced from $16,500 to $11,000 and Hallowed Crown, who stays unchanged at $8,800.
