KermadecHigh class shuttler Teofilo (IRE) is no longer travelling to Australia for Darley, but they have invested in his dual Group I winning son Kermadec, an outstanding Randwick miler that won both the Group I ATC Doncaster Handicap beating Japanese raider Real Impact and ATC George Main Stakes.

A $260,000 NZB Premier purchase for renowned judge Guy Mulcaster, Kermadec was at his best from 1400 to 1600 metres and retired with earnings just shy of $3million.
