Darling View Thoroughbreds Announce 2025 Fees

Tara Madgwick - Thursday May 22

Darling View Thoroughbreds is home to the best stallion in Western Australia and statistically one of the best in the country with Playing God set to remain at a fee of $49,500.

Playing God stands at a fee of $49,500, click for more info.

Rising 18, Playing God runs at 70% winners to runners and 10% stakes-winners to runners so it’s not hard to see why WA breeders have sent him their best mares in recent years.

He has covered 100 plus books of mares for the past four seasons at steadily increasing fees so has a wealth of unraced talent to unleash that should see his star continue to rise.
