First Foal for Flying Artie

Tara Madgwick - Thursday August 9
A dominant winner of the Group I VRC Coolmore Stud Stakes, Flying Artie was the Champion 3YO Sprinter of 2016/2017 and has been a super popular addition at Newgate Farm with his first foals arriving this spring.

He covered 186 mares last season and one of the first to foal has been Barador Stud's stakes-placed Darlin' Jules, who delivered this eye-catching bay colt.

 



"I'm very impressed with my Flying Artie foal. He is of good size, has great bone plenty of quality and very athletic," said Nick Holland of Barador Stud.

"We are definitely using Flying Artie again this season off the back of this colt."

Placed in the Golden Slipper and Blue Diamond, Flying Artie was a brilliantly fast two year-old that trained on at three to be dominant over his peers. A stallion with a diverse pedigree that is completely free of Danehill blood, Flying Artie stands at a fee of $33,000 at Newgate Farm.
