Media Release - Wednesday May 23
Noor Elaine Farm is pleased to announce the arrival of Ilovethiscity to its Euroa based stallion barn.

Ilovethiscity

Ilovethiscity won the Group I Randwick Guineas and was prepared by astute trainer Grahame Begg for his syndicate of owners.

In April, two year old El Dorado Dreaming (Ilovethiscity x Solanas) put her sire on the map when she stormed over the top of Oohood to win the Group 1 Sires Produce Stakes at Royal Randwick.

The victory placed Ilovethiscity within an elite group of sires that have both won a Group 1 and produced a Group 1 winner.

He has also produced the likes of stakes placed Chapel City, city winners Plenty To Like, Ilovevegas, Brisvegas and City of Dreams together with Singapore winner Filibuster. Talented 2YO gelding Paghman has won his past two starts and has a strong future.

Noor Elaine Farm and the syndicate owners wish to give Ilovethiscity every chance to serve a strong book of mares and have reduced his fee in order to attract broodmare owners to the stallion.

All at the farm are pleased that the syndicate which owns Ilovethiscity has entrusted Noor Elaine Farm to continue his stud career.

Ilovethiscity will stand for a fee of $4,400 (including GST) in 2018. 

All enquiries can be directed to Mark Calwell on 0417 547 394 or George Yannas on 0400 145 841.
