A race-to-race stakes double for Godolphin with the 5-year-old mare Kin coming with a well-timed finish to win the Listed  Sportsbet Village Stakes (1100m) at Caulfield.

Impending Mare Triumphs in Inglis Bracelet

Impending 3YO Wins Listed Aquanita Stakes

Relocated to Larneuk Stud this spring, Lonhro’s dual Group I winning son Impending sired a new stakes-winner on Saturday when progressive three year-old Cool Memory led all the way to win the Listed WATC Aquanita Stakes (2000m) at Belmont.

Lauda Sion and Impending New for Larneuk Stud - Bigger, Better and Bolder

When Larneuk Stud, the prolific Victorian stud and nursery, was briefly offered for sale last year, principal, Neville Murdoch realised he was attached to the farm and the industry in a way that defies explanation.
